In 372 full grown non-gravid female guinea pigs, the average number of Kurloff cells in blood was 402/mm3, s.d.: 366.5. The distribution was positively skewed. This distribution is subject to seasonal variations since the figures are significantly higher from the beginning of May to the end of October than from the beginning of November to the end of April. In other samples of guinea pigs, both total darkness and continuous illumination significantly lowered the number of Kurloff cells in blood. The average number of Kurloff cells is stabilized during an LD 12:12 on both sides of vernal equinox. The Kurloff cell is a new example of a photoperiodically sensitive blood cell. Variations in its production do not appear to be related to the estrogen peak of the estrus cycle. These variations may perhaps be a function of the derivative of the duration of illumination. |
