The rat adrenal medulla architecture was examined using a combination of medullary blood vessel reconstructions and transmission electron microscopy. The peripheral radicles of the central vein and the medullary capillaries of the medullary arteries were thus precisely identified in the electron microscopic observations. The observations confirmed that the peripheral segments of the central vein were sinusoidal vessels with an attenuated and fenestrated endothelial wall. No ultrastructural differences were observed between segments lined by epinephrine-storing cells and those lined by norepinephrine-storing cells. The findings suggest that these peripheral segments of the adrenal central vein were sites of cortical hormonal effects on the adrenal medulla. The vessel structure does not support the hypothesis that medullary chromaffin-cell development is controlled by selective distribution of adrenal blood vessels.
