Abstract
In ciliated cells of thymic cysts in Nude mice, ciliary rootlets are constantly and closely related to smooth endoplasmic reticulum and clear vesicles. This special association suggests that this structure does not play only an anchoring role but must be involved in the general metabolism of the cilium.Keywords
