The histochemistry of carbohydrates has been studied in the skin of the pig snout with selected methods of light microscopy including peroxidase-labelled lectin-diaminobenzidine (PO-LT-DAB) procedures. In the snout skin the dark secretory cells and the luminal secretion of the eccrine glands contained considerable amounts of neutral glycoproteins, but only a very small amount of acidic ones. It was possible to demonstrate glycogen in the secretory cells of these glands. The other skin structures of the snout also showed positive reactions for complex carbohydrates. Most remarkable were stronger reactions of intercellular substances among the spinosum cells, particularly following the PO-LT-DAB procedures, which demonstrated such saccharide residues as beta-D-galactose and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine.  相似文献

The positive results of the reactions for alkaline and acid phosphatases were obtained in epithelial cells of Cowper's glands in rats. Observations under the electron microscope allowed us to state that alkaline phosphatase was localized in the cell's areola, in membranes of smooth intraplasmic reticulum and in the basement membrane of the epithelium. The acid phosphatase was seen in primary lysosomes as well as in the secondary ones, which are seldom seen on unincubated specimens.  相似文献

We studied the localization of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) in eccrine and apocrine sweat glands with light microscopic and electron microscopic immunohistochemistry. Anti-human EGF (anti-hEGF) polyclonal antiserum and anti-hEGF monoclonal antibody (MAb) were used for the study. Light microscopic immunohistochemistry with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies showed that hEGF-like immunoreactivity was strongly positive in the myoepithelial cells and weakly positive in the secretory cells of eccrine sweat glands. In apocrine sweat glands, it was strongly positive in the secretory cells as well as in the myoepithelial cells. Immunoelectron microscopy with polyclonal antibody showed that hEGF-like immunoreactivity was present in secretory granules of apocrine secretory cells. These granules had mitochondrion-like internal structure. No reactivity was observed on the eccrine secretory cells by immunoelectron microscopy. Neither dark cell granules nor mitochondria in eccrine secretory cells were labeled with anti-hEGF antibody. In both eccrine and apocrine sweat glands, hEGF-like immunoreactivity was diffusely present in the cytoplasm of myoepithelial cells. However, nuclei and mitochondria of myoepithelial cells were devoid of immunoreactivity for hEGF. Our observations indicate that apocrine sweat glands may secrete more hEGF in the sweat than eccrine sweat glands.  相似文献

The sweat gland primordium appeared as a solid bud from the ental side of the epithelial cords of the growing hair follicles in the CRL 36 cm-fetus from the primary hair follicles and in the CRL 64 cm-fetus from the secondary ones. In the CRL 68 cm-fetus the glands were tubular with a slight curving of their lower third, which became convoluted at the CRL 83 cm-stage. At the latter age, clear myoepithelial cells were observed in the secretory portion as also in the duct. The buds of the sebaceous glands could be observed in the CRL 45 cm-fetus from the primary hair follicles and in the CRL 68 cm-fetus from the secondary ones. At the CRL 83 cm-fetal stage, the branched glands were elongated in shape and opened into the follicles by two separated ducts, united at the hair canal. The glands were in function nearly from its early development.  相似文献

Functional integrity of the regenerated tissues requires not only structural integrity but also vascularization and innervation. We previously demonstrated that the three-dimensional (3D) reconstructed eccrine sweat glands had similar structures as those of the native ones did, but whether the 3D reconstructed glands possessing vascularization and innervation was still unknown. In the study, Matrigel-embedded eccrine sweat gland cells were implanted under the inguinal skin. Ten weeks post-implantation, the vascularization, and innervation in the 10-week reconstructed eccrine sweat glands and native human eccrine sweat glands were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The results showed that the fluorescent signals of general neuronal marker protein gene product 9.5, adrenergic nerve fiber marker tyrosine hydroxylase, and cholinergic nerve fiber markers acetylcholinesterase and vasoactive intestinal peptide embraced the 3D reconstructed glands in circular patterns, as the signals appeared in native eccrine sweat glands. There were many CD31- and von Willebrand factor-positive vessels growing into the plugs. We demonstrated that the 3D reconstructed eccrine sweat glands were nourished by blood vessels, and we for the first time demonstrated that the engineering sweat glands were innervated by both cholinergic and adrenergic fibers. In conclusion, the 3D reconstructed eccrine sweat glands may have functions as the native ones do.  相似文献

The ontogeny of the digestive tract of the white seabream, Diplodus sargus during the larval development up to day 45 post-hatching (dph) has been studied using histological and histochemical techniques. The oesophageal goblet cells appeared around 6 dph and contained neutral and acid mucosubstances (PAS/diastase-PAS and Alcian Blue pH 2.5 positive reactions). An incipient stomach can be distinguished from 2 dph but the first sign of gastric gland development was detected around 13-15 dph, increasing in number and size by 22-23 dph. Gastric glands were concentrated in the cardiac stomach region and they had a high content of protein rich in tyrosine, arginine and tryptophan. Acidophilic supranuclear inclusions related to pynocitosis of proteins, were already observed in the intestinal cells of the posterior intestine around 4-6 dph (exogenous feeding) and they were present until 25 dph. The intestinal mucous cells appeared between 15-18 dph and contained a mixture of neutral and acid mucosubstances/glycoconjugates, carboxylated ones being more abundant than the sulphated ones. The stomach and gastric glands were fully developed by the first month of life marking the beginning of digestive features characteristic of the juvenile stage. Around 4-6 dph, glycogen, proteins and neutral lipids were observed in the granular cytoplasm of hepatocytes. Strongly acidophilic zymogen granules were also present, at this time, in the basophilic cytoplasm of the exocrine pancreatic acinar cells and contained abundant proteins, especially rich in arginine, tyrosine and tryptophan.  相似文献

Differential interference contrast, transmission electron and epifluorescence microscopy techniques were employed to examine the ultrastructure of the rectal glands in Heterorhabditis bacteriophora hermaphrodites, with special attention to the location of Photorhabdus bacteria symbionts within these structures. Three rectal glands were clearly visualized in all examined specimens, with two glands positioned sub-ventrally and another gland located dorsally. The dorsal rectal gland in all examined specimens is larger than the subventral ones. Our observations indicate that Photorhabdus bacteria do not colonize the rectal glands of H. bacteriophora hermaphrodites, but rather are present in the most posterior-intestinal cells.  相似文献

A milk membrane glycoprotein, MFG-E8 [milk fat globule-EGF (epidermal growth factor) factor 8], is expressed abundantly in lactating mammary glands in stage- and tissue-specific manners, and has been believed to be secreted in association with milk fat globules. In the present paper, we describe further up-regulation of MFG-E8 in involuting mammary glands, where the glands undergo a substantial increase in the rate of epithelial cell apoptosis, and a possible role of MFG-E8 in mediating recognition and engulfment of apoptotic cells through its specific binding to PS (phosphatidylserine). Immunoblotting and RNA blotting analyses revealed that both MFG-E8 protein and MFG-E8 mRNA were markedly increased in mammary tissue within 3 days of either natural or forced weaning (pup withdrawal) of lactating mice. Using immunohistochemical analysis of the mammary tissue cryosections, the MFG-E8 signal was detected around the epithelium of such involuting mammary glands, but was almost undetectable at early- and mid-lactation stages, although strong signals were obtained for milk fat globules stored in the alveolar lumen. Some signals double positive to a macrophage differentiation marker, CD68, and MFG-E8 were detected in the post-weaning mammary tissue, although such double-positive signals were much smaller in number than the MFG-E8 single-positive ones. Total MFG-E8 in milk was also increased in the post-weaning mammary glands and, furthermore, the free MFG-E8 content in the post-weaning milk, as measured by in vitro PS-binding and apoptotic HC11 cell-binding activities, was much higher than that of lactation. In addition, the post-weaning milk enhanced the binding of apoptotic HC11 cells to J774 macrophages. Sucrose density-gradient ultracentrifugation analyses revealed that such enhanced PS-binding activity of MFG-E8 was present in membrane vesicle fractions (density 1.05-1.13 g/ml), rather than milk fat globule fractions. The weaning-induced MFG-E8 might play an important role in the recognition and engulfment of apoptotic epithelial cells by the neighbouring phagocytic epithelial cells in involuting mammary glands.  相似文献

The ultrastructure of trichomes of intact and in vitro plants of stevia were investigated under scanning and transmission electronic microscopy. Three types of trichomes were found on both the upper and lower surfaces of the leaf: viz. rounded glands and large and small trichome. The density of trichomes on the surface of upper leaves is higher than on lower leaves, while in vitro plants are characterized with lower density of trichomes than intact ones. The positive correlation between number of trichomes on leaves and content of steviol glycosides (SGs) in them was found. Three basic stages of ontogeny of gland cells were revealed which reflect the sequence of secrete accumulation.  相似文献

By SEM we have investigated the human minor salivary glands using the NaOH method for the visualization of endpieces and myoepithelial cells, and the osmium maceration technique that reveals membranous intracellular structures. With the former method all minor glands, including the posterior deep (Ebner's) lingual glands, consist of tubules sometimes dilated into alveoli, while true acini of the kind observed in human major salivary glands, are absent. Tubules of the posterior deep lingual gland exhibit stellate myoepitelial cells that leave a substantial part of the secretory cells uncovered. The latter cells, at variance with serous cells of major glands, do not show basal folds. In contrast, tubules of the other minor glands, like the mucous ones of major glands, are covered almost completely by band-like myoepithelial cells. The osmium maceration method clearly demonstrates that posterior deep lingual glands are serous in character and that all the other minor glands, together with the predominant mucous cells, possess a variable number of seromucous cells that, despite variations among individuals, increase in order from palatine and posterior superficial lingual (Weber's), to minor sublingual, labial, anterior lingual (Blandin and Nuhn's), and buccal glands.  相似文献

The obtained results show that secretory elements of the tongue integuments submerged to the depth of the organ. It was accompanied by a formation and complication of terminal portions of the glands and their secretory pathways. In the process of evolution there occurred a divergence in the development of glandular cells from mucous ones in fishes through mucoserous and seromucous cells of amphibia and reptiles to mucous, seromucous and protein cells in the tongue glands of higher mammals. In mucous glands of terranian vertebrates, especially in mammals, the number of components in the composition of the produced secretion was found to increase.  相似文献

The postnatal development of the three major salivary glands (parotid, submaxillary and sublingual) was comparatively followed up from the histological viewpoint and in relation with some histochemical reactions. The sublingual gland presented a well developed cytomorphological structure at birth, whereas the parotid and the submaxillary one, immature at birth, gradually reached the overall appearance of adult glands, the former at 5 - 6 weeks, the latter at 8 weeks. In relation with the product secreted, it is already from birth that the parotid and the submaxillary glands presented negative reactions for mucosubstances and positive ones for revealing the protein-bound groups. The sublingual gland exhibited from the first postnatal 24 hrs positive reactions for revealing mucosubstances at the level of glandular secretory glands.  相似文献

Aedes albopictus as well as Aedes aegypti is an important vector of chikungunya and dengue viruses. Electron microscopic observations on the salivary glands of Ae. albopictus infected with chikungunya virus were performed in comparing with those of Ae. aegypti infected with dengue virus. No virus budding from the cell surface of the chikungunya-infected mosquito's salivary glands was found as shown in dengue-infected ones, in contrast to the findings of the mammalian cells such as Vero, KB, IMR, J-111 and BHK-21 cells infected with chikungunya and/or dengue virus(es).  相似文献

Immunohistochemical identification of lysozyme and lactoferrin was made in salivary pleomorphic adenomas (147 cases) and the staining patterns were evaluated with respect to the histological features and histogenesis. In normal salivary glands, the intercalated duct cells gave positive staining for lysozyme in major glands, and serous acinar cells, demilune cells, and interlobular duct cells were positive in minor glands. Lactoferrin staining was irregularly positive in serous cells and ductal epithelium. In pleomorphic adenomas, the reaction for lysozyme was positive in 14% (21/147) of the cases, and was confined to luminal cells of tubulo-ductal structures. Lactoferrin in pleomorphic adenomas was distributed in luminal tumor cells (51%; 75/147), in outer tumor cells (3%; 4/147), and in both luminal and outer tumor cells (5%; 7/147) in tubulo-ductal structures; it was also detected in plasmacytoid myoepithelial cells (5%, 8/147). However, modified myoepithelial cells and other types of neoplastic myoepithelial participants were negative for lactoferrin staining. The occurrence of both lysozyme and lactoferrin in salivary pleomorphic adenomas suggests their participation in the local defense mechanism in the tumor.  相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) in rat salivary glands is regulated by testosterone, thyroxin, and growth hormone (GH). Salivary glands of 45-day-old giant and dwarf male and female transgenic mice were examined histologically and by immunohistochemistry (IHC) for EGF. Male giants showed no significant differences from wild-type (WT) parotid and submandibular glands. However, their sublingual glands expressed EGF diffusely and strongly in granular cells within the striated ducts, where they were not found in WT mice. Submandibular gland ducts of female WT were different, having individual granular cells strongly positive for EGF and distributed sporadically along the striated duct walls. Neither female GH-antagonist dwarf mice nor GH-receptor knockout mice had any granular cells expressing EGF in any gland. Obvious presence of granular duct cells in the sublingual glands of giant male mice suggests GH-upregulated granular cell EGF expression. Furthermore, absence of granular duct cells from all glands in female GH-antagonist and GH-receptor knockout transgenic mice suggests that GH is necessary for the differentiation of the granular cell phenotype in female salivary glands.  相似文献

The ultrastructure of epidermal glands in neotenic reproductives of Prorhinotermes simplex is described and their development is compared among young and old neotenics of both sexes. Secretory cells forming the epidermal gland are attached to the cuticle all over the body. The glands are formed by class 1 and class 3 secretory cells and corresponding canal cells with secretory function. Class 1 cells are sandglass-like and class 3 secretory units are located among them. Class 1 cells contain predominantly tubular endoplasmic reticulum, the major part represents the smooth and the minor the rough form. Numerous electron dense granules occur in the cytoplasm, they are always disintegrated prior to be released. Class 3 secretory cells contain a large amount of vacuoles, which are always lucent in males while newly produced vacuoles are dense in females. Dense vacuoles are frequently transformed into lucent ones before being released. Canal cells are locally equipped with microvilli. The conducting canal is surrounded by an electron dense secretion of regular inner structure. The cytoplasm of the canal cell contains numerous mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum and a large proportion of microtubules. The young neotenic reproductives differ from the old ones by a lower amount of secretory products. Epidermal glands probably produce substances inhibiting the occurrence of superfluous reproductives.  相似文献

The parathyroid hormone (PTH) acts on bones, intestines, and kidneys to maintain the calcium homeostasis which, in turn, is a main factor in controling the parathyroid (PT) gland activity. In all mammals studied, the chief cells of PT glands changed their size, shape, and cytoplasmic structure due to different functional states which vary the serum calcium levels. The chief cells of the rat PT glands were classified as dark and light. The dark cells may constitute an active form, characterized mainly by the abundant free ribosomes, conspicuous rough endoplasmic reticulum, and GOLGI complexes, greater number of secretory granules (SG) and increased tortuosity of the plasma membranes as compared to the light ones which were considered as a less active type of cells. Due to different calcium requirements in newborn and young rats for the ossification of growing skeleton and in adult and senile rats with consolidate mature bones, the PT glands studied with electron microscope showed various cytological features. The parenchyma of newborn and young PT glands was composed by dark chief cells. The light chief cells were more frequent in adult and senile animals as a less active type of cell. Mature SG were only occasionally observed in dark cells of newborn, young and adult PT glands. They may constitute a reserve supply of PTH but probably not the main way of secretion, according to their little number. Another pool of PTH probably answers the needs for the small basal variations in the steady-state secretion and may be represented by the vesicles observed in the chief cells cytoplasm.  相似文献

Adenosine deaminase complexing proteins have been localized in four exocrine glands of the rabbit by immunoperoxidase staining employing affinity-purified goat anti-rabbit complexing protein immunoglobulin as the primary antibody. In pancreatic acinar cells and in serous cells of Brunner glands (duodenal glands), staining was concentrated in granular appearing deposits between the nucleus and cell apex. Bile canaliculi, components of the exocrine liver, were also positive for complexing protein. In submaxillary glands, staining was localized in serous demilunes and striated ducts. In each instance staining was blocked by preincubating the primary antibody with complexing protein purified from rabbit kidney.  相似文献

 The distribution of S-100 protein and its α- and β-subunits in bovine exocrine glands was studied by indirect immunohistochemistry. The entire spectrum of salivary glands, glands of the respiratory tract, intestinal glands, male and female genital glands, and skin glands was examined. S-100 and its β-subunit were identified in most serous secretory cells of mixed salivary glands, although secretory acini in some serous glands remained unreactive for these antigens. Mucous cells were constantly negative; mucoid cells were positive in the lacrimal and Harderian gland. The α-subunit of S-100 protein was identified in serous cells but the staining reaction was faint. Subunits of S-100 showed a characteristic distribution along the excretory duct systems of compound glands: S-100 and the β-subunit were present in intercalated duct epithelium, while striated duct epithelium stained for S100-α. Therefore, it is suggested that S100-α is related to resorption and secretion in striated ducts, while S100-β may govern acinar exocytosis and probably regulates proliferation and differentiation of glandular cells. Differing staining intensities for S-100 and its subunits in secretory cells of exocrine glands most probably indicate functional differences with regard to secretory activity and the cell cycle.
