Morphology of the bovine epididymis.

The epididymis of the bull was divided into six regions, and morphological differences between regions were studied. The epithelium of all regions contained four cell types: principal and basal epithelial cells, and intraepithelial lymphocytes and macrophages. The epithelium of regions II-V also contained a few apical cells. Principal cells of all regions possessed an endocytotic apparatus including stereocilia underlain by canaliculi, coated vesicles, and subapical vacuoles (up to 1 micron in diameter); however, large vacuoles with a flocculent content and multivesicular bodies (up to 5 microns in diameter) were most numerous in regions II, III, and IV. The unique features of principal cells of region I were the presence of well-developed Golgi bodies, few lipid droplets, and whorls of smooth endoplasmic reticulum in the supranuclear cytoplasm. Numerous mitochondria, distended cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum, and dense granules characterized the infranuclear cytoplasm of the principal cells of regions II-VI; however, these features were more developed in region V. Apical cells were characterized by the apical location of the nucleus, many mitochondria in the apical cytoplasm, and few microvilli at the luminal border. Basal cells with few cytoplasmic lipid droplets were present throughout the length of the epididymis but appeared more numerous in region V. Intraepithelial lymphocytes were present at all levels of the epithelium but were never seen in the lumen. Intraepithelial macrophages containing heterogeneous granules, eccentric nuclei, and pseudopods were invariably seen near the basal area of the epithelium in all regions. These observations are discussed in an effort to define the role of each cell type in the epididymal epithelium.
