The ultrastructure of the Harderian gland of the rabbit has been studied. The gland can be divided into two lobes (pink and white) by the naked eye. At the microscopic level, their epithelial cells differ morphologically, the vacuoles in the cells of the pink lobe being large, while those of the white lobe, small. In addition to the pink and white lobes, an intermediate area can be distinguished around the boundary between the two lobes on the basis of epithelial cell compositions. The acini on this area consist of two epithelial cell types, one is similar to that found in the white lobe, the second consists of the same cells as the pink lobe Myoepithelial cells are located between the secretory epithelium and its basal lamina. Mast cells, macrophages and plasma cells are found in the interstitial connective tissue of the Harderian gland.
对家兔哈德氏腺的超微结构进行了研究。该腺体肉眼可分为两叶（粉红色和白色）。在显微镜下，它们的上皮细胞形态不同，粉红色叶细胞中的液泡大，而白色叶细胞中的液泡小。除了粉红色和白色叶外，根据上皮细胞组成，在两叶之间的边界周围可区分出一个中间区域。该区域的腺泡由两种上皮细胞类型组成，一种与白色叶中发现的相似，另一种与粉红色叶中的细胞相同。肌上皮细胞位于分泌上皮及其基膜之间。在哈德氏腺的间质结缔组织中发现了肥大细胞、巨噬细胞和浆细胞。
