Visceral and parietal peritoneum of adult Wistar rats was studied by means of transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The structure of the peritoneum follows a general plan: mesothelium, basal lamina, and submesothelial connective tissue layer. Two basic types of mesothelial cells are described: flat and high (cubic), as well as transitional forms. A regularity of distribution of these cells in the visceral and parietal peritoneal sheets, and in the cover of individual organs and regions is described. A functional characterization of the different types of mesothelial cells is attempted, based on the differences of their cytoplasmic organization. The involvement of the mesothelium in the homeostasis in the peritoneal cavity is discussed.
采用透射电子显微镜和扫描电子显微镜对成年Wistar大鼠的脏腹膜和壁腹膜进行了研究。腹膜的结构遵循一般模式：间皮、基膜和间皮下结缔组织层。描述了两种基本类型的间皮细胞：扁平型和高（立方）型，以及过渡形式。描述了这些细胞在内脏和壁腹膜片层、各个器官和区域的被膜中的分布规律。基于不同类型间皮细胞胞质组织的差异，尝试对其进行功能表征。讨论了间皮在腹膜腔稳态中的作用。
