The extramural aortico-pulmonary bodies of the domestic fowl were analysed in electron micrographs by point-counting morphometry. The Type I cell constituted about 34% of the total volume of the parenchyma, whereas the supporting cells (Type II cells, pericytes and Schwann cells) constituted about 26%. The blood capillaries occupied the lowest volume density of about 5%. The mitochondria and the dense-cored vesicles occupied about the same volume (8%) of the Type I cell cytoplasm. The results obtained in the present study are compared with other similar studies on the aortic and carotid bodies of mammals.
通过点计数形态测量法对家鸡的壁外主动脉-肺动脉体进行了电子显微镜分析。I型细胞约占实质总体积的34%，而支持细胞（II型细胞、周细胞和雪旺细胞）约占26%。毛细血管所占的体积密度最低，约为5%。线粒体和致密核心囊泡在I型细胞质中所占体积大致相同（8%）。将本研究所得结果与其他关于哺乳动物主动脉体和颈动脉体的类似研究进行了比较。
