The morphology and evolutional significance of the pineal body : being part I of a contribution to the study of the epiphysis cerebri with an interpretation of the morphological, physiological and clinical evidence . ssue. Cutore believes it to be anorgan of such complex structure, constituted of neuroglia,epithelium, lymphatic and connective tissues, so arranged as toform acini and so highly vascular, that it cannot be consideredto be in a state of regression as is claimed by Moller,278 Charpy,62Dejerine,85 and others. Indeed, the highly specialized and char-acteristic structure of the pineal body is sufficient justificationto attribute to it an internal secretory function. Galasescuand Urechia (10)137 found in the vicinity of some of the bloodvessels round and oval cells with deeply staining nuclei situatedcentrally in a cytoplasm which stains with acid stains, ,eosin and fuchsin. The cytoplasm is granular and well demar-cated. These acidophiles resemble those seen in the para-thyroids. The authors propose to term these cells the para-vascular acidophiles. They believe these elements play a defi-nite part in the internal secretion of the pineal body. 106 FREDERICK TILNEY AND LUTHER F. WARREN. B
