黄鳝生殖干细胞在性逆转生殖发育过程中的变化

应用组织学方法及免疫组织化学技术显示,黄鳝性逆转生殖发育过程中,生殖干细胞(GSCs)定位分布于生殖褶中,黄鳝雌性发育阶段的GSCs分散或成团存在,间性及雄性发育阶段GSCs均区分为A、B两种不同类型,雌性发育阶段GSCs与A、B两类GSCs在超微结构上存在差异。结果表明,生殖褶中GSCs是黄鳝分化生殖腺中唯一具有有丝分裂能力的生殖细胞群,雌性发育阶段GSCs表现出卵原干细胞特征,间性及雄性发育阶段GSCs为精原干细胞。CD49整合素是黄鳝雌性发育阶段GSCs和A类GSCs的表征分子。

TRANSFORMATION OF THE GERM STEM CELLS IN THE GONAD DEVELOPMENT OF SEX REVERSAL IN MONOPTERUS ALBUS

This paper investigates the features of GSCs in the process of the gonad development of sex reversal in Monopterus albus by the histological methods and the histological immunochemical techniques. In Monopterus albus,the GSCs are located in the gonadal lamellae,which are scattered or accumulated during the female phase. In the intersex and the male,the GSCs are distinguished by two types A and B, both of them differ from the GSCs at the female stage in ultrastructure. It shows that the GSCs existing in the gonadal lamellae are the unique germ family,which owns the capability of mitosis in the differential gonads. The GSCs represent the ovogonia in the female phase,while the spermagonia in the intersex and the male phases. CD49 is the molecular marker for the GSCs at the female stage and the GSCs of type A.
