不同发育时期哲罗鱼卵黄的超微结构

应用透射电镜观察了不同发育时期哲罗鱼(Hucho taimen)卵黄的超微结构.根据哲罗鱼卵黄物质在卵母细胞中的加工合成、积累以及卵母细胞中参与卵黄颗粒形成的细胞器的变化,可将该鱼卵黄发生分为4个特征时期,即卵黄发生前期、卵黄泡期、卵黄积累期和卵黄积累完成期.卵黄发生前期是指卵母细胞发育过程中的卵黄物质开始积累前的时期,此时期核仁不断分裂,出现线粒体云和早期的滤泡细胞层、基层和鞘细胞层;卵黄泡期特点主要是细胞器不断变化产生卵黄泡和皮层泡;卵黄积累期的滤泡膜由内向外依次为放射带、颗粒细胞层、基层和鞘细胞层,此时外源性卵黄前体物质不断经过血液汇集于鞘细胞层,后经微胞饮作用穿过胶原纤维组成的基层,经过多泡体作用转运至颗粒细胞内,在细胞内经过加工和修饰形成小的卵黄蛋白颗粒,卵黄蛋白颗粒经微胞饮穿过放射带进入卵母细胞边缘形成的空泡中,不断积累形成卵黄球;进入卵黄积累完成期,卵黄球体积变大,向细胞中心聚集,填满大部分卵母细胞,卵黄积累完毕.     

凡纳滨对虾卵母细胞卵黄发生的超微结构

利用电镜研究凡纳滨对虾卵母细胞卵黄发生的全过程。结果表明 :凡纳滨对虾卵黄的发生是双源性的。卵黄发生早、中期是内源性卵黄大量合成的阶段 ,卵黄发生中、后期则以外源性卵黄的合成为主。内源性卵黄主要由内质网、线粒体、核糖体、溶酶体、高尔基器等多种胞器活跃参与形成。其中数量众多的囊泡状粗面内质网是形成内源性卵黄粒的最主要的细胞器 ;部分线粒体参与卵黄粒的合成并自身最终演变为卵黄粒 ;丰富的游离核糖体合成了大量致密的蛋白质颗粒并在卵质中直接聚集融合成无膜的卵黄粒 ;溶酶体通过吞噬、消化内含物来形成卵黄粒和脂滴 ,且方式多样 ;高尔基器不直接参与形成卵黄粒。外源性卵黄主要通过卵质膜的微吞饮活动从卵周隙或卵泡细胞中摄取外源物质来形成     

罗氏沼虾卵母细胞细胞器与卵黄发生的关系

作者研究了罗氏沼虾卵母细胞细胞器与卵黄发生的关系。细胞核物质通过核孔与细胞质进行物质交换,由核仁而来的核糖体前体物在细胞质中形成大量的核糖体。一部分核糖体附着在内质网囊泡的膜上,形成粗糙型内质网。粗糙型内质同囊泡具有合成和运输卵黄物质的功能。一部分核糖体是游离的,它们可在细胞质中合成致密蛋白质小颗粒,随后这些颗粒逐渐聚集融合成致密的卵黄粒。溶酶体可吞噬这些由游离核糖体形成的蛋白质颗粒团或其它膜状物,并将它们消化、融合,从而形成大的卵黄粒。部分线粒体参与了卵黄粒的合成并最终演变成卵黄体。微丝也参与了卵黄粒的形成。

东方扁虾卵子发生的超微结构

根据卵细胞的形态、内部结构特征及卵母细胞与滤泡细胞之间的关系,东方扁虾的卵子发生可划分为卵原细胞、卵黄发生前卵母细胞、卵黄发生卵母细胞和成熟卵母细胞等四个时期。卵原细胞胞质稀少,胞器以滑面内质网为主。卵黄发生前卵母细胞核明显膨大,特称为生发泡;在靠近核外膜的胞质中可观察到核仁外排物。卵黄发生卵母细胞逐渐为滤泡细胞所包围;卵黄合成旺盛,胞质中因而形成并积累了越来越多的卵黄粒。东方扁虾卵母细胞的卵黄发生是二源的。游离型核糖体率先参与内源性卵黄合成形成无膜卵黄粒。粗面内质网是内源性卵黄形成的主要胞器。滑面内质网、线粒体和溶酶体以多种方式活跃地参与卵黄粒形成。卵周隙内的外源性物质有两个来源:滤泡细胞的合成产物和血淋巴携带、转运的卵黄蛋白前体物。这些外源性物质主要通过质膜的微吞饮作用和微绒毛的吸收作用这两种方式进入卵母细胞,进而形成外源性卵黄。内源性和外源性的卵黄物质共同参与成熟卵母细胞中富含髓样小体的卵黄粒的形成。卵壳的形成和微绒毛的回缩被认为是东方扁虾卵母细胞成熟的形态学标志。       

莫桑比克非鲫卵黄形成的电镜观察

运用透射电镜观察了莫桑比克非鲫卵母细胞的生长.根据卵母细胞的大小和内部结构特征,将其分为四个时期:卵母细胞生长早期:卵黄泡形成期:卵黄积累期:卵黄积累完成期.本文着重研究了主要卵黄成分--卵黄球的形成过程.卵黄球属外源性卵黄,由卵母细胞通过微胞饮作用吸收肝脏合成的卵黄蛋白原后形成的.在卵黄大量积累前,卵母细胞内的线粒体和多泡体聚集成团,构成卵黄核,继而线粒体大量增殖,线粒体形状发生改变,形成同心多层膜结构,为大量的卵黄物质积累提供场所.最终形成的卵黄球由被膜、卵黄结晶体和两者之间的非结晶区三部分组成.       

锯缘青蟹卵黄发生期卵母细胞和卵泡细胞之间的结构变化

通过电镜研究了锯缘青蟹二次卵巢发育过程中卵黄发生期（分为初期和后期）卵母细胞表面的结构和胞质的变化。卵黄发生初期分为：内源性卵黄发生阶段和有卵泡细胞直接参与的外源性卵黄合成阶段,前者特征为：在卵母细胞中充满了内质网泡,在泡内有不同程度的卵黄物质合成,此时在卵母细胞的表面区域,可见很多卵泡细胞向卵母细胞表面迁移,并包围卵母细胞。后者其特征是在卵母细胞的表面,有大量的胞饮小泡出现在卵膜的内面,随着两细胞表面膜的逐步融合和胞饮作用加强最后形成链锁状结构,胞质中靠近卵质周围有卵黄体的积极合成和大更换 脂肪滴积累,在此阶段的后期,卵泡细胞质已基本吸收完毕,卵泡细胞膜和卵母细胞膜融合,某些界面已无膜结构。卵黄发生后期在亲蟹孵出幼体后的第11d至第27d基本结束,此期也主要以外源性卵黄发生为主,在卵母细胞的周围,卵泡细胞迅速扩大,其间分布着大量的大小不同的囊泡和线粒体,在接近卵母细胞表面,还常可见大量的脂肪滴存在。卵泡细胞与卵母细胞间其膜结构完全消失,从而可使滤泡大片细胞质直接融入卵母细胞中,以后随着卵黄发生的进一步发展,卵母细胞与卵泡细胞的交界面逐步形成一个网状的膜结构屏障,同时在卵巢中可见正在降解的卵母细胞,在卵黄发生近结束以后,在卵母细胞的表面,逐步形成两层卵膜,这时的卵母细胞质中几乎充满了卵黄体和脂肪滴。     

秀丽白虾卵母细胞不同发育阶段滤泡细胞的超微结构

用透射电镜技术观察了秀丽白虾(Exopalaemon modestus)不同发育阶段卵巢滤泡细胞的超微结构及其与卵母细胞的联系。随着卵母细胞的发育进程,滤泡细胞经历了发育和退化过程。在卵黄大量发生期,卵母细胞被多层滤泡细胞包绕,血窦伸入层间;滤泡细胞内含有丰富的内质网、高尔基体、线粒体、核糖体及原始卵黄颗粒。在卵子成熟期,滤泡细胞由内向外依次解体,血窦萎缩。这些形态变化支持滤泡细胞具有吸收血液营养、合成并向卵母细胞输送原始卵黄物质的功能的观点。与锯缘青蟹、长毛对虾和中华绒螯蟹的滤泡细胞的作用方式稍有不同。     

Ultrahistology of oogenesis and vitellogenesis in the spider mite Tetranychus urticae

Histology of the ovary of the spider mite Tetranychus urticae is described light and electron microscopically with special reference to oogenesis and vitellogenesis of this mite. Morphology of the ovary is comparable to the typical sac-like chelicerate ovary with oocytes protruding from the ovarian surface, thus resulting in a grape-like appearance. According to different oogenetic stages, a germ, pre-vitellogenic and vitellogenic region can be observed. Oogonia and primary oocytes characterized by extranuclear material or 'yolk nuclei' are situated in the germ region. Primary oocytes develop into three-nucleated nurse cells situated in the periphery of the pre-vitellogenic region, and into pre-vitellogenic oocytes protruding from the ovarian surface. Growth of oocytes is performed while they are in ovarian pouches by uptake of nurse cell cytoplasm and following extraovarian yolk precursors. Intraoocyte yolk synthesis interpreted from altered cytoplasmic organelles also occurs. Processes taking place during oogenesis and vitellogenesis in T. urticae are compared to published information on yolk synthesis of other animal species.     

Oogenesis and oocytes

The morphological features of polychaete ovarian morphology and oogenesis are reviewed. Some basic information on ovarian structure and/or oogenesis is known for slightly more than half of recognized polychaete families although comprehensive studies of oogenesis have been conducted on 0.1 of described species. Relative to other major metazoan groups, ovarian morphology is highly variable in the Polychaeta. While some species appear to lack a defined ovary, most have paired organs that are segmentally repeated to varying degrees depending on the family. Ovaries vary widely in their location but are most frequently associated with the coelomic peritoneum, parapodial connective tissue, or elements of the circulatory system. The structural complexity of the ovary is correlated with the type of oogenesis expressed by the species. In some polychaetes, extraovarian oogenesis occurs in which previtellogenic oocytes are released into the coelom from a simple ovary where differentiation occurs in a solitary fashion or in association with nurse cells or follicle cells. In other species, intraovarian oogenesis occurs in which oocytes undergo vitellogenesis within the ovary, often in association with follicle cells that may provide nutrition. Vitellogenesis probably includes both autosynthetic and heterosynthetic processes; autosynthesis involves the manufacture of yolk bodies via the proteosynthetic organelles of the oocyte whereas heterosynthesis involves the extraovarian production of female-specific yolk proteins that are incorporated into the oocyte through a receptor-mediated process of endocytosis. Variation in the speed of egg production varies widely and appears to be correlated with the vitellogenic mechanism employed. Mature ova display a wide range of egg envelope morphologies that often show some intrafamilial similarities.

取食雄蜂蛹粉对龟纹瓢虫和异色瓢虫卵黄发生的影响

本文比较了龟纹瓢虫Proylea japonica和异色瓢虫Harmonia axyridis取食蚜虫和取食雄蜂蛹粉时的卵黄发生情况。当取食雄蜂蛹粉时,体内卵黄蛋白出现迟,积累速度慢,产卵前期长。但用保幼激素类似物ZR512点滴处理后则能达到与食蚜对照相当的水平。ZR512对取食雄蜂蛹粉瓢虫的作用显著大于取食岈虫者。进一步的研究表明,ZR512能促进这两种瓢虫取食雄蜂蛹粉,但对成虫的体重没有明显的影响。因此推论,雄蜂蛹粉基本能够满足这两种瓢虫生殖的营养需要,但对其内分泌有一定的影响,使瓢虫处于类似生殖滞育的状态。本文根据不同食物条件对卵黄蛋白发生的影响不同,建议用卵黄蛋白的量作为生理指标,以快速初步筛选和评估人工饲料。     

泥螺卵黄发生过程中线粒体的变化

利用透射电镜（TEM）技术研究了泥螺卵黄发生过程中线粒体的形态结构的变化特点,结果表明,从卵黄发生早期到晚期,卵母细胞内线粒体经历了从外部形态到内部结构的一系列变化。卵黄合成初期的卵母细胞内,线粒体多,结构典型,仅部分线粒体外膜破裂,嵴 和内膜逐渐消失,卵黄发生中期,线粒体基质空泡化,嵴和内膜消失,腔内充满颗粒状物质,最后演变成卵黄颗粒,随着卵母细胞的发育,卵黄颗粒的数量和直径逐渐增加,卵黄发生后期,卵质中胞器不发达,细胞质中充满卵黄颗粒,在卵黄颗粒之间仅有少量线粒体存在,提供细胞代谢所需的能量,此外,对线粒体在卵黄形成中的功能,去向及行为变化等 进行了讨论。     

Vitellogenesis in spiders: first analysis of protein changes in different reproductive stages of Polybetes pythagoricus

Vitellogenesis represents one of the most vital processes of oviparous species during which various proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids are synthesized and stored inside the developing oocytes. Through analyzing protein changes in the midgut diverticula, hemolymph, and ovaries of females throughout the different vitellogenic stages of the spider Polybetes pythagoricus, we determined the origin of the different proteins involved in the formation of lipovitellins (LVs) along with the existence of a linkage between the hemocyanin and this vital process. An increase in the total protein content of the midgut diverticula, hemolymph, and ovary occurred throughout vitellogenesis followed by a decrease in those levels after laying. The presence of hemocyanin in egg and in LV2, as well as its accumulation in the ovary throughout the vitellogenesis process, was determined. Considering that all biologic processes depend on the correct structure and function of proteins, this study establishes, for the first time for the Order Araneae, the coexistence of three different origins of vitellogenesis-related proteins: one predominantly ovarian involving peptides of 120, 75, 46, and 30 kDa; another extraovarian one originated from the midgut diverticula and represented by a 170 kDa peptide, and a third hemolymphatic one, represented by the 67 kDa peptide.

     

Reproductive biology of British pycnogonids (oögenesis and the reproductive cycle)

There is little information concerning the reproductive biology of the Pycnogonida. Information obtained by the authors concerning the female reproductive system of British pycnogonids is discussed and evaluated.
Oögenesis and vitellogenesis are similar to the processes described in some annelids and crustaceans. Vitellogenesis contrasts with the process in insects where the majority of the yolk is produced extra-oöcytically and is transported to the developing oocyte, whereas in the Pycnogonida the majority of the yolk is produced intra-öocytically with only a small extra-oocyte contribution. This represents a fairly primitive arthropodan type of vitellogenesis.
The reproductive cycles of several British pycnogonid species have been studied by regular sampling at different localities over long periods of time. This has provided information on population dynamics, particularly life-span, migratory movements and fecundity.
Although similarities exist between species there are also marked differences in that some species produce only a single new generation each year, whereas in others the presence of a second population of mature ova in the same year may enable the production of a second brood, if conditions are favourable.     

Morphological characterization of the ovary and oocytes vitellogenesis of the tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Latreille, 1806) (Acari: Ixodidae)

This study presents the morphology of the ovary, as well as the process of the vitellogenesis in oocytes of the tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus. The ovary of these individuals is of the panoistic type; therefore, it lacks nurse cells. This organ consists of a single tubular structure, continuous, and composed of a wall formed by small epithelial cells with rounded nuclei which delimit the lumen. The oocytes in the different developmental stages in this tick species were classified into five stages (I-V). They remain attached to the ovary during vitellogenesis by a cellular pedicel and afterwards the mature oocytes (stage V) are released into the ovary lumen.     

Induction of oocyte maturation at stages of incomplete vitellogenesis in toads and the starred sturgeon

The intracellular injection of cytoplasm from the maturing oocytes of X. laevis and A. stellatus in oocytes of the same species which did not complete the vitellogenesis and are not able to mature under the effect of progesterone resulted in the disintegration of the germinal vesicle membrane in the oocytes of all sizes under study. In X. laevis the ability to mature under the effect of progesterone appears in the oocytes with the diameter over 1.1 mm. Cycloheximide inhibits the germinal vesicle membrane disintegration in the X. laevis oocytes, but not in those of A. stellatus. Cycloheximide inhibits the pseudogastrulation which was observed in the X. laevis oocytes with the diameter from 0.8 to 1.4 mm.
