省沽油科叶解剖结构的分类学意义   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
丁士友  于兆英 《植物研究》1992,12(2):177-184
本文对国产省沽油科 Staphyleaceae 4属植物叶的解剖结构进行了详细的比较研究。结果表明, 叶解剖结构特征在属间的区别较明显, 特别是瘿椒树属 Tapiscia 有着几乎与其他三属截然不同的独特性状。根据已有的孢粉学, 花、节及木材的解剖等方面的资料, 我们支持Тахтаджян(1987)将瘿椒树亚科分出而建立瘿椒树科 Tapisciaceae 的观点。瘿椒树属为我国特有属, 根据我们对采自不同产地的材料观察, 居群间的差异很小, 其可能仍为一单种属。  相似文献

纤维结缔组织在身体中的作用是支撑、连接和分隔不同的组织和器官。最近,人体断肢解剖研究证实,一种定向纤维结缔组织组成了一种长程液体传输通路。其解剖位置有两种:皮肤传输通路(包括真皮、皮下组织和脂肪小叶间隔)和血管周围传输通路(静脉和动脉周围纤维结缔组织)。这种纤维通路的三维空间内部结构是一种纵向分布、相互连接的纤维丝,在每一根纤维丝及其周围水凝胶之间形成了一种固液界面区;纤维结缔组织中的液体能够通过这种界面区传输,命名为"生物界面流体传输通路";存在于各种组织和器官纤维基质中的液体,很可能并没有被束缚在"组织凝胶"中,而是在尚未明确的某种物理机制的作用下,朝向一定的方向传输。这些研究结果为理解纤维结缔组织的功能提供了一个新的视角。  相似文献

Mechanical regulation of the Cyr61/CCN1 and CTGF/CCN2 proteins   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Cells in various anatomical locations are constantly exposed to mechanical forces from shear, tensile and compressional forces. These forces are significantly exaggerated in a number of pathological conditions arising from various etiologies e.g., hypertension, obstruction and hemodynamic overload. Increasingly persuasive evidence suggests that altered mechanical signals induce local production of soluble factors that interfere with the physiologic properties of tissues and compromise normal functioning of organ systems. Two immediate early gene-encoded members of the family of the Cyr61/CTGF/Nov proteins referred to as cysteine-rich protein 61 (Cyr61/CCN1) and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2), are highly expressed in several mechanical stress-related pathologies, which result from either increased externally applied or internally generated forces by the actin cytoskeleton. Both Cyr61 and CTGF are structurally related but functionally distinct multimodular proteins that are expressed in many organs and tissues only during specific developmental or pathological events. In vitro assessment of their biological activities revealed that Cyr61 expression induces a genetic reprogramming of angiogenic, adhesive and structural proteins while CTGF promotes distinctively extracellular matrix accumulation (i.e., type I collagen) which is the principal hallmark of fibrotic diseases. At the molecular level, expression of the Cyr61 and CTGF genes is regulated by alteration of cytoskeletal actin dynamics orchestrated by various components of the signaling machinery, i.e., small Rho GTPases, mitogen-activated protein kinases, and actin binding proteins. This review discusses the mechanical regulation of the Cyr61 and CTGF in various tissues and cell culture models with a special attention to the cytoskeletally based mechanisms involved in such regulation.  相似文献

In electromagnetic dosimetry, anatomical human models are commonly obtained by segmentation of magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography scans. In this paper, a human head model extracted from thermal infrared images is examined in terms of its applicability to specific absorption rate (SAR) calculations. Since thermal scans are two-dimensional (2D) representation of surface temperature, this allows researchers to overcome the extensive computational demand associated with 3D simulation. The numerical calculations are performed using the finite-difference time-domain method with mesh sizes of 2 mm at 900 MHz plane wave irradiation. The power density of the incident plane wave is assumed to be 10 W/m(2). Computations were compared with a realistic anatomical head model. The results show that although there were marked differences in the local SAR distribution in the various tissues in the two models, the 1 g peak SAR values are approximately similar in the two models.  相似文献

Wilcox , Hugh . (State U. Coll. of Forestry, Syracuse, New York.) Growth studies of the root of incense cedar, Libocedrus decurrens. I. The origin and development of primary tissues. Amer. Jour. Bot. 49(3): 221–236. Illus. 1962.—The anatomical features of active and dormant roots of incense-cedar seedlings are described and discussed in relation to various problems of differentiation and morphogenesis. Autoradiographs confirm the presence of a group of relatively inactive cells at the site of the apical initials. During periods of maximum growth activity, the presence of a quiescent center is accentuated by a peak in number of divisions in adjacent tissues. With diminution in growth activity, the peak occurs closer to the quiescent center and the size of the meristem appears to diminish. During dormancy, the configuration of the initial region seems to indicate the existence of apical initial cells which coincide with a minimal constructional center, as determined by studies of cell lineage. Roots whose apical cells retain their meristematic appearance are able to resume growth after a period of dormancy, whereas roots whose apical cells undergo vacuolation are likely to perish. Graphs are presented to show the functional relationships between growth rate and the varying distances from the apical meristem at which the tissues of the root differentiate and mature. Although early differentiation of precursory phloem could be discerned almost as soon as early vacuolation of metaxylem, its recognition was more dependent upon subjective judgment. The functional relationship between differentiation and growth rate was most pronounced in the maturation of protoxylem elements, the development of Casparian strips in the endodermis, the development of suberin lamellae in the endodermis, and by the development of phi layers in the inner cortex.  相似文献

The anatomy of the young stem and node was investigated in 12 species representing all 6 genera of the Canellaceae. The salient anatomical features of this family are as follows: (1) the primary vascular system is pseudo-siphonostelic; (2) druse-type calcium oxalate crystals and ethereal oil cells are characteristic of the parenchymatous tissues; (3) all members of the family exhibit trilacunar nodes; (4) the periderm is superficial in origin with characteristic U-shaped thickened cells; and (5) the sieve-tube members are of a primitive type with obliquely oriented end walls and many unspecialized sieve areas. On the basis of this anatomical investigation, the conclusion that the Canellaceae has a general ranalean affinity is strengthened.  相似文献

There is now abundant functional and anatomical evidence that autonomic motor pathways represent a highly organized output of the central nervous system. Simplistic notions of antagonistic all-or-none activation of sympathetic or parasympathetic pathways are clearly wrong. Sympathetic or parasympathetic pathways to specific target tissues generally can be activated tonically or phasically, depending on current physiological requirements. For example, at rest, many sympathetic pathways are tonically active, such as those limiting blood flow to the skin, inhibiting gastrointestinal tract motility and secretion, or allowing continence in the urinary bladder. Phasic parasympathetic activity can be seen in lacrimation, salivation or urination. Activity in autonomic motor pathways can be modulated by diverse sensory inputs, including the visual, auditory and vestibular systems, in addition to various functional populations of visceral afferents. Identifying the central pathways responsible for coordinated autonomic activity has made considerable progress, but much more needs to be done.  相似文献

Coronary (CAD) and peripheral (PAD) artery diseases are major causes of morbidity and mortality, and millions of CAD and PAD patients are treated by various medications, bypass surgery or angioplasty around the world. Such patients might benefit from novel stem cells and tissue engineering strategies aimed at accelerating natural processes of postnatal collateral vessel formation and repairing damaged tissues. By combining three fundamental “tools”, namely stem cells, biomaterials and growth factors (GFs), such strategies may enhance the efficacy of cell therapy in several ways: (a) by supplying exogenous stem cells or GFs that stimulate resident cardiac stem cell (CSC) migration, engraftment and commitment to cardiomyocytes, and that induce and modulate arterial response to ischemia; (b) by supporting the maintenance of GFs and transplanted stem cells in the damaged tissues through the use of biocompatible and biodegradable polymers for a period of time sufficient to allow histological and anatomical restoration of the damaged tissue. This review will discuss the potential of combining stem cells and new delivery systems for growth factors, such as vehicle-based delivery strategies or cell-based gene therapy, to facilitate regeneration of ischemic tissues. These approaches would promote the ability of resident CSCs or of exogenous multipotent stem cells such as adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) to induce the healing of damaged tissue, by recruiting and directing these cells into the damage area and by improving angiogenesis and reperfusion of ischemic tissues.  相似文献

Studies were conducted to separate the salivary and mechanical aspects of probing damage by the potato leafhopper,Empoasca fabae (Harris) (Homoptera: Cicadellidae), to stem vascular tissue of alfalfa,Medicago sativa L. Implantation of salivary gland tissue or fed-upon artificial diet under the stem epidermis yielded no evidence, three days later, of hopperburn-associated, anatomical changes. Mechanical puncturing of stems with implements approximating the size and shape of leafhopper stylets caused some anatomical changes, three days later, similar to those underlying hopperburn, i.e. tracks of necrosis, chlorosis, cell enlargement, and cell division. These changes, however, were much less severe than those observed in tissues three days after potato leafhopper probing. In contrast, puncturing through salivary gland or Malpighian tubule tissues produced extreme hyperplasia and other symptoms of wounding in cells near the puncture. This was similar to but more severe than effects from leafhopper probing, and was probably caused by leafhopper structural tissues or larger amounts of saliva being conveyed into the plant than normally occurs during leafhopper probing. We conclude that both salivation and mechanical wounding by leafhopper stylets are probably necessary to cause hopperburn-associated anatomical changes to vascular tissue in stems of alfalfa. This conclusion supports our hypothesis that hopperburn is a saliva-enhanced wound response.  相似文献

Leaf mass per area (LMA) is a morphological trait widely used as a good indicator of plant functioning (i.e. photosynthetic and respiratory rates, chemical composition, resistance to herbivory, etc.). The LMA can be broken down into the leaf density (LD) and leaf volume to area ratio (LVA or thickness), which in turn are determined by anatomical tissues and chemical composition. The aim of this study is to understand the anatomical and chemical characteristics related to LMA variation in species growing in the field along a water availability gradient. We determined LMA and its components (LD, LVA and anatomical tissues) for 34 Mediterranean (20 evergreen and 14 deciduous) woody species. Variation in LMA was due to variation in both LD and LVA. For both deciduous and evergreen species LVA variation was strongly and positively related with mesophyll volume per area (VA or thickness), but for evergreen species positive relationships of LVA with the VA of epidermis, vascular plus sclerenchyma tissues and air spaces were found as well. The leaf carbon concentration was positively related with mesophyll VA in deciduous species, and with VA of vascular plus sclerenchymatic tissues in evergreens. Species occurring at the sites with lower water availability were generally characterised by a high LMA and LD.  相似文献

Secretory organs are a specialised anatomical feature of plants, these tissues function in the production and/or storage of specific chemical substances, which often have pharmacological properties. The genus Hypericum is characterised by the presence of specialised secretory structures such as black nodules, translucent glands and secretory canals. The presence of these structures is not homogeneous for all the species or between the various floral and vegetative parts of the plants. In this study, we have compared the distributions, morphology and development of secretory structures in the leaves of H. perforatum and H. richeri. Whilst, black nodules occurred in both species, translucent glands followed different development stages depending on the leaf age.  相似文献

Summary Filamentous structures were observed when cytoplasmic extracts of various tissues of soybean plants and seedlings were examined by electron microscopy. Three main lines of evidence indicate that these structures represented microfilaments derived from the soybean tissues: a) the diameter of the filaments was estimated to be 6–7 nm; b) the addition of rabbit heavy meromyosin resulted in the decoration of the filaments, yielding characteristic arrow-head patterns; and c) ATP reversed the decoration of the filaments by heavy meromyosin. When the various anatomical parts of soybean plants and seedlings were compared for the presence of microfilaments, the root tips and radicles showed the highest frequency while the petioles and cotyledons yielded no observable filaments. In order to substantiate these findings, a quantitative radioimmunoassay was developed using rabbit antibodies directed against calf thymus actin. These studies demonstrated that the concentration of actin in extracts of the root tip was 15-fold higher than in those of the petiole and leaf. Similar comparisons of various parts of soybean seedlings showed that the radicle was rich in actin. These results suggest that actin filaments are found predominantly in the subterranean parts of plants.  相似文献

A quantitative anatomical study of the stem structure of grasses of various ecological groups: xerophytes, mespohytes, ephemers, hydrophytes and psammophytes (a total of 30 species) was carried out. The proportions of the various tissues in the stem were expressed as a percentage of the cross-sectional area of the stem. Stems of hydrophytes were found to have only small proportion of mechanical (4-8%) and conducting (2-5%) tissues but a large pro. portion of parenchyma (85-93% - primary cortex and basic parenchyma) and air system (38-40% - parenchyma channels or specialized aerenchyma). The stems of xerophytes possess a highly developed sclerenchyma (30-50%) and vessel bundles (6-13%) while the parenchyma is less developed (36-60%). The cells of the stems of hydrophytes are larger than those of xerophytes, but the cell membranes are thinner. The structure of mesophytes is intermediate between that of hydrophytes and xerophytes and the structure of ephemers is very similar to that of mesophytes. Psammophytes differ from xerophytes in having more mesomorphous features.  相似文献

Summary The lipip content and composition of various tissues from three species of nototheniid fish from McMurdo Sound, Antarctic have been examined in relation to their habitat and buoyancy. The pelagic midwater Dissostichus mawsoni is neutrally buoyant. It is rich in lipid which is located subcutaneously, as adipose tissue associated intimately with white muscle, and as lipid droplets within the cells of various tissues. White muscle, red muscle and liver are particularly lipid-rich, although the liver is not positively buoyant. The amount of lipid stored in the white muscle increases towards the centre of buoyancy of the fish. These deposits are documented at the anatomical, histological and ultrastructural levels. Tissues of Pagothenia borchgrevinki contain less lipid than D. mawsoni, but liver, red muscle and white muscle are still very rich in lipid. This species is cryopelagic, that is it spends most of the time in the water column just beneath the surface ice layer. It is not neutrally buoyant, but has a low weight in seawater. The tissues of the benthic Trematomus bernacchii contain only normal levels of lipid. The lipid class compositions of all three species are dominated by triacylglycerol, particularly when lipid contents are high. Serum lipids are an exception in containing high levels of the transport lipid sterol ester. The reason why Antarctic fish use triacylglycerols for buoyancy rather than was esters (as used by many myctophids) or squalene (as used by some sharks) is unclear.  相似文献

Certain anatomical characters of Jaumea carnosa, a salt marsh plant, which are diagnostic, adaptive, or otherwise important for an ecological anatomy study are described. The characters which follow are noteworthy. The plant has a sympodial construction forming an extensively branched rhizome system, and erect lateral shoots which eventually become prostrate. The leaves have very few, and only moderately developed succulent characters, such as: poorly defined palisade tissue, central mesophyll cells which are slightly enlarged anticlinally, and a complete lack of sclerification in the mesophyll. A continuous schizogenous canal system lined with epithelial cells lies in the ground tissues of all stem forms and leaves. The phellem is composed of thin-walled, only lightly suberized cells. Very broad parenchymatous areas develop in the secondary tissues of the rhizome, associated with a slowing of vascular cambial activity which creates depressions in the axis. Adventitious roots arise from ground tissues close to the primary xylem and from interfasicular regions close to the primary phloem in the rhizomes.  相似文献
