Note the Negri bodies, which are cellular inclusions found most frequently in the pyramidal cells of Ammon's horn, and the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum. They are also found in the cells of the medulla and various other ganglia.]] '''Negri bodies''' are [[eosinophilic]], sharply outlined, [[pathognomonic]] inclusion bodies (2–10 [[micrometre|µm]] in diameter) found in the [[cytoplasm]] of certain [[nerve cell]]s containing the virus of [[rabies]], especially in [[Ammon's horn]] of the [[hippocampus]]. ==External links== * {{eMedicineDictionary|Negri+bodies}} * {{WhoNamedIt|synd|2491}} * [http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/virol/rabies.htm Slide at pathmicro.med.sc.edu - see bottom] * [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NP5CYphae5Y See pathology video of Negri bodies] {{pathology-stub}} [[Category:Histopathology]] [[Category:Microbiology]] [[Category:Rabies]] [[ja:ネグリ小体]] [[pl:Ciałka Negriego]] [[pt:Negri]]
