Changes in the spatial organization of actin filaments of nuclear erythrocytes and leukocytes during their migration in fish, frogs and birds have been studied by the method
of confocal laser scanning microscopy. It has been shown that, during movement of cells, the reorganization of cytoskeleton microfilaments in erythrocytes is similar to that in
leukocytes. During migration, red blood cells of amphibious and birds form pseudopodia filled with bunches in parallel laid actin filaments. Erythrocytes in fish do not form
pseudopodia. Similar to leukocytes change in the structure of the actin cytoskeleton in nuclear erythrocytes determines the ability of red blood cells to reactions of migration
and phagocytosis.
Key words: actin cytoskeleton, confocal laser scanning microscopy, nuclear erythrocytes, leukocytes, migration of cells
