不同NaHCO3碱度对瓦氏雅罗鱼鳃组织结构的影响

研究采用组织学方法观察和比较了达里诺尔湖瓦氏雅罗鱼(Leuciscus waleckii, 碱水种)和松花江瓦氏雅罗鱼(淡水种)在相同碳酸盐碱度胁迫下(C_A0、C_A30和C_A50)鳃组织结构的差异, 探究瓦氏雅罗鱼碱水种耐高碱特性与鳃组织结构微观调整的适应性关系。结果显示, 随着碱度增加, 碱水种鳃丝变宽、鳃小片变长、鳃小片间距变大(P<0.05); 淡水种鳃丝变宽、鳃小片间距变大(P<0.05), 鳃小片长度在C_A30时显著变长(P<0.05), 而在C_A50时与对照组无明显差异(P>0.05)。碱水种在C_A30和C_A50的氯细胞数量与对照组相比明显增加, C_A50的氯细胞排列更加紧密并且有叠加现象, 扁平上皮细胞变大, 细胞表面增厚; 淡水种在C_A30时的氯细胞数量明显多于C_A50, 但在碱度胁迫下, 鳃小片出现破损, 扁平上皮细胞、柱细胞和血细胞融合、脱落现象严重。另外, 在碱水种和淡水种鳃耙上皮细胞中发现了大量黏液细胞分泌, 随着碱度增加, 黏液细胞由大而稀疏变为小而密集, 其中碱水种的黏液细胞数量较淡水种多, 而且排列更为整齐、密集。鳃组织学研究结果表明, 瓦氏雅罗鱼碱水种通过保持鳃组织结构和生理功能的完整性达到对高碱环境的长期适应, 而淡水种则因鳃细胞融合、脱落造成生理功能丧失, 不能长期适应高碱环境。研究结果可为淡水鱼类在盐碱水的移植驯化提供依据和指导。

小瓜虫在澳洲龙纹斑鳃器官上的分布及其影响

【目的】小瓜虫病是澳洲龙纹斑苗种阶段危害巨大的寄生虫病。探究小瓜虫在澳洲龙纹斑鳃器官上的分布及其影响可以丰富小瓜虫的致病性及病理学方面的研究内容,也可以为渔业生产中小瓜虫病的防治提供参考。【方法】采用光镜及扫描电镜技术确定病原,并观察小瓜虫在澳洲龙纹斑鳃丝、鳃小片及鳃盖上的分布情况及这些器官的变化情况。【结果】小瓜虫侵染澳洲龙纹斑的鳃器官后,分布在鳃丝、鳃小片及鳃盖的表面,上皮细胞之下及鳃小片之间,或是包裹在黏液细胞里,但侵染后期在鳃丝及鳃小片上的数量明显少于鳃盖。侵染后期,鳃丝、鳃小片及鳃盖出现一定程度的膨胀变形,黏液细胞分泌增多,鳃小片末端膨大变形甚至黏连融合,顶端充血呈球状或棒状。【结论】对于鳃部而言,侵染后期小瓜虫主要分布在澳洲龙纹斑的鳃盖上。小瓜虫主要通过侵染引发澳洲龙纹斑鳃部器官的变形膨大,使其丧失正常的功能,造成血液循环受阻、渗透压调节失衡,最终导致鱼体缺氧死亡。     

The gill of fish larvae. Is it primarily a respiratory or an ionoregulatory structure?

Based on surface area and chloride cell number, rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss gills appear initially to be more important in terms of ion balance than gas exchange. Chloride cells appear on the gill 3–6 days before hatch at 10°C. This is about 9 days before secondary lamellae, the definitive adult gas exchange structure, begin to form. At hatch, 22% of all chloride cells but only 7% of total surface area are located on the gill. This discrepancy gradually diminishes but even at complete yolk absorption the gill still seems to be about twice as important in terms of ion balance (75% of chloride cells) as gas exchange (37% of total surface area represented by gill filaments and lamellae combined). Surface area measurements and chloride cell counts reported in the literature for larvae of other species show a similar pattern suggesting that this may be a general phenomenon. If true, the implications are profound not only for developmental physiologists but also for those interested in the evolutionary history of gills and their function in adult fish.     

Gross morphology and surface ultrastructure of the gills of Odontesthes argentinensis (Actinopterygii, Atherinopsidae) from a Southwestern Atlantic coastal lagoon

Odontesthes argentinensis was collected from Mar Chiquita Coastal Lagoon, the Southernmost coastal Atlantic Lagoon of Argentina. The morphology of the gills was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. The morphology of the superficial structures of the gill filaments and pharyngeal region of the gill arch was discussed and related to their functional aspects. The gills arches are structurally similar to those of other teleosts and bring out the osmoregulatory capacity of this species. The epithelium that covers the surface of the filaments and the pharyngeal region of the gill arch is formed by polygonal pavement cells with conspicuous microridges. These folds in the membrane are not denoted in the epithelium of the respiratory lamellae. Apical crypts of chloride cells are present on the afferent and interlamellar filament surfaces, but are absent elsewhere on the gill arch. The highest density of mucous cells is observed into the gill filament and the pharyngeal region which indicates the existence of a protective strategy of the respiratory lamellae and the pharynx. The epithelium of the gill arches and the rakers is studded with spines. There are taste buds along the whole pharyngeal region that may be associated with their participation in tasting at this zone.     

Scanning electron microscopy of the gills of a freshwater catfish,Rita Rita

Variations in the gross morphology and surface architecture of the gill filaments and secondary lamellae of a freshwater catfish (Rita rita) have been investigated using scanning electron microscopy. Heterogeneity of the gill has been correlated with the distribution of lamellar water-flow at different regions of a gill filament. Higher lamellar water flow (cc/pore/cmH₂O/sec) was estimated for the middle region of the filaments. The filaments are covered with epithelial cells whose surface is provided with well-developed microridges. The lamellae are generally covered with microvillous epithelial cells. The variations in surface architecture of the gill filaments and secondary lamellae have been correlated with their probable functions.     

The architecture of the gill surface of the catfish, Heteropneutes fossilis (Bloch): SEM study.

A scanning electron microscopical examination of the gills of H. fossilis is described. The surface architecture of gill filaments and secondary gill lamellae showed the presence of various features such as indentations, micropits and crevices. The possible functions of these morphological adaptations are discussed in relation to physiology of the gill.     

Gill morphology in the zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio (Hamilton- Buchanan)

A light and electron microscopic study of the gills of the zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio , were made to serve as a morphological basis for future investigations. It was found that for fixation of B. rerio gills, a mixture of 1·5% gluturaldehyde and 1·5% paraformaldehyde gives a mucus-free surface. Morphometric measurements of structural components of the gill secondary lamellae were made. Observations at SEM were correlated with those made at TEM. The different cell types in the branchial epithelium were characterized. Chloride cells were mainly located in the interlamellar regions and on the afferent side of the primary lamellae. Two morphologically different chloride cells were seen. The first type communicates with the external environment through a reservoir-like lumen, which is normally absent in freshwater fishes. The second type of chloride cell has more direct contact with the ambient water, resembling chloride cells from other freshwater fishes. Another cell type with features similar to those of the rodlet cell was frequently observed. This cell is interposed between other types of cells in the epithelium, and sometimes junctional complexes were present between the rodlet cell and surrounding cells.

Ultrastructural and histochemical study on gills and skin of the Senegal sole, Solea senegalensis

This study was undertaken to identify the normal ultrastructural features of gills and skin of the Senegal sole, Solea senegalensis, for a comparative measure to morphological alterations caused by environmental stressors such as reduced water quality and diseases. In the Senegal sole skin, four morphologically distinct layers were identified: cuticle, epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. The epidermis was composed of stratified epithelium containing three cellular layers: the outermost or mucosa layer, the middle or fusiform layer and the stratum germinativum or the basal layer. In the mucosa, two mucous cell types were differentiated: type A cells containing several round vesicles of different electron density and type B cells containing mucosomes of uniform electron density. Senegal sole have five pairs of gill arches, each containing two rows of well‐developed and compactly organized primary filaments and secondary lamellae. Fingerprint‐like microridges were observed on the surface of epithelial cells. The branchial lamellae epithelium consisted of different cell types: pavement, mucous and chloride. Between the chloride cells and the larger pavement cells, accessory cells were observed. Complexes of tight junctions and desmosomes were frequently observed between adjacent chloride and epithelial cells. Neutral mucosubstances and/or glycoconjugates were observed in the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis of S. senegalensis skin. Proteins rich in different amino acids, such as arginine and cysteine, reacted negatively or weakly positive in the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. In gills, some mucous cells responded weakly positive to periodic acid‐Schiff (PAS) reaction but were strongly stained with Alcian Blue at pH 0.5, 1 and 2.5. When Alcian Blue pH 2.5–PAS reaction was performed, most mucous cells were stained blue (carboxylated mucins) and some mucocytes stained purple, indicating a combination of neutral and acid mucins. Proteins rich in cysteine‐bound sulphydryl (‐SH‐) and cystine disulphide (‐S‐S‐) groups were strongly detected in branchial and epidermal mucous cells, whereas lysine, tyrosine and arginine containing proteins showed very weak staining in both epidermal and branchial mucous cells. Protein reactions were strongly positive in the pillar cells, except for those rich in tryptophan, whereas the branchial cartilaginous tissue did not show an important reaction. The performed lipid reactions were negative in goblet and chloride cells. It is concluded from this study that ultrastructural and cytohistochemical features of the Senegal sole skin and gills may serve as control structures in both natural and aquaculture systems to monitor or detect environmental stress responses at the histological level.     

Structures and immunolocalization of Na+, K+ -ATPase, Na+ /H+ exchanger 3 and vacuolar-type H+ -ATPase in the gills of blennies (Teleostei: Blenniidae) inhabiting rocky intertidal areas

The structure and immunolocalization of the ion transporters Na(+) ,K(+) -ATPase (NKA), Na(+) /H(+) exchanger (NHE3) and vacuolar-type H(+) -ATPase (VHA) were examined in the gills of teleosts of the family Blenniidae, which inhabit rocky shores with vertical zonation in subtropical seas. These features were compared among the following species with different ecologies: the amphibious rockskipper blenny Andamia tetradactylus, the intertidal white-finned blenny Praealticus tanegasimae and the purely marine yaeyama blenny Ecsenius yaeyamaensis. Light and electron microscopic observations indicated that thick gill filaments were arranged close to each other and alternately on two hemibranches of a gill arch in the opercular space of A. tetradactylus. Many mucous cells (MC) and mitochondrion-rich cells (MRC) were present in the interlamellar regions of the gill filament. An immunohistochemical study demonstrated that numerous NKA, NHE3 and some VHA were located predominantly on presumed MRCs of gill filaments and at the base of the lamellae. Analyses using serial (mirror image) sections of the gills indicated that only a few NKA immunoreactive cells (IRC) were colocalized with VHA on some MRCs in the filaments. In the gills of P. tanegasimae, NKA- and NHE3-IRCs were observed in the interlamellar region of the filaments and at the base of the lamellae. VHA-IRCs were located sparsely on the lamellae and filaments. In the gills of E. yaeyamaensis, the lamellae and filaments were thin and straight, respectively. MCs were located at the tip as well as found scattered in the interlamellar region of gill filaments. NKA-, NHE3- and VHA-IRCs were moderately frequently observed in the filaments and rarely on the lamellae. This study shows that the structure and distribution of ion transporters in the gills differ among the three blennid species, presumably reflecting their different ecologies.     

A scanning electron microscope study of the gills of the air-breathing catfish, Clarias batrachus L.

Using the scanning electron microscope, the gills of the air-breathing catfish, Clarias batrachus , have been studied. The overall morphology of the gills are similar to other teleosts. In contrast to water-breathing species, however, microridges are absent from the surfaces of the secondary lamellae and only short microvilli are present. Long, convoluted microridges are present on the epithelial cells of the gill filaments. The possible roles of these structures in relation to water flow are discussed.     

Histopathological alterations and induction of cytochrome P-450 1A in the liver and gills of the gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) exposed to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin

The toxicity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) has been demonstrated in the seabream Sparus aurata specimens. Liver presented hepatocytic alterations, with an increase of lipid droplets and glycogen granules. Ultrastructural modifications of hepatocytes included RER fractionation, glycogen augmentation, as well as a rise in the number of lipid droplets, vacuoles and secondary lysosomes. In the gills, secondary lamellar epithelium showed hyperplasia, hypertrophy and lamellar fusion on the edge of the filaments. At the end of the exposure period (1 pg1(-1) TCDD for 20 days), some organelles in epithelial cells of the secondary lamellae and the tubular system of the chloride cells appeared altered. In the liver of TCDD-exposed specimens, immunoreactive cytochrome P-450 1A was concentrated close to the cytoplasmic and nuclear membranes, and positive granules were also evident throughout cytoplasm of the hepatocytes. Significant cytochrome P-450 staining was especially evident in endothelium of the hepatic vascular system. At the beginning of the exposure (1 pg 1(-1) TCDD, for 5 and 10 days), cytochrome P-450 immunostaining was observed in the cytoplasm of scarce hepatic cells and after 20 days of treatment, specific immunostained cytoplasmic granules were detected in most hepatocytes. In gills of TCDD-treated specimens, pillar-endothelial cells showed a cytochrome P-450 1A immunostaining concentrated close to the base of gill filaments and dispersed through the gill lamellae. There was also significant cytochrome staining of the endothelium of the branchial vascular system. However, no cytochrome immunoreactivity was observed in epithelial-respiratory cells.
