The reticulum fibers are present in reduced num- ber, and the blood vessels are evident. X500. (Jackson '04.) ('90) described fuchsinophile (Altmann) granules in atrophic fat cells, which probably correspond to the lipoidal fat granules mentioned by subsequent observers (cf. Cramer '20). Herter ('97) described the replacement of the subcutaneous fat and adipose bone marrow by a gelatinous substance in pigs during fat starvation. The mucoid (or "gelatinous") atrophy of Bichat and Virchow is indeed especially characteristic in the adipose bone marrow during inanition. Neumann ('68), Feigel ('72), and Hoyer ('73) described in starved animals the transforma- tion of the marrow fat cells into a network of branching cells lying in a hyalin, mucin-containing ground substance. Fenger ('73), Ricklin ('79), Geelmuyden ('86), and Helly ('06) described a similar involution of the adipose marrow in various human cachexias. Further details were added by Bizzozero ('69,.
