Summary The dorsal tegument of the mature cercaria of Notocotylus attenuatus is a syncytial, cytoplasmic layer, containing two types of secretory granule which are identifiable ultrastructurally. The type 1 secretory bodies are electron lucid, whereas most type 2 granules have a banded appearance. The ventral tegument contains granules which are secreted from the type 3 cells; the type 3 granules are membrane bound, electron dense, and consist of both an amorphous and a finely striated zone. The type 4 cells mainly contain cigar-shaped granules consisting of an amorphous core surrounded by concentric striations. The granules exhibit structural variability in shape and content. The type 4 cells undergo a cellular migration to the tegument during encystment. The structure of the posterior-lateral glands and mode of secretion of the granules are described. Possible functions of microtubules are discussed for each cell type. Details of some secretory processes involved in the formation of the hemispherical cyst wall are described. The layers of the cyst wall may be related to the granular contents of the various parenchymal cells of the cercaria. The tegument of the metacercaria originates primarily from the cytoplasm of the type 1, type 2, type 3 and type 4 cells. 相似文献

Zusammenfassung Die Ultrastruktur des Nucleus infundibularis tuberis, der Zona interna, der Zona externa und des Hypophysenhinterlappens von Meerschweinchen wird beschrieben. Vergleichende Beobachtungen an den Nervenfasern der genannten Gebiete zeitigen folgende Ergebnisse:Die Axone der Zona interna und des Hypophysenhinterlappens enthalten gleichgeartete, große neurosekretorische Elementargranula (1,400 Å). Die Axonquerschnitte im Bereich des Nucleus infundibularis tuberis und der Zona externa weisen Granula gleichen Kalibers (800 Å) auf und lassen damit auf einen funktionell-morphologischen Zusammenhang des Nucleus infundiburis und der Zona externa schließen. Ob die kleinen Elementargranula das morphologische Substrat der sogenannten releasing factors darstellen oder ob es sich um adrenerge Axone und Endigungen mit typischen Katecholamingranula handelt, ist nicht zu klären.Es wird unterschieden zwischen echten Synapsen und synapsenähnlichen Kontakten. Nur erstere zeigen alle klassischen Synapsenmerkmale. Ihnen sind im Bereich der Neurohypophyse axosomatische und interaxonale Synapsen zuzuordnen. Zona externa und Hypophysenhinterlappen stellen neurohämale Kontaktzonen dar und zeichnen sich durch gleichartig konstruierte Synapsen aus. Neben interaxonalen Synapsen treten vor allem neurokapilläre Kontakte in den Vordergrund. In der Zona externa sind die Tanyzyten synaptisch mit Axonen verknüpft, so wie im Hypophysenhinterlappen die Pituizyten synaptische Verbindungen mit Nervenfasern eingehen. Die synapsenähnlichen Bildungen im Verlauf und an den Enden der Axone können somit neurokapillärer, neurotanyzytärer und neuropituizytärer Natur sein. Sie enthalten neben den synaptischen Vesikeln auch meist kleine oder große Elementargranula. Die ähnliche Morphologie der synaptischen Bildungen in der Zona externa und im Hinterlappen läßt einen gleichgearteten Inkretionsmechanismus beider neurohypophysärer Abschnitte vermuten. Tanyzyten und Pituizyten könnten dabei eine Überträgerfunktion ausüben. Eine rezeptorische Funktion der Tanyzyten wird gleichfalls diskutiert.Die Drüsenzellen der Pars intermedia der Hypophyse sind durch direkte neuroglanduläre Kontakte mit den Neuronen des Hypothalamus verknüpft. Die Axone stülpen sich hierbei tief in das Zytoplasma der Drüsenzellen ein. Es entstehen dadurch beim Meerschweinchen drei nervöse Endigungsformen, die Synapsen ausbilden: 1. Endigungen, die nur synaptische Vesikel enthalten; 2. Endigungen mit synaptischen Vesikeln und kleinen Granula; 3. Endigungen mit synaptischen Vesikeln und großen Granula.Zwischen den Drüsenzellen der Pars infundibularis der Adenohypophyse sind ebenfalls Axonquerschnitte zu beobachten. Es handelt sich dabei entweder um vegetative Faserbündel oder Nervenfasern mit kleinen Granula wie in der Zona externa (800 Å).
Summary The ultrastructure of the nucleus infundibularis tuberis, the inner and outer layer of the median eminence and the posterior lobe of the guinea pig are described. Comparative studies on the nerve fibres of these regions lead to the following conclusions:The axons of the inner layer of the median eminence and of the posterior lobe contain similar types of large, neurosecretory elementary granules (Diameter 1400 Å).The cross-sections of the axons in the area of the nucleus infundibularis tuberis and of the outer layer of the median eminence exhibit the same sized granules (Diameter 800 Å), which points to a functional-morphological relationship between the two. Whether the small elementary granules represent the morphological substrate of the so-called releasing factors, or whether it is a question of adrenergic axons and terminations with typical catecholamine granules, is undecided.A distinction is made between true synapses and synapse-like contacts. Only the former display all the classical characteristics of synapses. To this sort must be classed the axosomatic and interaxonal synapses in the neurohypophysis. The external layer of the median eminence and the posterior lobe are distinguished by neurohaemal contact areas and show similarly constructed synapses. Of particular prominence, besides interaxonal synapses, are neurocapillary contiguities. Just as in the posterior lobe the pituicytes show synaptic connections with nerve fibres, so are the tanycytes in the outer layer of the median eminence in synaptical contact with axons. Thus the synapse-like formations along and at the endings of the axons can be of a neurocapillary, neurotanycytial and neuropituicytial nature. They contain, apart from the synaptic vesicles, mainly small but also large elementary granules. The similar morphology of the synaptic formations in the outer layer of the median eminence and the posterior lobe suggests the existence of a similar mechanism of internal secretion in both these neurohypophysial areas. Tanycytes and pituicytes could exercise a carrier function. A possible receptor-function of the tanycytes is considered.The glandular cells of the pars intermedia of the hypophysis are linked by means of direct neuroglandular contacts with the neurons of the hypothalamus, whereby the axons make deep incursions into the cytoplasm of the glandular cells. In the guinea pig three types of termination can be observed that form synapses: 1. terminations that contain only synaptic vesicles; 2. terminations with small granules; 3. terminations with large granules.Cross-sections of axons can also be observed between the glandular cells of the pars infundibularis of the adenohypophysis. Here they can be identified either as vegetative fibre-bundles or as nerve fibres with small granules, such as occur in the outer layer of the median eminence (Diameter 800 Å).相似文献

Summary The neurohypophysis of sexually mature male and female Acipenser güldenstädti Brandt and Acipenser stellatus Pallas was studied light and electron microscopically. The recessus hypophysei lined with ependymal cells of two main types, narrow and wide, are in the center of the neurohypophysial roots. Processes from both cell types run radially to the basement membrane of the connective tissue layers abutting on the hypophysial intermediate lobe. Protrusions penetrating deep into the recessus hypophyseus are found in the apical parts of the wide cells. Pituicytes are rare in the neurohypophysis. The ultrastructure of both ependymal cell types and of the pituicytes is described. Nonmyelinated Gomori-positive (peptidergic) neurosecretory A1 and A2 type fibres and their terminals containing elementary neurosecretory granules (1400–1800 Å and 1000–1400 Å respectively) are the main structural elements of the neurohypophysis. Some dark and single myelinated neurosecretory fibres have been found. The adrenergic fibres (type B) were described earlier (Polenov et al., 1972a). The structural peculiarities of the neurohypophysis are discussed in functional and comparative-morphological terms. 相似文献

Tissue-cultured plantlets of three sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) cultivars having a known field smut reaction were screened for susceptibility to Ustilago scitaminea H&P Sydow. Plantlets were inoculated with 0.5 l of a suspension of equally mixed quantities of plus and minus mating type sporidia of U. scitaminea at concentrations ranging from 1×101 to 1×106 cells. Fungal sori (whips) were produced in cultivar N12 (intermediate) 6weeks following inoculation with 1×105 mixed sporidia and thereafter in cultivar NCo310 (susceptible) but not in cultivar N19 (resistant). Sori bearing teliospores were produced up to 3months following inoculation and incubation at 26°C. No sori were produced at mixed sporidial concentrations lower than 1×105cells. The in vitro soral production in cultivars N19, N12 and NCo310 was 0, 27.5 and 47.5% respectively. Plantlets inoculated with 1×105sporidia of only one mating-type did not produce sori in any of the three cultivars tested. Blind scoring of an unknown sugarcane cultivar by this method corresponded exactly with its field smut rating. 相似文献

Ultrastructure of four types of striated muscle fibers in the atlantic hagfish (Myxine glutinosa,L.)
Summary Four types of striated muscle fibers with distinctive ultrastructure were defined in the Atlantic hagfish (Myxine glutinosa, L.): white, intermediate, and red fibers of m. parietalis, and red fibers of m. craniovelaris.White fibers are thick, contain very few mitochondria and fat vacuoles, and possess distinct and separate myofibrils with thin Z-disks and distinct M-lines. Intermediate fibers are thinner, possess largely similar myofibrils that often are even better separated due to a higher content of fat vacuoles and especially mitochondria and glycogen granules. Red fibers of m. parietalis contain large amounts of mitochondria, fat vacuoles, and glycogen granules. Their myofibrils possess M-lines, and although branching more, the myofibrils of red fibers conform with a Fibrillenstruktur pattern like those of white and intermediate fibers. Red fibers of m. craniovelaris are very thin, possess many smaller fat vacuoles, and large amounts of mitochondria and glycogen granules. The myofibrils are significantly thinner than in m. parietalis fibers, run as quite independent well separated units, possess thicker Z-disks, and lack M-lines. Large amounts of myosatellite cells are associated with these red fibers.Triads are located near A/I-junctions in all four fiber types and occur irregularly, the density of triads being different in the various fiber types.We are indebted to Dr. Finn Walvig, Biological Station, University of Oslo, Drøbak, for supply of hagfishes, and we also wish to thank Dr. Jan K. S. Jansen, Institute of Physiology, University of Oslo, for valuable suggestions during this study. 相似文献

We have analyzed the hemoglobins of five individual trout from the Ohrid Lake (Salmo L. typicus) by electrophoretic methods, by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, and by limited structural analyses. The two major classes of hemoglobin are type I (35% of total) and type IV (65%). Type IV is the major oxygen-transporting hemoglobin; it consists of three types of chain (in about equal quantities) and three types of chain (one major and two minor types). Several structural differences have been observed between these three (IV) chains and between the three (IV) chains, suggesting a complex genetic system governing the synthesis of these proteins. Moreover, a few amino acid substitutions occur at positions involved in contacts between chains, which suggests that differences in oxygen affinity may exist between these various type IV hemoglobins. Type I hemoglobin is less complex because it contains one type of chain and two chains; the latter two differ in numerous positions, suggesting duplications of the (I)-globin gene. The and chains of type I hemoglobin differ considerably from the and chains of type IV hemoglobin, indicating the existence of (I)- and (I)-globin genes separate from the (IV)- and (IV)- globin genes.This study was supported in part by the Yugoslav-American Joint Funds, pp 812 (to G.D.E.), and by United States Public Health Service Research Grant HLB-05168 (to T.H.J.H.). 相似文献

Summary We tested the hypothesis that acute restraint stress results in ultrastructural evidence for enhanced release of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (-MSH) and -endorphin from the intermediate lobe (IL) of the rat pituitary. Measurements of plasma -MSH-and -endorphin-immunoreactivity (ir) were used to confirm ultrastructural findings. Plasma -MSH-ir was elevated after 20 and 30 min of restraint while plasma -endorphin-ir peaked 10 min after the onset of restraint. Ultrastructural analysis revealed a decrease in the content of secretory granules within IL cells of stressed rats. Analysis of Golgi-related immature secretory granules in IL cells indicated that new peptide synthesis was not enhanced after 30 min of restraint. These results confirm previous studies showing and elevation of plasma -endorphin and -MSH-ir during acute restraint. Furthermore, these results indicate that quantitative analysis at the ultrastructural level can be used to assess peptide release from IL secretory cells during stress. 相似文献

Hybridizations ofElymus nutans andE. jacquemontii were carried out with one species ofPseudoroegneria (S genome), and 20Elymus species, each containing either of the SH, SY, SYH, or SYW genomes. Chromosome configurations were analysed at metaphase I of the two target taxa and their interspecific hybrids. It is concluded that (i)E. nutans is an allohexaploid containing the SYH genomes, andE. jacquemontii is an allotetraploid having the SY genomes; (ii) the genomic affinity is associated with the geographic distance between the species studied; (iii) minor genomic structural rearrangements have occurred within the hexaploid taxon ofE. nutans. 相似文献

Summary The neurohypophysis of foetal macaque monkeys has been studied by optical and electron microscopy. Abundant elementary neurosecretory granules are present in the infundibular process by the middle third of gestation. Most of these are of variable electron density, and surrounded by a membrane larger than the granule, so that they appear haloed. A few fibres contain membrane-bounded electron-dense granules which show no halo. Inclusions of synaptic vesicle size are rare. The infundibular stem contains a few fibres with typical inclusions smaller than 1000 Å in diameter; the latter resemble inclusions in fibres of the median eminence.Dedicated to Professor W. Bargmann on his 60th birthday. 相似文献

Immunohistochemical localization of lutropin (LH) and follitropin (FSH) in the pituitary gland of the frog Rana japonica was studied by the peroxidase-anti-peroxidase method and the two-face, double-labeling method with different-sized gold particles at the light-and electron-microscopic levels, respectively, using monoclonal antibodies against bullfrog LH and FSH. Light-microscopic immunohistochemistry indicated that approximately 66.0% of all the gonadotrophs in the pituitary contained both LH and FSH, whereas 33.4% of gonadotrophs contained only LH, and 0.6% contained only FSH. The staining intensity of LH and FSH varied from cell to cell. The gonadotrophs were classified into four types (Types I–IV) in terms of their ultrastructural and immunolabeling characteristics. Moreover, several secretory granule types were recognized according to differences in their shape and electron density. In all the cell types, both LH and FSH were often seen in the same secretory granules, but the proportion of granules bearing both hormones ranged from 5.5% in Type I to 32.7% in Type IV. Most secretory granules in Types I and II were immunolabeled with LH alone, whereas a small number of granules were immunolabeled with FSH alone. More immunolabeled FSH granules were present in Types III and IV than in Types I and II. 相似文献

Summary In the cerebral (= supraesophageal, suprapharyngeal) ganglion of the earthworm, a number of neurosecretory Gomori-positive perikarya are bipolar; others are unipolar, or multipolar. Some of the neurosecretory cell processes project centrally into a fibrous zone; peripheral processes enter small nerves which leave the dorsocaudal aspect of the ganglion.In the central fibrous zone, the neurosecretory fibers form varicose Gomoripositive terminals. Here, also zinc-iodine-osmium (ZIO)-positive fibers and monoamine fluorescent fibers are found. With the electron microscope, nerve terminals containing synaptic vesicles and either large neurosecretory peptidergic granular vesicles (diameter more than 1500 Å), or smaller granular vesicles (diameter about 1300 Å, or 900 Å) are observed. These axon endings mainly form axo-dendritic synapses. Peptidergic profiles are both pre- and postsynaptic. Some of the extraganglionic peptidergic fibers appear to terminate around vessels, but most of them form terminals on the visceral muscle cells which surround the ganglion.We think that the central neurosecretory processes communicate with the fibers of the synaptic zone of the ganglion. The peripheral neurosecretory peptidergic fibers are supposed to form a primitive neurohemal area and/or to function as vasomotor nerves. The fibers innervating the visceral muscle cells may represent vegetative nerves. 相似文献

The effects of branching and substitution of branches by sialic acid and fucose on the interaction ofN-linked glycopeptides and related oligosaccharides with immobilizedPhaseolus vulgaris leukoagglutinating lectin (L-PHA) were examined. Asialo bi-, tri-and tetra-antennary glycans were all retarded but to different extents on a long column of L-PHA-agarose. Asialo tri- and tetra-antennary glycans containing the pentasaccharide unit Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2[Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6]Man were strongly retarded, whereas asialo bi- and tri-antennary glycans lacking the Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6 branch were only weakly retarded. In all instances the interaction with the lectin was completely abolished when either (2–6)-linkedN-acetylneuraminic acid or (1–3)-linked fucose was present at the galactose orN-acetylglucosamine residue of the Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6Man1-6 branch, respectively. The same substitutions on the Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6Man1-6 branch decreased but did not abolish the affinity of the lectin for the glycans. The presence of NeuAc2-6 and Fuc1-3 on the other two branches did not interfere with the binding of the glycans to L-PHA. Furthermore, it appeared that the presence of the Man1-4GlcNAc unit is requried for interaction with the lectin. In order to obtain reliable information on the relative occurrence of tri- and tetra-antennary glycopeptides, this study shows that it is essential to desialylate and to defucosylate the glycans prior to application to L-PHA-agarose.Abbreviations L-PHA

Summary A study of the morphology of Herring bodies of the posterior pituitary lobe of rats treated with colchicine and/or exposed to low temperatures has been performed. After treatment with colchicine (20 g in distilled water injected intracisternally) a predominance of Herring bodies with a large number of small synaptic-like vesicles surrounded by neurosecretory granules is found. Exposures to low temperature (4–6° C) result in an increase in the neurosecretory material and the Herring bodies show many neurosecretory granules of different densities. After treatment with colchicine and subsequent exposure to low temperatures, the Herring bodies are characterized by having a great number of autophagic bodies which become more numerous as the length of the exposure is increased; later autophagic vacuoles and lamellar bodies become evident. 相似文献

Summary The principal pancreatic islets of the teleost Scorpaena scropha are found ultrastructurally to contain four different kinds of parenchymal cells, viz.
1-(= D),
2-, -and agranular cells. The -cells show considerable variations in the shape of the secretory granules. A peculiar feature is that many of these granules are composed of fibrillar subunits, often in parallel arrangement. All -granules are surrounded by membranes and between the membrane and the granule core there is a moderately wide electron lucent space. The electron density of the cytoplasm in the -cells varies somewhat. The
2-cells possess typical secretory granules with an electron dense core and a closely applied membrane. The secretory granules in the
1-cells show also a closely applied membrane but a less dense core. Also in the -cells the electron opacity of the cytoplasm varies. The agranular cells are mainly characterized by low cytoplasmic electron density, narrow cisterns of endoplasmic reticulum and sometimes a laminated Golgi complex. Small immature secretory granules are occasionally seen in the cytoplasm of these cells. The significance of the fibrillar -granules remains obscure.This work was supported by grants from the Nordic Insulin Fund, the Town of Umeå, the Swedish Medical Research Council (Project No. B69-12X-718-04A), and by a postdoctoral fellowship from the United States Public Health Service. 相似文献

Summary In the median eminence of the rat axons of the supraoptic-paraventricular-hypophyseal tract with elementary neurosecretory granules (150–200 m) traverse the internal zone. Terminals containing dense core vesicles 60–120 m in diameter end on the portal capillaries of the median eminence. A unique organisation of the primary portal capillaries is shown. Endothelial cells have many fenestrae. The pericapillary space has numerous extensions all of which represent a special zone around the endothelial tube. The fine structural organisation and function of the neurovascular contacts in the median eminence are discussed. 相似文献

Zusammenfassung Bei der normalen weißen Ratte verhält sich die Zona externa des Infundibulum im Gegensatz zur Zona interna infundibuligomorinegativ.Am 7. Tag nach beidseitiger Adrenalektomie treten in der Zona externa gomoripositive Substanzen auf, deren Menge über den 14. Tag nach der Operation hinaus zunimmt.Im supraoptico-hypophysären System ergibt die quantitative Messung eine Entleerung des neurosekretorischen Materials am 3. Tage nach beidseitiger Adrenalektomie. Im Verlauf von 14 Tagen nach dem operativen Eingriff füllt sich das neurosekretorische System wieder bis zu den beim Normaltier ermittelten Werten auf.Die gomoripositiven Granula in der Zona externa inf. sind möglicherweise das morphologische Äquivalent eines Corticotropin-releasing factors.
On quantitative changes of Gomori-positive substances in the median eminence and neural lobe of the rat hypophysis after bilateral adrenalectomy
Summary In the normal albino rat, the external layer of the median eminence shows a Gomori-negative histochemical reaction as opposed to the internal layer.On the 7th day after bilateral adrenalectomy, Gomori-positive substances appear in the external layer, their amount increasing up to and beyond the 14th day p.o.In the supraoptico-hypophyseal system, quantitative measurements show a depletion of the neurosecretory substance on the 3rd day following bilateral adrenalectomy. This loss of neurosecretory material is restored during the course of 14 days p.o., the amount then corresponding to that found in the normal rat.It is conceivable that the Gomori-positive granules in the outer layer of the median eminence are the morphological equivalent of a CRF.相似文献

The magnitude of the proton motive force (p) and its constituents, the electrical () and chemical potential (-ZpH), were established for chemostat cultures of a protease-producing, relaxed (rel
–) variant and a not protease-producing, stringent (rel
+) variant of an industrial strain ofBacillus licheniformis (respectively referred to as the A- and the B-type). For both types, an inverse relation of p with the specific growth rate was found. The calculated intracellular pH (pHin) was not constant but inversely related to . This change in pHin might be related to regulatory functions of metabolism but a regulatory role for pHin itself could not be envisaged. Measurement of the adenylate energy charge (EC) showed a direct relation with for glucose-limited chemostat cultures; in nitrogen-limited chemostat cultures, the EC showed an approximately constant value at low and an increased value at higher . For both limitations, the ATP/ADP ratio was directly related to .The phosphorylation potential (G'p) was invariant with . From the values for G'p and p, a variable H+/ATP-stoichiometry was inferred: H+/ATP=1.83+0.52µ, so that at a given H+/O-ratio of four (4), the apparent P/O-ratio (inferred from regression analysis) showed a decline of 2.16 to 1.87 for =0 to max (we discuss how more than half of this decline will be independent of any change in internal cell-volume). We propose that the constancy of G'p and the decrease in the efficiency of energy-conservation (P/O-value) with increasing are a way in which the cells try to cope with an apparent less than perfect coordination between anabolism and catabolism to keep up the highest possible with a minimum loss of growth-efficiency. Protease production in nitrogen-limited cultures as compared to glucose-limited cultures, and the difference between the A- and B-type, could not be explained by a different energy-status of the cells.Abbreviations CCCP

Summary The present ultrastructural study deals with the lateral cephalic nerve plexus of Sphaeroma serratum, a neurohemal organ joined to the Y organ (ecdysial gland). This plexus acts as a storage centre for neurosecretory products from two sources: the two autochtonous cells (plexus cells) within the plexus itself, and the neurosecretory cells in various parts of the central nervous system, particulary the mandibular ganglion (A-cells).In prepuberal animals, plexus cells and subesophageal A-cells produce neurosecretory granules of two types measuring 1550±50Å and 1570±40Å respectively. Five categories of axon terminals were distinguished in the plexus. The granules found in two of these terminal types are believed to come from the plexus cells and from the mandibular ganglion A-cells.Cessation of production of neurosecretory granules in these A cells and plexus cells was observed in puberal animals, in the plexus with concomitant depletion and disappearance of different granule categories. The first axon terminals affected by this process are the two categories containing granules originating in the plexus and mandibular ganglion A-cells. Degeneration of the ecdysial gland in male Sphaeroma serratum might be connected with the cessation of granule formation in these two types of cell.
Résumé Chez Sphaeroma serratum, la mue de puberté est suivie d'une dégénérescence de l'organe Y (glands de mue). Le plexus nerveux céphalique latéral, organe neurohémal accolé à cette glande a été l'objet de la présente étude ultrastructurale. Cet organe représente un centre de stockage de neurosécrétions qui proviennent d'une part, de deux cellules autochtones (cellules plexales) situées au sein même de ce plexus, d'autre part, de cellules neurosécrétrices situées dans le ganglion mandibulaire (cellules de type A).Chez les individus pubères, les cellules plexales et les cellules A du ganglion sous-oesophagien synthétisent des granules de neurosécrétion dont la taille est respectivement 1550±50Å et 1570±40Å. Il a été reconnu au sein du plexus 5 catégories de terminaisons dont les granules proviendraient pour deux d'entre elles des cellules plexales et des cellules A du ganglion mandibulaire. Chez les animaux pubères on observe un arrêt de la synthèse des granules de neurosécrétion au sein des cellules plexales et des cellules A du ganglion mandibulaire. Simultanément on enregistre dans le plexus la raréfaction puis la disparition des divers types de granules. Ce processus atteint en premier les terminaisons correspondant aux cellules plexales et aux cellules A du ganglion mandibulaire. La dégénérescence de la glande de mue chez les mâles pourrait être en relation avec l'arrêt de synthèse de ces cellules.相似文献

Summary Posterior pituitary glands from normal rats, and rats which had been deprived of water for varying periods, were examined by the freeze-fracture method. This technique reveals large areas of the nerve cell membrane. Images consistent with exocytosis as the mechanism of release of the neurohypophysial hormones were observed. These modifications were most numerous after the rat had been starved of water for 2 days.In normal rats, the large number of neurosecretory granules within the nerve fibres caused a bulging of the nerve cell membrane. The bulges disappeared 2 days after removal of drinking water. Regions of the membrane displaying bulges were characterised by the absence of the typical membrane-associated particles.It is postulated that the close proximity of the neurosecretory granules to the nerve cell membrane may result in rapid fusion of the neurosecretory granules on stimulation of the gland. The change in properties of the nerve cell membrane overlying the neurosecretory granules, as suggested by the loss of membrane-associated particles, may represent a change in the structure of the membrane to a form which is more favourable for fusion.This work was supported in part by a grant from the New Zealand Medical Research Council. 相似文献
