Palatal taste buds of perihatching chicks were examined by electron microscopy. Four intragemmal cell types were characterized. 1) Light: with voluminous, electron-lucent cytoplasm containing scattered free ribosomes, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, plump mitochondria, sparse perinuclear filaments, occasional Golgi bodies, and numerous clear and dense-cored vesicles. Clear vesicles sometimes aggregate in a presynaptic-like configuration apposed to an axonal profile. These cells contained large, spherical, uniformly granular nuclei with one nucleolus. 2) Dark: with dense cytoplasm containing filamentous bundles surrounding the nucleus, occasional clear vesicles, centrioles, rough endoplasmic reticulum, and compact mitochrondria. The apical cytoplasm noticeably lacks dense secretory granules. Irregular to lobulated nuclei are densely granular, and contain scattered clumps of chromatin, adhering especially to the inner leaflet of the nuclear membrane, and at least one nucleolus. Cytoplasmic extensions of dark cells envelop other intragemmal cell types and nerve fibers. Light and dark cells project microvilli into the taste pore. 3) Intermediate: contain gradations of features of light and dark cells. 4) Basal: darker than the other intragemmal cell types and confined to the ventral bud region. Putative afferent synapses in relation to light cells, and axo-axonal contacts are described. While the appearance of axo-axonal contacts may be a transient developmental event, other bud features are consonant with observations in adult chickens and suggest that the peripheral gustatory apparatus is mature at hatching in this precocial avian species. 相似文献

Summary Taste buds of rabbit foliate papillae were observed in control, after denervation and during reinnervation by the glossopharyngeal nerve. In control, taste bud cells could be divided into three groups according to their shapes and staining characteristics. Most of the cells were identified as either dark (corresponding to gustatory) or light (corresponding to supporting) cells. However, some cells were encountered which could not readily be placed in either group; they have been termed intermediate cells. Nine to twelve hours after axotomy, wandering cells were observed in many of the taste buds. Thereafter taste buds gradually decreased in size and disappeared, for the most part, by the 14th postoperative day. It was found that dark cells disappeared first, then at a later stage the light cells also disappeared. During reinnervation, dark cells were first to appear about 40 days after the operation and light cells were not seen till about 9 days later.From the observations, it is concluded that the dark cells of the taste bud differentiate from epithelial cells under the influence of nerves and mature into light cells through intermediate cells. 相似文献

Intracellular transport of albumin through the secretory apparatus of rat liver parenchymal cells. An immunocytochemical study 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The fine structural localization of albumin in rat liver parenchymal cells was determined by an improved immunocytochemical method and serial sectioning. Albumin in the secretory apparatus of the parenchymal cells was present in segments of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, interrupted with negative segments, in transport vesicles, Golgi saccules, finely anastomosed tubules and vesicles on the trans side of the Golgi complex, and in secretion granules. Horizontally sectioned Golgi saccules contained lipoprotein particles on one side and albumin on the other side. After transport, the vesicles that contained albumin fused with the so-called rigid lamellae on the trans-side of the Golgi complex. Ultrathin serial sections revealed no true structural continuity between the endoplasmic reticulum and the cis-aspect of the Golgi complex. We concluded that secretory proteins are transported from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex by transport vesicles that bud from the endoplasmic reticulum and fuse with the Golgi saccules. These vesicles fuse regularly with the Golgi saccules on the cis-side and occasionally with tubular elements on the trans-aspect that may belong to the so-called GERL. 相似文献

RENEWAL OF TASTE BUD CELLS IN RAT CIRCUMVALLATE PAPILLAE 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

The life span of taste bud cells in rat circumvallate papillae was measured by autoradiography after labeling them with a pulse of [3H]thymidine. Specimens of circumvallate papillae were taken daily 1·5-18·5 days after the isotope was administered; thereafter, specimens were taken on alternate days until 25·5 days. For each time interval, the number of labeled cell nuclei was counted in 200-450 taste buds and plotted as the ratio of labeled cells/taste bud v. time after injection of [3H]TdR. In all, 6958 taste buds were counted. The total number of labeled cells (dark plus light) per taste bud reached peaks at 6·5, 13·5 and 20·5 days. The curve for the number of labeled dark cells/bud had essentially the same shape as that for total cells. The number of labeled light cells/bud reached a modest peak at 6·5 days and slowly declined to a plateau for the remainder of the experiment. The data show that an average of 2 days elapsed after injection before labeled dark cells entered the bud and they spent an average of 7 days in the non-proliferating taste bud compartment; thus, the life span of the dark cell was 9 days. The life span of the light cell was difficult to estimate quantitatively, but this cell type was labeled at a much slower rate than dark cells and is assumed to have a significantly longer tenure in the taste bud. 相似文献

Colchicine application on the glossopharyngeal nerve produces a decrease in number and size of the taste buds in the foliate papillae of the tongue, in amount of cells in the buds, as well as certain changes in the nuclear area of these cells on the ipsilateral side. Correlation of normal amount of dark, light and intermediate cells (62, 26, 12, correspondingly) changes: the amount of the dark cells decreases, while the relative amount of the intermediate cells increases. An analogous but less pronounced phenomenon is observed on the contralateral side. Similar changes are also observed after the nerve cutting at the same side where colchicine is applied. But these changes develop more quickly. The results obtained demonstrate that every cell type of the taste bud responds specifically to the trophic effect of the nerves, which is realized with the axonal transport participation. 相似文献

Espins are multifunctional actin-bundling proteins that are highly enriched in the microvilli of certain chemosensory and mechanosensory cells, where they are believed to regulate the integrity and/or dimensions of the parallel-actin-bundle cytoskeletal scaffold. We have determined that, in rats and mice, affinity purified espin antibody intensely labels the lingual and palatal taste buds of the oral cavity and taste buds in the pharyngo-laryngeal region. Intense immunolabeling was observed in the apical, microvillar region of taste buds, while the level of cytoplasmic labeling in taste bud cells was considerably lower. Taste buds contain tightly packed collections of sensory cells (light, or type II plus type III) and supporting cells (dark, or type I), which can be distinguished by microscopic features and cell type-specific markers. On the basis of results obtained using an antigen-retrieval method in conjunction with double immunofluorescence for espin and sensory taste cell-specific markers, we propose that espins are expressed predominantly in the sensory cells of taste buds. In confocal images of rat circumvallate taste buds, we counted 21.5 ± 0.3 espin-positive cells/taste bud, in agreement with a previous report showing 20.7 ± 1.3 light cells/taste bud when counted at the ultrastructural level. The espin antibody labeled spindle-shaped cells with round nuclei and showed 100% colocalization with cell-specific markers recognizing all type II [inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type III (IP3R3), α-gustducin, protein-specific gene product 9.5 (PGP9.5)] and a subpopulation of type III (IP3R3, PGP9.5) taste cells. On average, 72%, 50%, and 32% of the espin-positive taste cells were labeled with antibodies to IP3R3, α-gustducin, and PGP9.5, respectively. Upon sectional analysis, the taste buds of rat circumvallate papillae commonly revealed a multi-tiered, espin-positive apical cytoskeletal apparatus. One espin-positive zone, a collection of ~3 μm-long microvilli occupying the taste pore, was separated by an espin-depleted zone from a second espin-positive zone situated lower within the taste pit. This latter zone included espin-positive rod-like structures that occasionally extended basally to a depth of 10–12 μm into the cytoplasm of taste cells. We propose that the espin-positive zone in the taste pit coincides with actin bundles in association with the microvilli of type II taste cells, whereas the espin-positive microvilli in the taste pore are the single microvilli of type III taste cells. 相似文献

The distribution, external surface morphology and ultrastructure of taste buds in the oropharyngeal cavity of the rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, were studied using scanning and transmission electron microscopes (SEM and TEM). The SEM revealed three taste bud types, varying only in their degree of elevation from the general level of the epithelium. Types I and II were located on elevated papillae associated with teeth on the dentary, maxilla, palate, tongue and pharyngeal pads while the unelevated Type III were mainly found in the anterior (branchial) pharynx.
Each taste bud was composed of four cell types: basal, dark, intermediate and light cells, the apical processes of the last three filling the taste pores. The intermediate and light cells appeared similar in ultrastructure, varying only in the amount and organization of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) in their cytoplasm. In addition to its contacts with the processes of intragemmal nerves distally, the basal cells established independent contacts with processes of extragemmal nerves basally. It is suggested that the distribution of the taste buds and their close association with teeth are adaptations to the predatory feeding habit of the rainbow trout. Age differences may account for the existence of two types of gustatory cells and the manner of innervation of the taste bud suggests the existence of two pathways for the transmission of gustatory sensation to the central nervous system (CNS). 相似文献

Summary Taste buds occur in the epithelium of the catfish barbel along its entire length. Two major cell types, light and dark cells, occupy the upper two-thirds of the taste bud. A third cell type, the basal cell, lies on the basal lamina and is essentially separated from the light and dark cells by a plexus of unmyelinated nerve fibers. The dark cells have branching processes, both apically and basally whereas the light cells have a single apical process and many basal processes. The apical processes of dark cells contain secretory granules, while the apical processes of light cells contain an abundant agranular endoplasmic reticulum. Light cell nuclei contain bundles of 10 nm filaments, often arranged in the shape of a cup or ring, but nucleoli are rarely seen. It is suggested that this morphology indicates a low degree of RNA synthesis by light cells. The basal cells contain large numbers of vesicles, about 60 nm in diameter, which are sometimes seen in clumps in relation to an adjacent nerve fiber in a configuration resembling a synapse. Curiously, although basal cells present a large surface to the basal lamina, there are no hemidesmosomes. This suggests that the basal cell does not originate from the epidermis.Supported by grant#NS-06181 from the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke, U.S. Public Health Service 相似文献

In the terminal segment of the hamster epididymidis there was some evidence of micro-merocrine protein secretion a the level of the principal cells and clear evidence of granular secretion in the light cells, presumable of glycoproteins. The PAS and protein cytochemistry reactivities observed in both these cells, of the ductus epithelial lining, but especially in the light cells, are suggestive of mucopolysaccharides and protein complexes synthesis and secretion. This secretion is carried out to the epididymal epithelium from the lumen and luminal content. A complex of small vacuoles and vesicles appeared to form from the Golgi complex is showed in the principal cells. It was suggested that this complex may represented merocrine secretory vacuoles and vesicles in these cells. Dense granules, at the TEM level, are observed in all the cytoplasm of the light cells, with correspondence to similar PAS-positive granules observed in these cells, at the light microscope level. These granules, at the TEM level, are actually secreted to the epididymal duct lumen, by the apical cytoplasms of the light cells. Signs of absorption were suggested to the principal and light columnar cells through the ultrastructural observations of micropinocytosis, apical multivesicular bodies or great membrane-bounded vacuoles in the adluminal cytoplasms. 相似文献

In fish, nerve fibers of taste buds are organized within the bud's nerve fiber plexus. It is located between the sensory epithelium consisting of light and dark elongated cells and the basal cells. It comprises the basal parts and processes of light and dark cells that intermingle with nerve fibers, which are the dendritic endings of the taste sensory neurons belonging to the cranial nerves VII, IX or X. Most of the synapses at the plexus are afferent; they have synaptic vesicles on the light (or dark) cells side, which is presynaptic. In contrast, the presumed efferent synapses may be rich in synaptic vesicles on the nerve fibers (presynaptic) side, whereas the cells (postsynaptic) side may contain a subsynaptic cistern; a flat compartment of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. This structure is regarded as a prerequisite of a typical efferent synapse, as occurring in cochlear and vestibular hair cells. In fish taste buds, efferent synapses are rare and were found only in a few species that belong to different taxa. The significance of efferent synapses in fish taste buds is not well understood, because efferent connections between the gustatory nuclei of the medulla with taste buds are not yet proved. 相似文献

The timing of alpha-gustducin expression during cell renewal in rat vallate taste buds 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
The G protein subunit alpha-gustducin is expressed in a subset of light
(Type II) but not in dark (Type I) cells in rat vallate taste buds. The
thymidine analogue 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) is incorporated into DNA
during the S-phase of the cell cycle and can be used to determine the time
of origin of a cell. In this study, 31 rats were injected with BrdU (50
mg/kg i.p.) and perfused at various times, from 2.5 to 10.5 days, following
BrdU administration. Vallate papillae were embedded in polyester wax, cut
into 4 microm transverse sections, and characterized with antibodies to
BrdU and alpha-gustducin. Sections were processed for indirect
immunofluorescence or with an immunoperoxidase procedure. From
immunoperoxidase material on 21 rats, counts of alpha-gustducin- and
BrdU-labeled cells were obtained from 300-800 taste bud profiles at each
survival time; a total of 4122 taste bud profiles were examined. Cells with
nuclei immunoreactive for BrdU occurred within the taste buds at 2.5 days
and double-labeled cells were clearly evident at 3.5 days; a small number
of double-labeled cells were seen as early as 2.5 days. Double-labeled
cells reached a peak at 6.5 days and did not decline significantly by 10.5
days. Cells labeled for BrdU but not alpha-gustducin peaked at 5.5 days and
showed a significant decline by 8.5 days. These latter cells included light
cells not expressing alpha- gustducin and dark cells, which have previously
been shown to have a shorter life span than light cells. These data suggest
that expression of alpha-gustducin appears very early in a cell's life span
and that these cells are longer lived than many of the cells that do not
express this G protein.

Summary Effect of colchicine on the ultrastructure of taste bud cells was studied in the mouse. In untreated mice microtubules were abundant throughout the entire cytoplasm of type-III cells, but only in the apical cytoplasm of type-I cells. After 2 h of colchicine treatment, no microtubules were observed in any taste bud cells; dense secretory granules in the apical cytoplasm of type-I cells mostly disappeared, and instead, numerous phagosomes appeared. It is suggested that colchicine causes an interruption of the transport of the secretory granules in type-I cells from the Golgi apparatus to the membrane of the apical surface, from which release occurs. In type-III cells, after 4 or 5 h of treatment, dense-cored vesicles scattered throughout the cytoplasm tended to increase in number; they were often observed to accumulate in the vicinity of the Golgi apparatus. Five hours after treatment with 5-hydroxy-l-tryptophan (5-HTP) following colchicine pretreatment, monoamine specific fluorescent cells and vesicles with highly electron-dense cores of type-III cells were still present. On the other hand, 5 h after 5-HTP treatment alone both fluorescent cells and vesicles with highly electron-dense cores had already disappeared. These observations suggest that the treatment with colchicine interrupts the transport of densecored vesicles of type-III cells to synaptic areas, in which those vesicles are presumed to discharge the neurotransmitter substance. 相似文献

COPI-coated vesicles that bud off the Golgi complex contain two major transmembrane proteins, p23 and p24. We have localized the protein at the Golgi complex and at COPI-coated vesicles. Transport from the intermediate compartment (IC) to the Golgi can be blocked at 15 degrees C, and under these conditions p24 accumulates in peripheral punctated structures identified as IC. Release from the temperature block leads to a redistribution of p24 to the Golgi, showing that p24, similar to p23, cycles between the IC and Golgi complex. Immunoprecipitations of p24 from cell lysates and from detergent-solubilized Golgi membranes and COPI-coated vesicles show that p24 and p23 interact with each other to form a complex. Transient transfection of p23 in HeLa cells shows that p23 and p24 colocalize in structures induced by the overexpression of p23. Taken together p24 interacts with p23 and constitutively cycles between the organelles of the early secretory pathway. 相似文献

Mash1, a mammalian homologue of the Drosophila achaete-scute proneural gene complex, plays an essential role in differentiation of subsets of peripheral neurons. In this study, using RT-PCR and in situ RT-PCR, we investigated if Mash1 gene expression occurs in rat taste buds. Further, we examined dynamics of Mash1 expression in the process of degeneration and regeneration in denervated rat taste buds. In rat tongue epithelium, Mash1 gene expression is confined to circumvallate, foliate, and fungiform papilla epithelia that include taste buds. In taste buds, Mash1-expressing cells are round cells in the basal compartment. In contrast, the mature taste bud cells do not express the Mash1 gene. Denervation and regeneration experiments show that the expression of Mash1 requires gustatory innervation. We conclude that Mash1 is expressed in cells of the taste bud lineage, and that the expression of Mash1 in rat taste buds is dependent upon gustatory innervation. 相似文献

Enlargement of secretory vesicles by protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP-MEG2 in rat basophilic leukemia mast cells and Jurkat T cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Wang X Huynh H Gjörloff-Wingren A Monosov E Stridsberg M Fukuda M Mustelin T 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2002,168(9):4612-4619
Stimulus-induced secretion of bioactive polypeptides is a fundamental aspect of the immune system. Secretory proteins are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum and are transported through the Golgi apparatus to the trans-Golgi network, where they are sorted into transport vesicles that bud off and fuse into condensing vacuoles, which subsequently undergo an editing and concentration process to become mature secretory vesicles. In this study, we report that the PTP-MEG2 protein tyrosine phosphatase is located on these vesicles in mast cells. Expression of PTP-MEG2 caused a striking enlargement of these vesicles in both rat basophilic leukemia mast cells and Jurkat T leukemia cells into giant vesicles with diameters of up to several micrometers. The fused vesicles did not acquire markers for other compartments and were adjacent to the trans-Golgi network, contained carboxypeptidase E, chromogranin C, and IL-2, and had an electron-dense core typical of secretory vesicles. Expression of PTP-MEG2 also caused a reduction in the secretion of IL-2 from stimulated Jurkat cells. The effects of PTP-MEG2 on secretory vesicles required the catalytic activity of PTP-MEG2 and was rapidly reversed by pervanadate. We propose that PTP-MEG2 represents a novel connection between tyrosine dephosphorylation and the regulation of secretory vesicles in hematopoietic cells. 相似文献

Secretory organelles in ECL cells of the rat stomach: an immunohistochemical and electron-microscopic study 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
ECL cells are numerous in the rat stomach. They produce and store histamine and chromogranin-A (CGA)-derived peptides such as pancreastatin and respond to gastrin with secretion of these products. Numerous electron-lucent vesicles of varying size and a few small, dense-cored granules are found in the cytoplasm. Using confocal and electron microscopy, we examined these organelles and their metamorphosis as they underwent intracellular transport from the Golgi area to the cell periphery. ECL-cell histamine was found to occur in both cytosol and secretory vesicles. Histidine decarboxylase, the histamine-forming enzyme, was in the cytosol, while pancreastatin (and possibly other peptide products) was confined to the dense cores of granules and secretory vesicles. Dense-cored granules and small, clear microvesicles were more numerous in the Golgi area than in the docking zone, i.e. close to the plasma membrane. Secretory vesicles were numerous in both Golgi area and docking zone, where they were sometimes seen to be attached to the plasma membrane. Upon acute gastrin stimulation, histamine was mobilized and the compartment size (volume density) of secretory vesicles in the docking zone was decreased, while the compartment size of microvesicles was increased. Based on these findings, we propose the following life cycle of secretory organelles in ECL cells: small, electron-lucent microvesicles (pro-granules) bud off the trans Golgi network, carrying proteins and secretory peptide precursors (such as CGA and an anticipated prohormone). They are transformed into dense-cored granules (approximate profile diameter 100 nm) while still in the trans Golgi area. Pro-granules and granules accumulate histamine, which leads to their metamorphosis into dense-cored secretory vesicles. In the Golgi area the secretory vesicles have an approximate profile diameter of 150 nm. By the time they reach their destination in the docking zone, their profile diameter is between 200 and 500 nm. Exocytosis is coupled with endocytosis (membrane retrieval), and microvesicles in the docking zone are likely to represent membrane retrieval vesicles (endocytotic vesicles). 相似文献

Morphological effects of brefeldin A on the intracellular transport of secretory materials in parotid acinar cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The morphological effects of Brefeldin A (BFA) on the parotid acinar cells of a rat were investigated at the stage of active resynthesis of secretory materials following administration of the secretogogue, isoproterenol. Incubation with BFA resulted in: a) marked dilation of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), b) involution of the Golgi complex to rudimentary forms which disseminated throughout the cytoplasm, and c) agenesis of secretion granules. It appears that the primary action of BFA is inhibition of the export of secretory materials from the RER toward the Golgi complexes. Histochemical staining indicated the thiamine pyrophosphatase (TPPase) positive saccules of the Golgi stack to undergo degradation in autophagic vacuoles. In contrast, small vesicles showing the osmium reducing activity characteristic of cis elements, including osmium negative vesicles, continued to be present throughout a 4-h period of investigation, indicating the cis and, most likely, medial elements to be the components of the rudimentary Golgi complexes. On removal of the drug, a large number of transport vesicles appeared immediately from the RER and carried secretory materials to the rudimentary Golgi complex, so that the organelles were rapidly reconstructed within 30-60 min, followed by the reaccumulation of secretory granules by 90 min. It is thus indicated that the size and configuration of the Golgi complex is regulated by a dynamic equilibrium of the transport of secretory materials, and that the rudimentary Golgi complex containing cis and probably medial elements may function as the smallest units of the Golgi complex for full development as seen under normal conditions. 相似文献

Maintenance of rat taste buds in primary culture 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The differentiated taste bud is a complex end organ consisting of multiple cell types with various morphological, immunocytochemical and electrophysiological characteristics. Individual taste cells have a limited lifespan and are regularly replaced by a proliferative basal cell population. The specific factors contributing to the maintenance of a differentiated taste bud are largely unknown. Supporting isolated taste buds in culture would allow controlled investigation of factors relevant to taste bud survival. Here we describe the culture and maintenance of isolated rat taste buds at room temperature and at 37 degrees C. Differentiated taste buds can be sustained for up to 14 days at room temperature and for 3-4 days at 37 degrees C. Over these periods individual cells within the cultured buds maintain an elongated morphology. Further, the taste cells remain electrically excitable and retain various proteins indicative of a differentiated phenotype. Despite the apparent health of differentiated taste cells, cell division occurs for only a short period following plating, suggesting that proliferating cells in the taste bud are quickly affected by isolation and culture. 相似文献

Developing taste buds in the anterior mandibular floor of perihatching
chicks were studied by high voltage electron microscopic autoradiography in
order to identify proliferating gemmal cell types. Montaged profiles of 29
taste buds in five cases euthanized between embryonic day 21 and
posthatching day 2 were analyzed after a single [3H]thymidine injection
administered on embryonic day 16, 17 or 18. Results showed that dark cells
comprised 55% of identified (n = 900 cells) and 62% of labeled (n = 568
cells) gemmal cells as compared with light, intermediate, basal or
perigemmal bud cells. Dark cells had both a greater (P < 0.05) number of
labeled cells and a greater amount of label (grains/nucleus) than the other
four bud cell types, irrespective of injection day. The nuclear area
(micron 2) of dark cells was not significantly larger (P > 0.05) than
that of the other gemmal cell types and therefore cannot account for the
greater amount for label in the dark cells. Interestingly, only dark cells
showed a positive correlation (P < 0.003) between amount of label and
nuclear area. Results suggest that, during the perihatching period of
robust cell proliferation, dividing dark cells may give rise primarily, but
not exclusively, to dark cell progeny.

Renewal of taste bud cells on the barbels of channel catfish was studied. Groups of catfish, held in and acclimitized to 14 degrees C, 18 degrees C, 22 degrees C and 30 degrees C dechlorinated tap water were injected with [3H]thymidine (3.0 muCi/g body weight intraperitoneally). Barbels were sampled at various times after injection and prepared for light microscope autoradiography. Results show that epithelial cells surrounding the taste buds divide and some of their daughter cells migrate into the taste buds. The time at which 50% of the labelled cells have degenerated is taken as the average turnover time or average life span of the taste bud cells. The average life span as well as the time spent inside the taste buds is highly temperature-dependent. At 14 degrees C, 18 degrees C, 22 degrees C and 30 degrees C the average life span is on the order of 40, 30, 15 and 12 days respectively. Further studies indicate that both light and dark staining cells of the taste bud were labelled. 相似文献
