Abstract Observations of thick smears of marrow obtained from the femur, tibia, humerus, sternum, and ribs (in rats), showed that in the first three bones, the number of mast cells was much higher than in the latter two bones. A method for the quantitative estimation of the total number of nucleated cells and of mast cells in the bone marrow of rats is presented. The method involves dilution of the marrow, in a red cell pipet, with a 1:50,000 solution of toluidine blue in 3 per cent acetic acid. This method confirmed the results of mast-cell distribution obtained in the study of marrow smears.

The aim of this study was to investigate mast cell (MCs) distribution in the vicinity of the needle tract formed after acupuncture in Zusanli (ST36) acupoint in rats. MCs were detected by histochemistry, immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy, and evaluated quantitatively. It was established that after acupuncture in ST36 acupoint the integrity of the epithelium, dermis, subcutaneous connective tissue, fascia, epimysium and striated muscles was disrupted and folded to the direction of the needle tract. In the thickened connective tissue MCs were observed close to the needle tract, without visible differences in their number along the tract, but most of them were with signs of degranulation, possibly due to acupuncture. It could be presumed that acupuncture in ST36 caused recruitment and activation of MCs followed by degranulation which most probably influenced the local microenvironment.
