Two morphologically distinct blood cell-types, the granulocyte and hyalinocyte, are found in the hemolymph circulation of the marine prosobranch Cerithidea californica. Granulocytes, measuring 12.7 µ (9.0–15.0 µ) in diameter, possess well-defined ectoplasmic and endoplasmic regions of the cytoplasm, granules of moderate to heavy electron density, tubular rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), short vesicles of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER), and a large cytoplasm to nucleus ratio. Two morphological variants of this cell-type are distinguished depending upon the presence or absence of dense granules or RER. Hyalinocytes, measuring 5.3 µ (4.0–8.0 µ) in diameter, are distinguished from gran ulocytes by possessing a smaller cytoplasm to nucleus ratio and a general lack of dense cytoplasmic granules and SER. 相似文献

Calf lungs were fixed with glutaraldehyde and examined by scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) electron microscopy to compare the ultrastructure of Clara cells in terminal bronchioles of neonatal calves and older cattle. In the neonatal calf, SEM revealed numerous smooth-surfaced Clara cells protruding above a similar number of ciliated cells, whereas in older animals the surface of Clara cells was lobulated. Thin sections examined by TEM revealed numerous cuboidal to columnar Clara cells with indented nuclei and a pale cytoplasm filled with faintly granular glycogen in the neonatal calf. Some cells were characterized by apical dense and/or pale membrane-bound granules or secretory droplets. Many cells had an apical tubular network of cisternae that were partly smooth and partly decorated with ribosomes. Ultrastructural comparison of Clara cells in a 2-day-old calf with those of 14- and 19-day-old, 4- and 5. 5-month-old, and 3.5-year-old cattle revealed a striking reduction in the amount of glycogen per cell after 14 days. The number of cells with apical granules was small at all ages, and the density of the secretory granules varied greatly in different cells. A variable amount of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) was present but was less prominent than cisternae of ribosomal endoplasmic reticulum (RER). In older cattle, the limited amount of SER compared to the RER and secretory granules suggests that bovine Clara cells are more likely to be secretory than detoxifying. 相似文献

The fine structure of the hemocytes and nephrocytes in Argas (Persicargas) arboreus is described and compared with that of similar cells in other tick species and insects. The hemocytes are of three types: prohemocytes, with a relatively undifferentiated cytoplasm lacking granular inclusions and probably serving as progenitors of the other hemolymph cell types; plasmatocytes, containing abundant mitochondria, cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), and free ribosomes, as well as some small granular inclusions; granulocytes, the predominant cell type in the hemolymph, containing numerous granules of variable electron density and maturity, and pseudopodia-like processes on the cell surface. Plasmatocytes and granulocytes are phagocytic and possibly also have other functions in the tick body. Cells with intermediate features appear to be in a stage of transition from plasmatocyte to granulocyte. Nephrocytes contain vacuoles enclosing fibrillar material, some electrondense granules, and moderate amounts of the active organelles—mitochondria, RER, and ribosomes. The nephrocyte is surrounded by a basal lamina and its plasma membrane infolds to form many deep invaginations coated by a fine fibrillar material. Openings to these invaginations are closed by membranous diaphragms. Coated tubular elements connect the surface invaginations with large coated vesicles, which appear to be specialized for internalization of proteins from the hemolymph. The dense granules may represent an advanced stage of condensation of ingested protein and thus may be lysosomal residual bodies, or they may develop by accumulation of secretory products. 相似文献

Morphometric and biochemical techniques were used to analyze hepatic glycogen, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondrial matrix granules in rats treated with compound 48/80 to induce an anaphylactic-like state of shock. Thirty minutes after insult there was a significant decrease in glycogen and mitochondrial matrix granules, an increase in rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), and no change in smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). Less glycogen in experimental rats substantiated a previously described glycogenolytic response to compound 48/80. The decrease in matrix granules implies a loss and/or shift in intramitochondrial calcium as occurs in epinephrine-induced glycogenolysis in the rat. Since other glycogenolytic agents, e.g. glucagon, and starvation stimulate an increase in SER presumably from RER, the present morphological data suggest the increase in RER may precede proliferation of SER from RER. 相似文献

Electron microscopy showed no holoferritin in either the cytosol or the vacuolar system of hemocytes (granulocytes) from normal Calpodes ethlius larvae. This does not mean that ferritin is normally absent from hemocytes, since apoferritin lacks contrast and would not be observed. In vitro iron in glycerol treatment of hemocytes from normal larvae caused holoferritin cores to be visible in the rough endoplasmic reticulum, suggesting that hemocytes from normal larvae contain apoferritin. Hemocytes are therefore like the fat body, and could also be a source of hemolymph ferritin. After loading the hemolymph with iron in vivo, many holoferritin cores were resolvable in the vacuolar system of some hemocytes. Ferritin synthesis can therefore be induced by elevated hemolymph iron levels. Iron loading of epidermis and heart showed similar ferritin cores but more rarely. In all tissues they occurred in the secretory pathway and not in the cytosol. 相似文献

Ultrastructural analyses revealed the presence of six hemocyte types in the hemolymph of Panstrongylus megistus, partially confirming our previous results obtained through light microscopy. Prohemocytes: small, round hemocytes with a thin cytoplasm layer, especially rich in free ribosomes and poor in membranous systems. Plasmatocytes: polymorphic cells, whose cytoplasm contains many lysosomes and a well developed rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). They are extremely phagocytic. Sometimes, they show a large vacuolation. Granulocytes: granular hemocytes whose granules show different degrees of electrodensity. Most of them, have an internal structuration. Coagulocytes: oval or elongated hemocytes, which show pronounced perinuclear cisternae as normally observed in coagulocytes. The cytoplasm is usually electrodense, poor in membranous systems and contains many labile granules. Oenocytoids: large and very stable hemocytes, whose homogeneous cytoplasm is rich in loose ribosomes and poor in membranous systems. Adipohemocytes: large cells, containing several characteristic lipid droplets. The cytoplasm is also rich in glycogen, RER and large mitochondria. The total and differential hemocyte count (THC and DHC) were also calculated for this reduviid. THC increases from 2,900 hemocytes/mm3 of hemolymph in the 4th instar to 4,350 in the 5th and then, decreases to 1,950 in the adults. Plasmatocytes and coagulocytes are the predominant hemocyte types. 相似文献

Summary Indirect immunoflorescence and PAP techniques for light microscopy as well as the immunogold complex technique for electron microscopy were used to localize and identify thyrotropic (TSH) producing cells in the pars distalis of Rana ridibunda. A double immunostaining procedure was used to distinguish TSH cells from other glycoprotein hormone producing cells. Rabbit anti-human--TSH was used as the primary antiserum and revealed a basophil, PAS and alcian blue positive cell type in the ventro-central zone of the gland. Under the electron microscope, TSH cells show irregular morphology, polymorphic secretory granules with diameters ranging between 120 and 375 nm and poor development of the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex; they are usually polarized towards capillaries. Ultrastructural morphometry (point-counting method) was used to evaluate stereological parameters of rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complex, secretory granules and mitochondria.This work has been supported by grant 2184-83 from the Comisión Asesora (CAICYT) of Spain 相似文献

Summary Salivary gland cells of members of theDrosophila melanogaster group (from four different subgroups) were examined electron microscopically and histochemically during the late larval period of development. The secretory product, which is supposed to be utilized as glue at the time of puparium formation, appears, by analogy to Palade and Jamieson's results, to be synthesized partially in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and partially in the Golgi complex. The latter is also the usual site of the packaging of the product into secretory granules, except in the case of one of the secretory granule components ofD. lucipennis. The phylogenetic relationships among the subgroups, implied by the morphological appearance of the secretory granules, fit well with the existing phylogenetic relationships within the group. The secretory granules of each species have their own morphological features; granules of species of the same subgroup share some of these features. Secretion occurs from the cells via exocytosis during which the morphology of the secretory granules changes. Light microscope examination of PAS (Periodic Acid-Schiff reaction) stained glands shows a strong positive reaction in most species, with the exception of the species of thesuzukii subgroup which show a weak, or a negative reaction (D. rajasekari). Electron histochemical localization of polysaccharides in the secretory granules was possible inD. melanogaster and the species of theananassae subgroup. 相似文献

Summary Coagulation of hemolymph in the shrimp Sicyonia ingentis was studied using light and electron microscopy. Differential counts of unclotted hemolymph show that 54% of the hemocytes are deposit cells characterized by a high nucleocytoplasmic ratio, a few granules, and cytoplasm filled with distinctive deposits. The remaining hemocytes have numerous large or small granules filling the cytoplasm. Examination of clotted hemolymph to which trypan blue had been added shows that deposit cells lyse, whereas the granulocytes exclude the dye, attach to slides, and extend filopodia. This suggests that deposit cells, not granulocytes, initiate coagulation. Ultrastructural changes in deposit cells were studied at specific times after mixing hemolymph and seawater. Deposit cells fixed immediately after removal from shrimp were shaped like elliptical discs and contained abundant, 50 nm diameter cytoplasmic deposits. After 30 s in seawater, deposit cells displayed several cytoplasmic blebs, and had aggregated the deposits. Cytolysis occurred by 45 s. Linear arrays of deposit appeared to extend through breaks in the plasma membrane, forming filamentous strands that hydrated to produce the clot. At 1 min after withdrawal, spheres of clotted hemolymph were seen, each surrounding a lysed deposit cell. Granulocytes remained relatively unchanged and trapped between adjacent expanding clots. Coagulation via hemocyte lysis is compared with other clotting mechanisms observed in various crustaceans and arthropods. 相似文献

Summary The modified protein A-gold immunocytochemical technique was applied to the localization of amylase in rat pancreatic acinar cells. Due to the good ultrastructural preservation of the cellular organelles obtained on glutaraldehyde-fixed, osmium tetroxide-postfixed tissue, the labelling was detected with high resolution over the cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), the Golgi apparatus, the condensing vacuoles, the immature pre-zymogen granules, and the mature zymogen granules. Over the Golgi area, the labelling was present over the transitional elements of the endoplasmic reticulum, some of the smooth vesicular structures at thecis- andtrans-faces and all the different Golgi cisternae. The acid phosphatase-positive rigidtrans-cisternae as well as the coated vesicles were either negative or weakly labelled. Quantitative evaluations of the degree of labelling demonstrated an increasing intensity which progresses from the RER, through the Golgi, to the zymogen granules and have identified the sites where protein concentration occurs. The results obtained have thus demonstrated that amylase is processed through the conventional RER-Golgi-granule secretory pathway in the pancreatic acinar cells. In addition a concomitance has been found between some sites where protein concentration occurs: thetrans-most Golgi cisternae, the condensing vacuoles, the pre- and the mature zymogen granules, and the presence of actin at the level of the limiting membranes of these same organelles as reported previously (Bendayan, 1983). This suggests that beside their possible role in transport and release of secretory products, contractile proteins may also be involved in the process of protein concentration. 相似文献

Fine structure of the corpuscles of stannius in the toadfish. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The micro-anatomy of the corpuscles of Stannius of the toadfish, Opsanus tau, an aglomerular marine teleost, has been studied by light and electron microscopy. The corpuscles are composed of extensively anastomosed cords of epithelial cells which maintain intimate contact with blood capillaries. Most of the epithelial cells contain acidophilic granules which also show a positive reaction with the periodic acid-Schiff technique and aldehyde fuchsin. On the basis of fine structural criteria, three cell types can be recognized. The granular cells contain abundant quantities of granular endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, Golgi apparatus with prosecretory granules, coated vesicles, polymorphic mitochondria with lamellar cristae, filaments, microtubules, a cilium, a variety of lysosome-like dense bodies, glycogen particles, lipid droplets, secretory granules and intranuclear lipid-like inclusions. One variety of agranular cell (type I) is characterized by the total absence of secretory granules, but it contains large amounts of granular endoplasmic reticulum and ribosomes, conspicuous profiles of Golgi apparatus, coated vesicles and sometimes an abundance of glycogen. Another variety of agranular cell (type II) has poorly developed cytoplasmic organelles. The perivascular space between the capillary and parenchyma contains connective tissue cells and abundant nerve fibers. The different types of epithelial cells observed in the corpuscles of Stannius of this fish may represent functional stages of the secretory cycle in a single cell type. 相似文献

Upon fractionation of a post mitochondrial supernatant from rat liver, phosphorylase kinase activity was largely recovered in the cytosol and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) fraction. The presence of phosphorylase kinase in SER vesicles was not due to an interaction of the enzyme with glycogen particles, since previous elimination of SER glycogen either by 48 h animal starvation or by treatment of the membrane fraction with -amylase did not significantly alter phosphorylase kinase activity content. Washing of the initial pellet of SER fraction (crude SER) by dilution and recentrifugation, released in the supernatant an amount of phosphorylase kinase activity, which is dependent on: i) the degree of dilution, ii) the number of washes, iii) the ionic strength of the washing solution and iii) the presence or absence of Ca2+. Crude SER-associated phosphorylase kinase was marginally affected by increased concentrations of antibody against rabbit skeletal muscle holoenzyme which nevertheless drastically inhibited cytosolic enzyme activity, while it showed a higher resistance to partial proteolysis and a different Western blotting profile with anti-phosphorylase kinase when compared with the soluble kinase. A small but significant fraction of SER phosphorylase kinase was strongly associated with the microsomal fraction being partly extractable only in presence of detergents. This membrane-bound enzyme form exhibited an alkaline pH optimum, in contrast to the neutral pH optima of both soluble and weakly associated phosphorylase kinase.Abbreviations SER

The mandibular gland of the Djungarian hamster was examined by light microscopy, and transmission and scanning electron microscopies. Its acinar cells reacted with periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and were weakly stained with alcian blue (AB). There were intercellular canaliculi between the acinar cells. These cells therefore appeared to be seromucous. The acinar epithelium was composed of light cells containing various spherical secretory granules. The granular cells of the mandibular gland possessed many acidophilic granules exhibiting a positive reaction to PAS stain. They were frequently observed at the junction of the acini and intercalated ducts in all mandibular glands examined. All of these cells were light and contained secretory granules of varying size and density. The intercalated ducts consisted exclusively of light cells possessing a few round granules of high density in the apical region. The striated ducts were comprised of two portions--a secretory portion and a typical striated portion without secretory granules. The secretory portion consisted of light, dark and specifically light epithelial cells containing acidophilic granules, which exhibited a strongly positive PAS reaction. The epithelium of typically striated portions was composed of light and dark cells containing fine vacuoles in the apical region. The mandibular gland of the Djungarian hamster revealed no histological differences between sexes. 相似文献

Using transmission electron microscopy, light microscopy (Giemsa May‐Grumwald), and the Periodic Acid‐Schif (PAS) and Sudan Black B staining techniques, hemocytes in the hemolymph of adult female Dactylopius coccus were characterized. The following, in order of abundance, were found: granulocytes, plasmatocytes, prohemocytes, and oenocytoids. Granulocytes varied in size with granulations in the cytoplasm, a large quantity of mitochondria, rugose endoplasmatic reticulum, ribosomes and vesicles, central or exocentric, spherical and occasionally lobulate nucleus. Plasmatocytes were polymorphic with irregularities in the plasma membrane; cytoplasm contained mitochondria, rugose endoplasmatic reticulum and vesicles, and exocentric, spherical, or irregular nucleus. In both types of hemocytes, scant polysaccharides and lipids were found. Prohemocytes were small and spherical with homogeneous cytoplasm and large exocentric nuclei. Oenocytoids were oval or irregular with dense homogeneous cytoplasm and elongated exocentric nuclei. The percentages of granulocytes on different days (d 1 and 10) during the life of the adult female were significantly different, as were those of plasmatocytes on d 30 and 50 and prohemocytes on d 1 and 50. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

We examined regulatory properties of bilirubin UDP-glucuronyltransferase in sealed RER (rough endoplasmic reticulum)- and SER (smooth endoplasmic reticulum)-enriched microsomes (microsomal fractions), as well as in nuclear envelope from rat liver. Purity of membrane fractions was verified by electron microscopy and marker studies. Intactness of RER and SER vesicles was ascertained by a high degree of latency of the lumenal marker mannose-6-phosphatase. No major differences in the stimulation of UDP-glucuronyltransferase by detergent or by the presumed physiological activator, UDPGlcNAc, were observed between total microsomes and RER- or SER-enriched microsomes. Isolated nuclear envelopes were present as a partially disrupted membrane system, with approx. 50% loss of mannose-6-phosphatase latency. The nuclear transferase had lost its latency to a similar extent, and the enzyme failed to respond to UDPGlcNAc. Our results underscore the necessity to include data on the integrity of the membrane permeability barrier when reporting regulatory properties of UDP-glucuronyltransferase in different membrane preparations. 相似文献

Alterations in the liver of rats 6 h after a dose of phenobarbitone have been studied by subcellular fractionation, conventional electron microscopy and morphometric analysis. The area immediately surrounding the central vein was the only area to undergo any alterations. There was a morphometrically measurable but not observable cellular hypertrophy of 71% whilst the hepatocyte complement of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) was increased by 72% and 93% respectively. The increases in RER and SER were not apparent by observation and it is assumed that they have been diluted by the cell hypertrophy to 1% and 22% which must be below the threshold for detection by subjective observation. Following subcellular fractionation and measurement of microsomal protein, there was no significant difference in the level of microsomes isolated from control or treated rats. Therefore, the morphometrically measured increase in RER and SER would appear to be restricted to a relatively small population of hepatocytes adjacent to the central vein. Such an increase would represent only a small percentage of total microsomes in a homogenate and would almost certainly be masked by variation in animals and techniques. Disruption of RER was also observed in hepatocytes that would proliferate their SER should phenobarbitone treatment have been continued. Therefore this RER disruption would seem in no way to interfere with the process of membrane and enzyme synthesis. 相似文献

The influence of fixation on the carbohydrate cytochemistry of rat salivary gland secretory granules
J. A. V. Simson 《The Histochemical journal》1977,9(5):645-657
Synopsis A series of studies was performed to assess the optimum fixation conditions for staining of carbohydrate-containing constituents of rat salivary gland secretory granules. In the parotid and submandibular salivary glands of the rat, the reactivity of secretory granules, at both the light and electron microscopic level, with routine stains and with cytochemical reagents was highly dependent upon the nature of the fixative employed. At the light microscopic level, secretory granules in rat parotid gland were periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) positive if fixed with buffered formalin fixatives. However, if the gland was fixed with lipid-solvent-containing fixatives, or with formalin at a very acid pH (as in Bouin's fixative), the PAS reactivity of the granules was lost. In the submandibular gland of rats, the acinar cells and granular tubules behaved similarly after such fixation in terms of their PAS reactivity, particularly in males; acinar cells of the female submandibular gland stained only lightly with PAS. At the fine structural level, the morphology of secretory granule constituents depended on the buffer used (cacodylate, phosphate or collidine) and on whether or not tissue was post-osmicated. Post-osmication considerably reduced the reaction of secretory granule components with stains for carbohydrates.The experimental evidence indicated that the carbohydrate-containing components of both parotid and submandibular gland secretory granules were not typical long-chain neutral or acidic mucins, but were rather glycolipids or lipophilic glycoproteins that were solubilized by lipid solvents or at acidic pH and were lost or destroyed in the presence of strong oxidants. 相似文献

Summary The formation and secretion of ecdysteroid by the prothoracic gland cells of Galleria mellonella (Insecta, Lepidoptera) were investigated electron microscopically and immunocytochemically. The moulting hormone ecdysone becomes first evident in vesicles and tubules of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). The SER forms secretory granules in which ecdysone was shown immunocytochemically. The Golgi apparatus seems not to be directly involved in ecdysone secretion. The secretory granules are released from the cells by exocytosis.Supported by the Sächsische Akademie der Wissenschaften zu LeipzigThe author is grateful to Mrs. Angelika Schmidt for her excellent assistance 相似文献

本实验用电镜细胞化学方法观察了大鼠骨髓粒细胞发育过程中内质网的髓过氧化物酶(MPO)反应和葡萄糖-6-磷酸酶(G-6-P)反??应。结果表明:MPO除定位于内质网、核膜,还出现在高尔基体和颗粒,它是粒细胞内质网的合成产物。G-6-P只在内质网、核膜中出现,它是内质网膜的结构成分。MPO反应的超微结构定位随粒细胞发育而变,利用这种变化作标志可以划分不同发育阶段的粒细胞;G-6-P反应定位不随发育而变,但反应强度与内质网的多寡、功能状态相对应。实验还表明核膜与内质网在结构、功能上的一致性;尤其在成熟粒细胞内质网很少的情况下,核膜可能代替了内质网的功能。 相似文献

Summary The effect of copulation on the rat coagulating gland (anterior prostate) was studied. At 4 to 6 h after the beginning of copulation the coagulating glands of rats that had produced copulatory plugs were nearly empty of secretion. Ultrastructurally, the coagulating gland has large cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and few condensing vacuoles or secretion granules. After copulation the number of secretion granules and the frequency of their expulsion into the lumen increased. Also in the lumen were fragmentation vesicles (50–100 nm diameter) that were bounded by a unit membrane and appeared to arise from microvilli. At 4, 6, and 7h after the beginning of copulation there was an increase in apical blebbing. Blebbing was found in both perfusion and immersion-fixed tissue. Also, after copulation there was an increase in light cells that were characterized by reduced RER cisternae, an electron lucent cytoplasm, and atrophic Golgi apparatus. The luminal ground substance, secretion granules, and some Golgi elements, contained polysaccharides as seen with the periodic acid-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate method. 相似文献
