鲤胚胎孵化腺细胞

鲤胚胎孵化腺为单细胞腺体,发生于外胚层,可特异地被PAS染色。最早可在眼色素期检验出孵化腺细胞(Hatching gland cell,HGC)它们主要分布在头部腹面及头部与卵黄囊连接处。开始,HGC位于表皮细胞下面,随发育迁移到胚胎表面。根据扫描和透射电镜观察,在分泌孵化酶的前后,HGC区表面细胞呈鸡冠花状和疣状两种突起。前者系HGC处于分泌孵化酶期间;后者系HGC业已完成分泌作用,由于相邻的表皮细胞活动而形成的。HGC内富有粗面内质网、线粒体、核糖体和高尔基体,并由后者合成酶原颗粒。HGC在完成分泌作用后,仍留在表皮中,以后逐渐退化,但在孵化后30h仍可见残留的HGC。

动物孵化酶(hatching enzyme,HE)是早期胚胎在特定发育阶段由孵化腺细胞产生和分泌的,在动物早期胚胎孵化中具有关键性作用。孵化腺细胞(hatching gland cell,HGC)一般为单细胞腺体,是从胚胎发育到特定阶段(孵化前)出现、至胚胎孵出后的特定时期消失的一时性细胞(transient type ofcells)。完全分化的HGC内充满了低电子密度的酶原颗粒(孵化酶原颗粒),在鱼胚中的分布因物种而异。在大多数鱼中,HGC分布在胚体的外表面和/或卵黄囊中,一般为外胚层来源。如在虹蹲鱼HGC分布在胚体的前表面、卵黄囊、咽部、鳃的内表面及外表面,属于外胚层来源。而日本鳉鱼HGC     

河川沙塘鳢孵化腺的发生及孵化酶的分泌

利用光学显微镜和扫描电镜观察了河川沙塘鳢Odontobutis potamophila(Gnther)孵化腺的发生及孵化酶的分泌过程。河川沙塘鳢的孵化腺为单层细胞腺体,发生于外胚层。孵化腺(Hatching gland,HG)最早发生自眼晶体形成期的胚胎,初发生时孵化腺细胞(Hatching gland cells,HGCs)分布于头部腹面及其与卵黄囊连接处。随着胚胎的发育,HG仍以单层细胞分布于胚体和卵黄囊的外表面,HGCs数量急剧增多,细胞体积增大,分布范围更加广泛。至眼黑色素出现期的胚胎,HGCs的数量达到大约900-1200个,广泛分布于胚胎头部两侧、头部腹面及其与卵黄囊连接处、卵黄囊的前腹面。HGCs大多呈椭圆形,短径为5-8μm,长径为7-12μm,在HE染色中呈粉红色。至孵化前期时,孵化酶颗粒自HGCs顶部的开口分泌出来,分泌颗粒呈圆球形,直径为0.5-1.0μm,有的以单体的形式存在,有的粘结成团。孵化酶进入卵周液,对卵膜内层进行消化和降解,使胚胎破膜而出。孵化后2d,HGCs便从表皮中消失。

水热环境对中国石龙子孵化卵、孵化成功率及孵化幼体特征的影响

用8种水热条件孵化中国石龙子（Eumeces chinensis）卵,观测孵化卵质量变化、胚胎利用卵内物质和能量及孵出坳体特征,孵化卵因净吸水增重,卵增重与入孵卵质量、孵化温度和基质湿度有关。孵出幼体湿重的处理间差异主要是因为幼体水分含量不同。温度显著影响孵化期、孵化卵吸水量、胚胎利用孵内物质和能量几乎所有被检的幼体特征;温度甚至影响胚胎动用卵壳无机物。然而,在24－32℃范围内,温度对卵孵化成功率无显著的影响。32℃孵出幼体比较低于此温度的孵出幼体发育差,表现为躯干小、未利用的卵黄多。此外,32℃孵出幼体的运动表现比低温孵出幼体差,表现为特定体长（snout-vent length,SVL）的疾跑速小于低温孵出幼体,表明高温孵化卵对孵出幼体的运动能力有不利的影响,潮湿基质中旗子同幼体的体长和尾长大于干燥基质中孵出的幼体,并特征性地具有较小的剩余卵黄。24℃胚胎发育能耗较大,胚胎从卵壳动用的无机物较少。温度影响孵出幼体的体形和头部大小,30℃孵出幼体的尾长最大,32℃孵出幼体的头部最小,其质湿度对孵出幼体的体形和头部大小无显著的影响。温度对孵出幼体特征的影响与湿度的影响无关。孵化水热环境诱导的幼体大小、质量和形态差异可能对幼体的生存和适应性具有重要的影响。26－30℃为孵化中国石龙子卵的适宜温度范围。     

亲本繁殖和胚胎孵化温度对斑马鱼孵化表现的影响

亲本效应(parental effect)指亲代的表现型及其所经历的环境因素而非基因型对子代表现型差异和适应性的影响,对子代适合度的维持与提高具有重要生态学意义。为探究亲本效应对鱼类胚胎发育可塑性的影响,本研究选取卵生鱼类斑马鱼(Danio rerio)为实验对象,采用2×2双因素设计,测定了不同亲本繁殖温度(22、28℃)和不同胚胎孵化温度(22、28℃)及其交互作用对斑马鱼孵化表现(孵化率、胚胎死亡率、初孵仔鱼畸形率、孵化历时、初始孵化时间、结束孵化时间)的影响。结果表明：亲本繁殖和胚胎孵化温度交互作用对斑马鱼胚胎死亡率、初始孵化时间、结束孵化时间、孵化历时等均有显著影响(P<0.05),亲本繁殖与胚胎孵化温度相一致时胚胎的死亡率更低、孵化时间更短;斑马鱼孵化表现受亲本效应(代际发育可塑性)和子代发育环境(代内发育可塑性)的双重影响,亲本效应对早期生活史阶段鱼类表型特征的塑造有重要作用。

X射线照射成熟金鱼对于仔鱼胚胎发育的影响

成熟金鱼受1,000伦琴X射线照射后,所产的卵降低了受精率及孵化率,延长了孵化时间。在雌雄同时照射的一组中,孵化时胚胎全部是畸形,受照射雌鱼与正常雄鱼交配所产仔鱼孵化时有40%以上为畸形。畸形胚胎的外部变态为胸腔膨大,卵黄囊积聚体液,脊尾短或弯曲,头部分化不完整,眼分化不完整或缺少色素,下颚扩大等。X射线影响下,胚胎产生的主要缺陷为神经系统特别是脑部和尾部的组成物质受损伤,这些结果表明:胚胎的分化可能在生殖细胞时期已开始,生殖细胞受到了损伤,影响了某些控制以后器官分化的物质,使受精后细胞的分化发生了失调,得不到正常的发育所致。     

盐度对条石鲷胚胎发育的影响

为了确定条石鲷胚胎孵化的适宜盐度,在试验水温为23.0℃～25.2℃条件下,设置了8个盐度组进行条石鲷胚胎孵化试验,研究了盐度对条石鲷胚胎发育的影响。结果表明:低盐度和高盐度对胚胎有持续性伤害,均可造成胚胎和卵黄球在卵裂期收缩而死亡,一部分胚胎在原肠期之后收缩死亡;低盐度可造成初孵仔鱼畸形率增加,主要引起仔鱼脊柱"L"形和"C"形弯曲,而高盐度可导致胚体胚孔关闭以后尾部的畸形发育;通过分析各盐度组的孵化率、仔鱼畸形率和盐度之间的关系,得出健康仔鱼比例(PHL)和盐度(S)的关系式为PHL=-0.0018S2-0.1135S-0.8853(R2=0.948),以PHL70%为适宜孵化盐度范围,以PHL90%为最适孵化盐度范围,由此确定在23.0℃～25.2℃条件下,条石鲷的适宜孵化盐度范围为21～42(PHL70%),最适为30～33(PHL90%)。     

EFFECT OF ACTINOMYCIN D ON THE DIFFERENTIATION OF HATCHING GLAND CELL AND CILIA CELL IN THE FROG EMBRYO

The forehead epidermis of the stage 18–20 R. japonica embryo includes the hatching gland cell (HGC) which contains cell-specific secretory granules. The cilia cell (CC) and common epidermal cell (CEC) constitute the epidermis of the entire body surface, in addition to the forehead region.
Culture of superficial epidermal explants from various embryonic portions at various developmental stages revealed that HGCs are derived from cells localized on the neural crest in the stage 13a (early neural plate) embryo. When explants from the presumptive HGC area were treated with 1 ug/ml actinomycin D (AMD), the formation of secretory granules in HGCs was inhibited either by continuous treatment from stage 13 or by an 8-hr treatment at stage 13b. Similarly, the ciliogenesis in CCs was inhibited. The differentiation of CECs was entirely unaffected by any of the AMD treatment. After release from AMD, mucous vesicles, characteristic of the CEC, were formed in cells whose differentiation into HGC and CC had been suppressed by the antibiotic. Thread complexes and clumps of coiled strings were found in the nuclei of AMD-affected cells.
It is concluded that the DNA-dependent RNA syntheses which direct secretory granule formation in the HGC and ciliogenesis in the CC occur during a limited period at stage 13b, viz. , 20 hr before their cytodifferentiation becomes appreciable.     

INDUCTION OF THE FROG HATCHING GLAND CELL FROM EXPLANTED PRESUMPTIVE ECTODERMAL TISSUE BY LICL

When cells of the superficial layer explanted from the presumptive ectoderm of a Rana japonica early gastrula embryo at stage 10 were cultured in standard salt solution for 4–7 days, they differentiated into cement gland cells (CGCs), cilia cells (CCs) and common epidermal cells (CECs). When, however, these explants were treated with LiCl and transferred to Barth's solution, hatching gland cells (HGCs) and pigment cells were induced.
The optimum condition for inducing differentiation of HGC was treatment with 70 mM LiCl for 6–8 hr at 18°C. The best ability to react to the HGC-inducing stimuli resided in the superficial layer of the dorsal presumptive epidermis of the embryo at stage 10. Upon repeated stimulation, explants from stage 8 embryos underwent differentiation into nerve and pigment cells, whereas those from stage 11 embryos differentiated into CCs and CECs. Under optimum conditions, the total volume of HGCs induced amounted to about 70% of the explanted tissue. The culture media from LiCl-induced HGCs showed an apparent jelly-digesting activity, strongly indicating that the cells were functionally identical with those differentiated in situ .

Amphibian hatching gland cells: pattern and distribution in anurans

The hatching gland (HG) is a transient organ, found in most anuran embryos and early larvae, and located on the dorsal side of the head. The enzymes secreted by hatching gland cells (HGCs) aid the embryos to escape from their enveloping coats. Analysis of HG morphology and distribution in 20 anuran species from six families using scanning electron microscopy revealed small differences in the shape and pattern of the gland particularly in the length and width of the posterior mid-dorsal extension of the gland. The four species of foam-nest making leptodactylids examined had HGs of a somewhat different shape to the others, but otherwise, there was little sign of a relationship between HG shape and taxonomic position. In the single Eleutherodactylus species examined, cells with the appearance and location of HGCs were transiently present long before the active stage of hatching. No sign of HGCs was seen on the head surface of one species, Phyllomedusa trinitatis. It seems possible that in this species, hatching is achieved by a mechanical rather than an enzymatic mechanism. The microvilli characteristic of the surfaces of HGCs were quite variable in density and length from species to species, and at different stages. HGCs remained at the surface of the embryo for some time after hatching and the possibility of a post-hatching function is briefly discussed.     

HATCHING GLANDS IN THE TELEOSTS, BRACHYDANIO RERIO. DANIO MALABARICUS, MOENKHAUSIA OLIGOLEPIS AND BARBUS SCHUBERTI

Many teleost embryos produce an enzyme within specialized glands, which facilitate hatching. The enzyme attacks the chorion which becomes so weak that it may be ruptured easily by a blow of the tail.
The embryos of Brachydanio rerio, Danio malabaricus, Moenkhausia oligolepis and Barbus schuberti show some morphological differences in the distribution of the hatching gland cells. More specificity can be found in the ultrastructure of hatching gland cells, which are loaded with enzyme granules prior to hatching. In all four species the nucleus is located near the basis of the cell. The hatching enzyme is contained within granules, which arise from the Golgi body.     

THE ORIGIN OF ECHINOID HATCHING ENZYME MESSENGER RNA*

To determine if echinoid hatching enzyme messenger RNA is newly synthesized from embryonic chromatin or is a maternal mRNA stored in the unfertilized egg, hybrid andromerogones have been constructed containing a sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) genome in sand dollar (Dendraster excentricus) cytoplasm. Such hybrid andromerogones developed at a normal rate to the blastula stage but failed to hatch. Diploid hybrids or merogones containing at least one complement of sand dollar genome hatched on the normal maternal schedule. Since the sea urchin hatching enzyme is not able to digest the sand dollar fertilization membrane, this failure to hatch is evidence that new mRNA synthesis from embryonic chromatin is required before hatching enzyme can be synthesized.     

AN ACCOUNT OF THE HATCHING STRATEGIES OF BIRDS

1. Three basic hatching methods are described together with one subsidiary method. The symmetrical method is characterized by rotation of the chick in the egg during hatching climax; a line of damage around the circumference of the egg is evident at the beginning of a pushing phase which causes a fairly symmetrical cap to be broken from the shell. The asymmetrical method is used by a few long-billed species; it involves little or no rotation of the chick in the egg, and produces asymmetrical shell remains. The megapodes have developed a unique hatching method in response to their unusual incubation conditions. Parental assistance has been observed in some species, but only as an auxiliary to either the symmetrical or asymmetrical method. Approximately 150 species have been categorized according to the hatching method(s) they use. 2. Among those species adopting the symmetrical method, there is considerable variability as to how far the chick turns in the egg during hatching climax. On this basis, a spectrum of behaviour, expressed in terms of angle of rotation (θ), has been proposed. At one end lie species such as the bobwhite quail and little owl (θ≥ 360°), and at the other, the ostrich and rhea (θ≤ 90°). 3. The theory that, with the exception of the megapodes, there is only one basic hatching method is examined. The tenets of this theory are found to be inconsistent with recent observations of species differences in hatching behaviour. It is concluded that hatching behaviour is governed by an intrinsic species-specific programme, in turn influenced by mechanical or other external factors. 4. The literature contains several suggestions as to the external factors that might influence hatching technique, but only one detailed investigation. It is proposed that interspecific differences in the mechanical properties of the egg integument (the shell and its underlying membranes) can be regarded as forming a spectrum from very brittle to comparatively tough. The amount of climax rotation by the chick is seen as an adaptive response to brittleness or toughness of the egg integument. The hatching technique of the chick is further modified as a response to the effect of moisture content on the integument. 5. The selective pressures leading to the evolution of the symmetrical and asymmetrical hatching methods are discussed. The previous model for the development of the asymmetrical method is amended to account for those species of gull which may adopt either method.
