Ultrastructure and cytochemistry of the tegument of Atriaster heterodus (Platyhelminthes: Monogenea)

The tegument of the polyopisthocotylean monogenean Atriaster heterodus Lebedev & Parukhin, 1969 was studied using transmission electron microscopy. The outer syncytial layer of the tegument is connected to the internal cell bodies by cytoplasmic extensions which interweave between the muscular fibres. The free surface of the syncytium has projections of the external membrane which are similar to microvilli. The undulating basal membrane, with numerous narrow elongate projections, is associated with the basal lamina situated between the syncytial and muscular layers. The cell bodies and syncytial layer of the tegument exhibit two types of vesicles, one with fibrous contents and one with electron-dense contents; these were analysed using two cytochemical tests, the E-PTA and alcian blue methods, used for the first time on monogeneans.     

Structure of the tegument and ectocommensal microorganisms of Gyliauchen nahaensis (Digenea: Gyliauchenidae), an inhabitant of herbivorous fish of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia

The ultrastructure of the tegument and tegument-associated microorganisms of the gyliauchenid digenean Gyliauchen nahaensis is described by transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The tegument is devoid of surface spines and is characterized by a moderately folded apical membrane, abundant vesicles, basal mitochondria, a folded basal plasma membrane, and a thick basal matrix. Microorganisms form a dense biofilm on the tegument of the posterodorsal surface and the excretory papilla. At least 7 microbial morphotypes were identified, including eubacteria, spirochaetes, and nanobacteria.     

Ultrastructure of the pre-implantation shark yolk sac placenta

During ontogeny, the yolk sac of viviparous sharks differentiates into a yolk sac placenta which functions in gas exchange and hematrophic nutrient transport. The pre-implantation yolk sac functions in respiration and yolk absorption. In a 10.0 cm embryo, the yolk sac consists of six layers, viz. (1) somatic ectoderm; (2) somatic mesoderm; (3) extraembryonic coelom; (4) capillaries; (5) endoderm; and (6) yolk syncytium. The epithelial ectoderm is a simple cuboidal epithelium possessing the normal complement of cytoplasmic organelles. The endoplasmic cisternae are dilated and vesicular. The epithelium rests upon a basal lamina below which is a collagenous stroma that contains dense bodies of varying diameter. They have a dense marginal zone, a less dense core, and a dense center. The squamous mesoderm has many pinocytotic caveolae. The capillary endothelium is adjacent to the mesoderm and is delimited by a basal lamina. The endoderm contains yolk degradation vesicles whose contents range from pale to dense. The yolk syncytium contains many morphologically diverse yolk granules in all phases of degradation. Concentric membrane lamellae form around yolk bodies as the main yolk granules begin to be degraded. During degradation, yolk platelets exhibit a vesicular configuration.     

Ultrastructure and cytochemistry of the tegument of Orthocoelium scoliocoelium and Paramphistomum cervi (Trematoda: Digenea)

The tegument of Orthocoelium scoliocoelium and Paramphistomum cervi was examined using histochemical techniques and electron microscopy. On the basis of the distribution of acid and alkaline phosphatase (E.C. 3.1.3.2, E.C. 3.1.3.1), non-specific esterase (E.C. 3.1.1.1), cholinesterase (E.C. 3.1.1.7) and succinate dehydrogenase (E.C. 1.3.99.1) at light microscope level two distinct regions were recognized, an outer and an inner zone. Electron microscopy revealed that the tegument comprises an outer surface syncytium underlain by a thick subsyncytial zone and musculature. Deeper still occur the nucleated "tegumental cells". The latter are in cytoplasmic continuity with the surface syncytium via vacuolated cytoplasmic trabeculae which traverse the muscle layers and the subsyncytial zone. Three types of tegumental cells each lacking mitochondria were observed. The T1 cells synthesize discoid and electron dense T1 bodies while T2 cells produce oval and electron lucent T2 bodies. The third type of tegumental cells apparently produce no secretory bodies and may represent an embryonic cell type. The surface syncytium contains T1 and T2 secretory bodies and is bounded apically by a plasma membrane invested externally by a fuzzy and filamentous glycocalyx. The surface syncytium lacks mitochondria and is traversed by infoldings of the basal plasma membrane. Beneath the surface syncytium the subsyncytial zone is largely comprised of fibrous interstitial material. This zone, which is particularly thick in the amphistomes, is traversed by trabeculae and extensions of underlying parenchymal cells which usually contain mitochondria and lysosomes. The subsyncytial zone overlies numerous circular and longitudinal muscle fibres. The absence of mitochondria and enzymes associated with active transport suggests that the amphistome tegument may be mainly specialized for protection of the worm against mechanical and chemical conditions prevailing in the rumen. Active uptake of nutrients is probably not a primary function.     

Isoparorchis hypselobagri: ultrastructure of the tegument and associated tissues in a digenean inhabiting a gaseous aerobic environment

Adult I. hypselobagri live in the swim bladder of the Indian catfish Wallago attu, a gaseous environment with a relatively high oxygen content. The ventral tegument, which in life is applied close to the swim bladder wall, is relatively unspecialized, showing typical ultrastructural features of the digenean surface. The dorsal tegument, which is exposed to the oxygen-rich surroundings, has numerous pyriform extensions of superficial parenchymal cells closely applied to the base of the surface syncytium. These extensions bear numerous mitochondria and send finger-like processes deep into the basal cytoplasm of the syncytium where they interdigitate with corresponding infolds of the basal tegument membrane. The pyriform parenchymal extensions are connected with underlying nucleated cell bodies via irregular glycogen-filled tubular processes, many of which end blindly in the interstitial tissue or expand into glycogen-filled bulbs beneath the cell bodies. These superficial parenchymal processes associate at gap junctions with ramifications of a distinct deeper parenchymal tissue which contains lipid, residual bodies and glycogen. The dorsal tegument and associated structures may constitute a respiratory organ, taking advantage of molecular oxygen diffusing across the surface syncytium to carry out aerobic energy transduction in the superficial parenchymal extensions. ATP so generated may diffuse inwards for distribution throughout the body in the deep parenchymal tissue. The extensive network of ramifying cytoplasmic tubules is supported by a fibrous matrix of interstitial tissue.     

The fine structure of the chinchilla placenta.

The structure of the placental labyrinth, interlobular or "coarse" syncytium, visceral (splanchnopleuric) yolk sac, giant cells and subplacenta of the chinchilla was studied with the electron microscope. The fine structure of the interhemal membrane of the placental labyrinth was found to be hemomonochorial, consisting of a single layer of syncytial trophoblast. In this respect, the placental labyrinth was similar to that of another caviomorph rodent, the guinea pig. The labyrinthine trophoblast had pinocytotic vesicles as well as larger vaculoes and multivesicular bodies. The interlobular syncytium contained granular endoplasmic reticulum, and in one case from early in gestation there were intracisternal granules in the ER. The visceral endodermal cells of the inverted yolk sac placenta had a well-developed system of apical vesicles and tubules as well as larger cytoplasmic vacuoles. Their appearance was similar to that of endodermal cells found in other rodents which are known to absorb proteins and other substances from the uterine lumen. Towards term the giant cells were often vacuolated and contained large deposits of glycogen as well as lipid droplets. The syncytial trophoblast of the subplacenta contained numerous moderately electron-dense granules which may be secretory in function; cytotrophoblastic cells lacked these granules. The subplacental syncytium often surrounded spaces or lacunae which contained an electron-dense granular material.     

多泡体形成过程的细胞化学研究

本实验用酶细胞化学和示踪细胞化学方法观察了睾丸间质细胞中多泡体的形成过程及其与溶酶体的关系。实验结果表明,睾丸间质细胞中多泡体的形成可分三个阶段:首先,一些含内吞物质的泡状结构进入高尔基体区域,与那里的小泡融合,形成内含少量小泡的前多泡体;然后,前多泡体互相融合,形成体积较大、基质电子密度低、内含小泡排列稀疏的低电子密度多泡体;最后,低电子密度多泡体通过表面长出微绒毛样结构并不断断裂的方式去除多余的界膜,形成体积较小、基质电子密度高、内含小泡排列紧密的高电子密度多泡体。因此,多泡体的形成既与内吞活动有关,又与高尔基体区域小泡有关。前多泡体和低电子密度多泡体不含溶酶体酶。在多泡体形成过程中,只有到高电子密度多泡体阶段,才与溶酶体发生关系,从溶酶体中获取溶酶体酶。多泡体形成后,常与自体吞噬泡靠近,可能参与睾丸间质细胞的自体吞噬活动。     

The fine structure of the tarsal glands of the honeybee Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera)

Summary Tarsal glands are located in the 6th tarsomere of adult honeybee queens, workers and drones. Their structural features are not cast or sex specific. The glandular epithelium is lined by a thin endocuticular layer. A cuticular pocket is formed from a postimaginal delamination of the cuticle secreted by the glandular epithelium. The apical plasma membrane of the glandular cells shows numerous cristae and microvilli lining large crypts that communicate with the subcuticular space. Pinocytotic vesicles, multivesicular bodies and residual dense bodies are present in the apical part of the glandular cells. The RER is well developed in perinuclear and basal parts of the glandular cells, but the Golgi apparatus is a discrete organelle without secretory granules. No exocytotic secretory structures were observed. To reach the glandular pocket, the non-proteinaceous secretory product must pass across the subcuticular space, the cuticular intima, the space between the intima and the cuticular wall, and the cuticular wall of the glandular pocket.     

LYSOSOME FUNCTION IN THE REGULATION OF THE SECRETORY PROCESS IN CELLS OF THE ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND

The nature and content of lytic bodies and the localization of acid phosphatase (AcPase) activity were investigated in mammotrophic hormone-producing cells (MT) from rat anterior pituitary glands. MT were examined from lactating rats in which secretion of MTH¹ was high and from postlactating rats in which MTH secretion was suppressed by removing the suckling young. MT from lactating animals contained abundant stacks of rough-surfaced ER, a large Golgi complex with many forming secretory granules, and a few lytic bodies, primarily multivesicular bodies and dense bodies. MT from postlactating animals, sacrificed at selected intervals up to 96 hr after separation from their suckling young, showed (a) progressive involution of the protein synthetic apparatus with sequestration of ER and ribosomes in autophagic vacuoles, and (b) incorporation of secretory granules into multivesicular and dense bodies. The content of mature granules typically was incorporated into dense bodies whereas that of immature granules found its way preferentially into multivesicular bodies. The secretory granules and cytoplasmic constituents segregated within lytic bodies were progressively degraded over a period of 24 to 72 hr to yield a common residual body, the vacuolated dense body. In MT from lactating animals, AcPase reaction product was found in lytic bodies, and in several other sites not usually considered to be lysosomal in nature, i.e., inner Golgi cisterna and associated vesicles, and around most of the immature, and some of the mature secretory granules. In MT from postlactating animals, AcPase was concentrated in lytic bodies; reaction product and incorporated secretory granules were frequently recognizable within the same multivesicular or dense body which could therefore be identified as "autolysosomes" connected with the digestion of endogenous materials. Several possible explanations for the occurrence of AcPase in nonlysosomal sites are discussed. From the findings it is concluded that, in secretory cells, lysosomes function in the regulation of the secretory process by providing a mechanism which takes care of overproduction of secretory products.
