An SEM study of the surface morphology of the major stages of mature and developing teeth of the leopard frog was made using anorganic preparations of the teeth and jaws. After initial development, the crown area changed little during subsequent tooth eruption, ankylosis and maturation. The thin enamel covering extended further down the shaft than expected. After ankylosis, the surfaces of the tooth continued to mature. The unmineralized gap between the crown and the pedestal, which is prominent in most amphibians, gradually filled in as the ankylosed tooth aged. The upper portion of the pedestal initially formed a dentine surface which was globular in appearance due to partial calcification of the surface collagen fibres but became smooth with uniformly calcified fibres as the ankylosed tooth matured. The lower portion of the pedestal was more variable and there was a gradual transition of dentine into a more cellular, bone-like tissue which contained lacunae and larger fibre bundles. This bone-like tissue was very distinct in surface morphology from the bone of the adjacent jaw, and as the tooth matured it changed from a coarse, woven appearance to one more like lamellar bone. Resorption bays were present in both the dentine and bony areas of teeth which were being shed. During development, the pedestal, which attaches the tooth to the jaw, formed as a separate calcification site and did not form a complete ring until fusion of its buccal surface with that of the overlying crown. A bony buccal lip formed early as part of the pedestal. 相似文献

Summary Distribution of cholinesterase-containing nerve fibres was studied in 15 human dental pulps by the thiocholine method. Falk's fluorescent method was used to demonstrate catecholamines (8 dental pulps).Cholinesterases were localized partly in the subodontoblastic plexus sending out fine branches towards odontoblasts, and partly in the nerve fibres attached to the blood vessel walls. These fibres in contrast to those of the subodontoblastic plexus were finer and showed fine varicosities.Monoaminergic terminals were localized mainly along blood vessel walls, however, some fibres having no relation to the blood vessels were also found.Cholinesterase-containing nerve fibres in the periphery of the pulp are considered to be sensitive nerve fibres originating from n.V. Distribution of cholinesterase-containing nerve fibres and monoaminergic terminals along the blood vessel walls indicates that the blood vessels in the human dental pulp might be under both parasympathetic and sympathetic control. 相似文献

Summary The distribution of collagen type III throughout the pulp tissue from human developing tooth was studied using specific antibodies, immunofluorescence as well as immuno-peroxidase labelling for electron microscopy.Our results indicate that type III and type I collagen are present in the pulp. The staining intensity seems to correlate with the relatively high proportions of type III collagen biochemically found in pulp. In addition, type III collagen and reticulin fibres are similarly distributed, except that the Von Korff fibres were never detected with anti-type III collagen antibodies. Correspondingly, at the ultrastructural level, type III collagen appears as fine, branched filaments or electron dense material distributed throughout the tissue and particularly in close association with the plasma membrane of pulp fibroblasts. In contrast, type I collagen appears as typical coarse cross banded fibres. 相似文献

Summary The endoneurial collagen sheath around teased nerve fibres following crush injury was studied by scanning electron microscopy and compared with uninjured sciatic nerve fibres and with fibres from the dystonic mutant mouse. Following crush injury the endoneurial collagen became more abundant than seen in untreated nerve fibres and formed large, separate and longitudinally oriented bundles. However, by four weeks post injury the sheath regained a normal external appearance. Mutant nerve fibres were also associated with more than the usual amount of collagen, but the sheaths were more disorganised, with a marked disorientation and irregular aggregation of collagen, and these abnormalities were not confined to obviously degenerating or demyelinated regions of the fibres. The dystonic abnormalities of the endoneurial sheath may be important in the mechanism of the neuropathy.Medical Research Council, Radiobiology Unit, Harwell, Didcot, Oxon, OX11 ORD 相似文献

An interstitial collagenase was purified from the explant medium of bovine dental pulp and was shown to degrade collagens I and III but not IV and V. The enzyme halted cleft initiation in the epithelium of 12-day mouse embryonic submandibular glands in vitro, indicating the active involvement of interstitial collagens in the branching morphogenesis. Transmission electron microscopic observation of the intact 12-day gland without any clefts showed the scattered localization of a few collagen fibrils at the epithelial-mesenchymal interface of the bulb and also revealed the presence of numerous microfibrils around the stalk. Collagen bundles were regularly seen close to the wavy basal lamina at the bottom of clefts of the intact 13-day gland and 12-day gland cultured for 17 h under normal conditions. Mesenchymal cells were found in the clefts together with the frequent localization of peripheral nerve fibres and capillary endothelial cells. The collagen bundles were more often observed in the 12-day gland cultured in the presence of bovine dental pulp collagenase inhibitor, which had been shown to enhance cleft formation. In contrast, collagen fibrils were rarely found at the epithelial-mesenchymal interface of the 12-day gland cultured in the presence of Clostridial or bovine dental pulp collagenase. The findings indicated that the formation of interstitial collagen bundles is essential to form clefts in the epithelium both in vivo and in vitro. 相似文献

Summary The organization of collagen fibrils in the rat sciatic nerve was studied by scanning electron microscopy after digestion of cellular elements by sodium hydroxide treatment, and by conventional transmission electron microscopy. The epineurium consisted mainly of thick bundles of collagen fibrils measuring about 10–20 m in width; they were wavy and ran slightly obliquely to the nerve axis. Between these collagen bundles, a very coarse meshwork of randomly oriented collagen fibrils was present. In the perineurium, collagen fibrils occupied the interspaces between the concentrically arranged perineurial cells; in each interspace, they formed a sheet of characteristic lacework elaborately interwoven by thin (about 3 m or less in width) bundles of collagen fibrils. In the subperineurial region, there was a distinct sheet of densely woven collagen fibrils between the perineurium and underlying endoneurial fibroblasts. In the endoneurium, collagen fibrils surrounded individual nerve fibers in two layers as scaffolds: the inner layer was made up of a delicate meshwork of very fine collagen fibrils, and the outer one consisted of longitudinally oriented bundles of about 1–3 m in width. The collagen fibril arrangement described above may protect the nerve fibers against external forces. 相似文献

The different types of fibres of the collagenous and elastic systems can be demonstrated specifically in tissue sections by comparing the typical ultrastructural picture of each of the fibre types with studies using selective staining techniques for light microscopy. A practicalmodus operandi, which includes the recommended staining procedures and interpretation of the results, is presented. Micrographs and tables are provided to summarize the differential procedures. Reticulin fibres display a distinct argyrophilia when studied by means of silver impregnation techniques, and show up as a thin meshwork of weakly birefringent, greenish fibres when examined with the aid of the Picrosirius-polarization method. In addition, electron-microscopic studies showed that reticulin fibres are composed of a small number of thin collagen fibrils, contrasting with the very many thicker fibrils that could be localized ultrastructurally to the sites where non-argyrophilic, coarse collagen fibres had been characterized by the histochemical methods used. The three different fibre types of the elastic system belong to a continuous series: oxytalan—elaunin—elastic (all of the fibre types comprising collections of microfibrils with, in the given sequence, increasing amounts of elastin). The three distinct types of elastic system fibres have different staining characteristics and ultrastructural patterns. Ultrastructurally, a characteristic elastic fibre consists of two morphologically different components: a centrally located solid cylinder of amorphous and homogeneous elastin surrounded by tubular microfibrils. An oxytalan fibre is composed of a bundle of microfibrils, identical to the elastic fibre microfibrils, without amorphous material. In elaunin fibres, dispersed amorphous material (elastin) is intermingled among the microfibrils. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to examine the expression of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) activity in human dental pulps and determine whether there are changes of the activity in chronically inflamed pulp tissue. Nineteen pulps with clinical diagnosis of chronic pulpitis were collected during endodontic treatment. The healthy controls were obtained from teeth extracted for orthodontic therapy. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by histological analysis. Healthy pulps showed stratified odontoblasts in peripheral parts, while in central area there was normal connective tissue. Chronically inflamed pulps showed less expressed stratification of odontoblasts and infiltration of lymphocytes, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, plasma cells and mastocytes. NADPH-d granular reactivity was assessed semi quantitatively under the light microscope by a single observer and scored on an intensity scale from negative reaction to very strong reaction. In healthy human pulps, NADPH-d activity was strong to very strong in odontoblastic layer. Endothelial cells and Schwann cells showed strong NADPH-d reactivity, while the other parts of central area were weakly positive. Similar distribution of reactivity was expressed also in chronically inflamed pulp; moderate to strong reaction was observed in stromal area as result of positive reaction in inflammatory cells and endothelial cells of abundant newly formed capillaries. 相似文献

The biceps femoris muscle was surgically incised and sutured in 10 clinically healthy mongrel dogs, aged 1-2 yr and weighing 10-15 kg. The surgical wounds of 5 dogs were exposed to shortwave diathermy for 5 min daily for 7 days, starting a day after the creation of trauma. The remaining 5 dogs served as control. After 15 days of healing, the tissues from biceps femoris muscle were collected and subjected to histomorphological and histochemical examination. Mature collagen bundles were seen at healing site in diathermy treated animals while there were immature collagen fibres and more number of fibroblasts in control animals. Normal muscle fibres could be seen on either side of the healing tissue in treated animals whereas in control animals, atrophied and necrosed muscle fibres were encountered. The neutral and acid mucopolysaccharides, lipid droplets in the intermyofibrillar area and the activity of alkaline phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase at the healing site was better in treated as compared to controls. 相似文献

Summary The ultrastructure of the epithelial basement membrane and membrane precursor was studied in rat submandibular rudiment and a model system of the reconstructed basement membrane, by transmission electron microscopy following alcian blue staining. Directly beneath the epithelial plasma membrane, a meshwork layer was found to consist of anastomosing thin fibers arranged as a three-dimensional meshwork (100–400 nm in thickness). Straight strands (5–10 nm in diameter) could sometimes be seen to pass through the meshwork. Adjacent to this layer, a coarse network composed of threads (20–40 nm in diameter) connected the meshwork layer with collagen fibers of the underlying connective tissue. The earliest precursors recognized in the reconstruction-model system were part of the fine-meshwork structure, and showed this structure to be a fundamental component of the basement membrane. 相似文献

The presence and ultrastructural features of reticulum cells and macrophages were studied in the spleen of the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula. Three morphologically distinguishable regions of the spleen were identified: the white pulp, the red pulp and the ellipsoids. In all three, the splenic parenchyma was a meshwork supported by reticulum cells and fibres. Reticulum cells in both the white and the red pulp are irregular elements, the processes of which are joined by cell junctions and embrace developing reticular fibres. The ellipsoids of the dogfish spleen are terminal branches of the splenic arteries of the white pulp, with a sheath consisting of reticulum cells, reticular fibres, ground substance, macrophages and occasional lymphocytes. Isolated melanomacrophages also occur in the ellipsoid walls as well as in the red pulp. In both the white and the red pulp phagocytic reticulum cells, and macrophages appear frequently forming cell associations with surrounding blood cells, mainly lymphocytes. The functional significance of the ellipsoids and the cell-cell clusters of the white and the red pulp is discussed in relation to the immune capacities demonstrated in elasmobranchs. 相似文献

Changes in stem anatomy with radial position and height were studied for the arborescent palms Welfia georgii, Iriartea gigantea, Socratea durissima, Euterpe macrospadix, Prestoea decurrens, and Cryosophila albida. Vascular bundles are concentrated toward the stem periphery and peripheral bundles contain more fibers than central bundles. Expansion and cell wall thickening of fibers within vascular bundles continues throughout the life of a palm, even in the oldest tissue. Within individual vascular bundles, the fibers nearest the phloem expand first and fiber cell walls become heavily thickened. A front of expanding fibers moves outward from the phloem until all fibers within a vascular bundle are fully expanded and have thick cell walls. Peripheral vascular bundles differentiate first and inner bundles later. In the stem beneath the crown, vascular bundles and ground tissue cells show little or no size increase, but marked cell wall thickening during development for Welfia georgii. Beneath the crown, diameters of peripheral vascular bundles increase more than twofold for Iriartea gigantea, while diameters of central bundles do not increase. In Iriartea stems, ground tissue cells at the periphery elongate to accommodate expanding vascular bundles and cell walls become thickened to a lesser degree than in fibers; central ground tissue cells elongate markedly, but cell walls do not become thickened; and large lacunae form between central parenchyma cells. For Iriartea, Socratea, and Euterpe, sustained cell expansion results in limited, but significant increases in stem diameter. For all species, sustained cell wall thickening results in dramatic increases in stem stiffness and strength. 相似文献

Summary A detailed study of the origin and distribution of sympathetic fibres in the distal colon of the guinea-pig has been made using the fluorescent histochemical method for localizing catecholamines. The extrinsic adrenergic fibres of the colonie sympathetic nerves follow the inferior mesenteric artery and its branches to the colon. Some of the extrinsic adrenergic fibres are associated with the parasympathetic fibres of the pelvic nerves near the colon. Complete adrenergic denervation follows the removal of the inferior mesenteric ganglion or the destruction of the nerves running with the inferior mesenteric artery.No fluorescent fibres, other than those associated with blood vessels, were observed in air-dried stretch preparations of the isolated longitudinal muscle. However, a substantial number of varicose, terminal fibres, not associated with blood vessels, were observed in the circular muscle. Some varicose fibres, apart from those associated with ganglion cells, were observed in the myenteric plexus. These fibres were seen in the bundles of nerves running between the nodes of the plexus and also as single fibres which branched from the plexus to end in areas free of ganglion cells.Three plexuses of adrenergic nerve fibres have been distinguished in the submucosa: a dense plexus of terminal fibres innervating both the veins and arteries; a plexus consisting of innervated nodes of ganglion cells, connected by bundles of fluorescent and non-fluorescent nerves; and a plexus of varicose and non-varicose fibres, which is not associated with ganglion cells. Some groups of ganglion cells in the submucosa were without adrenergic innervation.A plexus of varicose fibres forms a meshwork in the lamina propria of the mucosa. The muscularis mucosae is sparsely innervated. Most of the blood vessels in the mucosa are not associated with adrenergic fibres. 相似文献

The effect of xylanase on lignocellulosic components during the bleaching of wood pulps 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
HPLC, SEM and XRD techniques have been proposed as methods for ascertaining the changes occurring in polysaccharides (cellulose and xylans) and fibres during the xylanase bleaching processes. TCF and ECF bleached pulps with and without enzyme pretreatment were analysed. The ratio of carbohydrates present in the pulp, observation of changes occurring in the surface of the fibres and the crystallinity and accessibility of the bleached fibres were determinated. These characteristics have been related with pulp properties. Xylan content decreased when pulp was bleached. Xylanase treatment substantially reduced the xylose content present in pulp, measured by HPLC after the hydrolysis method of the sample. Morphological changes in the fibres occurred when the enzymatic treatment was applied. Bleaching increased the crystallinity of the pulp and enzyme pretreatment also affected the crystallinity of cellulose fibres 相似文献

Investigation of lignin-carbohydrate complexes in kraft pulps by selective enzymatic treatments 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The occurrence of covalent bonds between residual lignin and polysaccharides in birch and pine kraft pulps was investigated
by specific enzymatic treatments. Pure enzymes degrading cellulose, xylan and mannan were used both separately and in combination.
Comparison of the molar masses of polysaccharides and lignin in the orginal pulps and in the residual pulps after enzymatic
treatments showed that residual lignin in birch kraft pulp is linked at least to xylan. A minor portion may also be linked
to cellulose. In pine kraft pulp some of the residual lignin appears to be linked to cellulose, glucomannan and xylan. The
linkages between lignin and cellulose and hemicelluloses may be either native or formed during pulp processing. The results
also provided new information on the synergistic action of cellulose- and hemicellulose-degrading enzymes on pulp fibres.
The synergism appears to be mainly due to the structure of the pulp fibres, with different layers of cellulose sheets, hemicelluloses
and lignin. On the other hand the results also provided information about fibre structure. The degradation of xylan clearly
enhanced the action of enzymes on cellulose, suggesting that xylan partially covers the cellulose. A similar phenomenon was
not observed in the simultaneous hydrolysis of glucomannan and cellulose. However, the results suggest that glucomannan does
interact with cellulose, possibly by non-covalent linkages.

The distribution of type I, III and V collagens in the monkey spleen was examined by indirect immunofluorescent microscopy and immunoelectron microscopy, and compared with that of reticular fibers revealed by a silver impregnation method. Type I collagen was localized on reticular fibers in the white pulps and on coarse reticular fibers in the splenic cords. Type III collagen was localized on the reticular fibers in the white pulps, and on the coarse reticular fibers and a limited number of fine reticular fibers, in the splenic cords. The anti-type V collagen antibody reacted with annular reticular fibers around the splenic sinuses, as well as with the reticular fibers in the white pulps and with the coarse and fine reticular fibers in the splenic cords. Thus, the distribution pattern of fibers that reacted with the anti-type V collagen antibody was very similar to that of the reticular fibers revealed by the silver impregnation method. Electron-microscopically, the fine reticular fibers in the splenic cords were composed of collagen fibrils, 30-50 nm in diameter, and amorphous substances. They were covered by reticular cell processes. By immunoperoxidase labeling with the anti-type V collagen antibody, electron-dense reaction products were found over the collagen fibrils with a banding pattern. These results indicate that type V collagen is an indispensable component of the reticular fibers. 相似文献

The concentrations of NaB3H4-reducible collagen cross-links were determined at the time when collagen fibres and bundles are observed in electron micrographs of connective tissue developing around the implanted Ivalon sponge in adult male rats. The highest radioactivity occurs with hydroxylysinonoreleucine and histidinohydroxymerodesmosine, and the lowest with lysinonorleucine, the reducible amounts of these cross-links remaining relatively constant as fibres and bundles appear. On the other hand, dihydroxylysinonorleucine amounts are low during the initial stages of connective-tissue formation and rise sharply as collagen fibres and bundles develop and collagen matures, as shown by increased resistance of insoluble collagen to digestion with bacterial collagenase. The bulk of hydroxylysinonorleucine and dihydroxylysinonorleucine is glycosylated, the former with galactosyl or glucosylgalactosyl residues and the latter with glucosylgalactosyl residues. The changing relationships between the amounts of 3H-labelled hydroxylysinonorleucine, glucosylgalactosyldihydroxylysinonorleucine and non-glycosylated dihydroxylysinonorleucine as fibres and bundles appear suggest three post-translational steps involving lysyl-derived cross-links in the organization of collagen into fibres and bundles. 相似文献
