In order to establish a good experimental model for comparative studies of the brain ventricular system in mammals, a resin-cast model and scanning electron microscopy were employed to examine the rat brain ventricular system. From the resin-cast model, we found that the gross morphology of the brain ventricular systems of rats is simpler than that of humans. From scanning electron microscopy, local variations of ependymal cells lining the rat brain ventricle were noted. Most areas of the ventricles were lined by ciliated ependymal cells arranged in regular rows, whereas in some other areas non-ciliated ependymal cells were also observed. Epiplexus cells and supraependymal cells were also encountered on the top surface of the choroid epithelium, and ependymal cells in certain area such as the pineal recess.
为了建立一个用于哺乳动物脑室系统比较研究的良好实验模型，采用树脂铸型模型和扫描电子显微镜对大鼠脑室系统进行检查。从树脂铸型模型中，我们发现大鼠脑室系统的总体形态比人类的更简单。通过扫描电子显微镜，注意到大鼠脑室衬里室管膜细胞的局部变化。脑室的大多数区域由排列成规则行的纤毛室管膜细胞衬里，而在其他一些区域也观察到了非纤毛室管膜细胞。在脉络丛上皮的顶表面还遇到了丛间细胞和室管膜上细胞，以及在某些区域如松果体隐窝中的室管膜细胞。
