In the third ventricle of wild rat, Golgi-Cox-positive tanycytes of varied shape and size are arranged with their perikarya in the ependymal layer and basal processes extending into the core of the subependyma. The basal processes may be smooth and slender, or barbed and branching, and often take ci...
