New York, 1956. Electron Microscopy of Chick Embryo Thyroi(d R. Stole, P. Blanquet, A. P. Lachapele, R. Maraud, and A. Magimel Fondation Bergonie and Facidte de Medecine, Bordeaux According to a previous investigation the differ- entiation of the chick embryo thyroid shows two successive periods (18). In the first one, before 12 days, the thyroid anlage concentrates very low quan- tities of radioiodine and is practically devoid of follicles. During the second one, the uptake of radio- iodine raises suddenly and strongly together with the differentiation of the follicular structure. Differ- ence between the two periods is closely associated with colloid synthesis. The present investigation was undertaken to de- termine to what extent this phenomenon could be related to the development of the c\toplasmic cana- licular structures which were described in the thyroid of adult mammals (4, 14. 15. 23. 24). Normal thyroid glands were obtained from 36 embryos
