The surface architecture of rat esophagus during the ontogeny is studied. Single cilia on the cells of the apical surface can be observed with the scanning electron microscope till the day 17 of the fetal period. Ciliogenesis and function of the single cilia are discussed by literature. Based upon results of our investigations we give the following interpretation: The single cilia are responsible for differentiation of the transitional columnar epithelium. The stop of mitosis, which is connected to constitution of single cilia, allows the formation of cell organelles. About the day 21 after conception ciliary cells are found. Their function is still unknown. They are observed on the esophageal surface at the same time, when primary ciliary cells arise on the trachea of the rat. The columnar epithelial cells transform into a squamous epithelium within 48 hours. The keratinisation and exfoliation of the surface cells occur definitely post-partum. 相似文献

The time of appearance, morphology and topographic distribution of gastrin/CCK-, somatostatin-, 5HT-, and bombesin-like immunoreactive cells during embryonic and postnatal development were studied in chicken antrum and duodenum with immunohistochemical methods. Gastrin/CCK-like cells appeared on or about the 11th day in the antrum and duodenum, somatostatin-like cells around the 12th day in the antrum and the 11th day in the duodenum, bombesin-like cells appeared only in the antrum and only at hatching. In the early stages of development all the immunoreactive cells were localized in the surface epithelium, descending deeper into the glands as these form, although some cells could always be seen in the surface epithelium. Around the 17th day the number of gastrin/CCK-like cells and somatostatin-like cells in the antrum increases, while 5HT-like already become more numerous in the duodenum from the 13th day onwards. Two territories were recognized in the antrum of the adult: the first was near the duodenum where gastrin/CCK-like and somatostatin-like cells, often in close contact, were very numerous; the other territory was near the gizzard where bombesin-like cells were more numerous. Both regions contained 5HT-like cells in smaller number. In adult duodenum, 5HT-like cells were the most numerous, while somatostatin-like cells and gastrin/CCK-like cells, found in more superficial locations, were more scanty. 相似文献

The anlage of the spiral prominence can be seen on the 37th day of development as a small protrusion of the epithelium towards the lumen of the cochlear duct. During the further progress, the spiral prominence more distinctly protrudes by augmentation of the vascularized connective tissue. In the epithelial cells pinocytotic vesicles near the plasmalemma are seen earliest lateral and basal on the 37th day, apical on the 39th day. The epithelial cells send basal cytoplasmic extensions towards the connective tissue. Starting on the 44th day, small invaginations of connective tissue extend into the epithelium, remaining separated from the epithelial cells by the basal lamina. Until the 48th day, the monostratified epithelium remains columnar, thereafter it changes to cuboidal or flat. Towards the end of the development, the invaginations of the connective tissue nearly reach the surface of the epithelium, being separated from the endolymph by a small epithelial area. 相似文献

The effect of ethanol on the cerebellar cortex of chick embryos was studied in semi-thin sections of material prepared for electron microscopy. The embryos were injected with ethanol on the 3rd or 6th day of incubation and observed until days 13, 15, 17 and 21 of development. A decrease was seen in the number of germinal cells generated, together with defects in neuronal migration and the existence of a lower quantity of cells due to a generalised process of cell death. At the same time, a progressive neuronal degeneration was observed until the 15th day of incubation, the tissue recovering progressively on days 17 and 21. On the other hand, the embryos treated with ethanol on the 3rd day were less affected than those injected on the 6th day. 相似文献

Induction of genes coding for the K1 and K10 keratins during mouse development was studied by measuring the accumulation of their respective mRNAs in day 10 to 17 embryos using an RNase protection assay. Although these two keratins are coexpressed in the suprabasal layers of the epidermis, it was found that while K1 mRNA was detectable as soon as day 10, K10 mRNA was not detectable before day 12. The expression of these genes at this stage of development was not expected since they are specifically associated with keratinization, a process that does not begin before day 17 of gestation. Histological examination of the epidermis of day 10 to 17 embryos suggests that both genes are induced in cells committed to epidermal differentiation, after stratification has started but before the onset of keratinization. It was also found that the two mRNAs increased in abundance steadily and significantly until day 16 and that, in spite of the expectation that filaments should contain equivalent amounts of each subunit, K1 mRNA remained more abundant than K10 mRNA at all times including in adult epidermis. These observations indicate that the two genes are regulated independently during development. 相似文献

It is currently unclear whether intestinal metaplasia at the esophagogastric junction and in the distal esophagus represent a continuum of the same underlying disease process, i.e., gastroesophageal reflux, or constitute different entities with a different pathogenesis. Biopsies below the Z line might show specialized epithelium in some patients and the question is whether this is another form of short segment Barrett's esophagus or whether it is related to a generalized atrophic process of the stomach. Data from recent studies regarding the expression of cytokeratin CK7 and CK20 in intestinal metaplasia (IM) found at the gastroesophageal junction are conflicting. Prompted by these data we undertook the present study: a) to evaluate the expression of CK7 and CK20 in IM of the gastric cardia and to compare the findings with those in patients with Barrett's esophagus and IM of the gastric corpus and antrum mucosa; and b) to evaluate the immunophenotype of non-intestinalized cardiac mucosa and to compare it with that of normal gastric epithelium. We studied the expression of CK7 and CK20 on biopsy specimens from patients with long-segment Barrett's esophagus (n=17) and surgical resection and biopsy specimens of gastric cardia (n=15), corpus (n=14) and antrum (n=22) from patients with histological evidence of IM. Eighty-four biopsy specimens from 42 patients (antrum n=15, corpus n=20, cardia n=7) without evidence of IM were studied as a control group. We observed an immunophenotype characterised by diffuse moderate to strong CK7 staining on the surface and crypt epithelium combined with strong CK20 staining on the surface and superficial part of the crypts in 94.1% (16/17) of the cases with long-segment Barrett's esophagus, but in none of the 36 cases with IM in distal stomach (antrum and corpus). IM in the gastric cardia expressed the immunophenotype seen in IM of the gastric mucosa in 93.3% (14/15) of the cases. On the other hand, normal cardiac epithelium expressed patchy strong CK7 staining on the surface epithelium and on both, superficial and deep parts of the pits combined with patchy strong CK20 staining on the surface epithelium and superficial pits, a feature permitting distinction of the normal cardiac epithelium from those of the normal gastric antrum and corpus epithelium. We conclude that the expression of cytokeratins 7 and 20 can be used to distinguish the origin of IM of the gastroesophageal junction. The CK7/20 immunophenotype of IM in the gastric cardia closely resembles that of the IM in the gastric antrum and corpus and is different from IM in long-segment Barrett's esophagus. In contrast, the CK7/20 immunophenotype of the cardiac epithelium is different from that of the gastric antrum and corpus mucosa, suggesting that cardiac epithelium might not be a native normal gastric epithelium but one that is acquired as a consequence of longstanding inflammation. Changing pattern of CK7 and CK20 expression from normal to intestinalized epithelium suggests that IM arising from cardiac epithelium might have distinctive features. 相似文献

Summary The development of endocrine cells in the chicken proventriculus has been investigated using light-and electron-microscopy in conjunction with silver and immunocytochemical techniques. The first morphologically detectable endocrine cells were found in 5-day-old embryos by electron microscopy. From the 9th to the 13th day, endocrine cells in contact with the lumen of the organ could be detected both by electron and light (silver impregnation) microscopy. The number of open-type endocrine cells progressively decreased and the number of closed-type increased after this stage. Until the 16th day, endocrine cells were located exclusively in the luminal epithelium, but afterwards they appeared in progressively greater numbers in the compound glands. After hatching, long cytoplasmic processes could be seen in the endocrine cells. Immunoreactivities to regulatory substances appeared in the following order: serotonin (day-14), avian pancreatic polypeptide, glucagon and somatostatin (day-16), bombesin and neurotensin (day-18), and finally, met-enkephalin (day-21). 相似文献

The present work quantifies hyaluronan (HA) during the late pregnancy and post-partum in order to provide a better understanding of the role of HA in the adaptations that occur in the pubic symphysis during this period. HA was quantified in situ (histochemically) and in interpubic tissue extracts by fluorimetric assay. Samples were taken from virgin mice and from pregnant animals at various stages of pregnancy: 12th-18th days into pregnancy, the day of delivery (D19) and the 3rd and 5th day post-partum. The quantitative fluorimetric analysis indicated a gradual increase of HA in the interpubic tissue throughout late pregnancy (2.4-14.6 microg/mg dry weight). This was followed by a decrease beginning on D19 (12.4 microg/mg), reaching close to virgin levels (2.2 microg/mg) on the 5th day post-partum. The same optical density changes could be seen in the HA staining. Furthermore, the histochemical analysis demonstrated the presence of HA both in the extracellular matrix of the tissue and within its cells. Such results indicate that the extracellular presence of HA may contribute to the transformation of the symphysis into a flexible structure. In addition, HA's intracellular presence (until the 18th day of pregnancy) may contribute to cellular proliferation. Finally, during parturition and on the 5th day post-partum, HA may contribute to the maintenance of the myofibroblastic phenotype of ligament cells, aiding the ligament involution after parturition. 相似文献

Ciliated cells were found in the epithelium of the oral cavity of human embryos and fetuses starting from the seventh week of prenatal development. At the early stages of prenatal development (until the 13th week), cells with cilia cover most of the dorsal surface of the tongue and the soft palate, whereas they are found only near the gland ducts in the circumvallate and foliate lingual papillae after 17 weeks of development. The ultrastructure of the axoneme of cilia corresponds to the structure of motile cilia and is represented by nine microtubule doublets that surround the central pair of microtubule singlets. An immunohistochemical study performed on weeks 10–12 of development identified nerve endings associated with the ciliated cells. Until the 14th week of development, the cytoplasm of ciliated cells is immunopositive for NSE. The spatial distribution of ciliated cells in the tongue epithelium until the 13th week of development is not related to the morphogenesis of lingual papillae, and their role in the human oral cavity during the first trimester of pregnancy is unclear and requires further study. 相似文献

The fine structure of the horny teeth of the lamprey, Entosphenus japonicus, was examined by light- and electron-microscopy. Most of the horny teeth consisted of two horny and two nonhorny layers. The primary horny layer was well keratinized, and the cells were closely packed and intensely interdigitated, being joined together by many modified desmosomes. The plasma membrane of the horny cell, unlike the membranes of other vertebrates, was not thickened. The intercellular spaces were filled with electron-dense material. Microridges were seen on the free surface. Structures resembling microridges were found on the underside of the primary horny layer. The secondary horny layer displayed various stages of keratinization. The keratinization started at the apex and developed toward the base. In the early stage of keratinization, the superficial cells became cylindrical and were arranged in a row forming a dome-shaped line. Their nuclei were situated in the basal part of the cells. The appearance of the nonhorny layers varied according to the degree of keratinization of the horny layers beneath them. The nonhorny cells were joined together by many desmosomes and possessed many tonofilament bundles. The replacement and keratinization of the horny teeth are discussed in the light of these results. 相似文献

Cytochemical characterization of mucosubstances of chick glanular stomach (proventriculus) changes from 15 days of development to postnatal and adult stages was studied. To corroborate these data cytochemical, ultrastructural and ultracytochemical study of chick embryo proventriculus from 7 to 20 days of development was performed. At the 7th day several layers of undifferentiated cells formed an epithelium which covered the walls of the glandular stomach. Mocosubstances were not found. Between the 9th and 5th day a single layer of cylindrical cells was encountered forming invaginations which originated deep glands. Three types of cells were separated from the above mentioned layer, dark, clear and undifferentiated. The dark cells had organelles which are involved in protein synthesis and the clear ones were rich in mitochondria. Argentaffine cells appeared at 15th day instead mucosubstances formed a thin coat on the epithelium at 9th day which increased at the end of development in the apical cytoplasm and gland cells. These observations demonstrate that proventriculus of chick embryo has ultrastructurally differentiated cells involved with enzymatic and hydrochloric acid secretion after the 9th day. These progressive events are correlated with the digestion process of yolk during embryogenesis. At the end of development the proventriculus has completely organized the glandular layer. 相似文献

One of the most widespread hypotheses for chondral canal morphogenesis suggests that the canal is an extension of the perichondrium. To study the possible relation between perichondrium and chondral canal morphology, the proximal epiphyses in the tibias of 42 rats were studied from birth to their 29th day. The study was divided into three periods: from birth to the 4th day before canal appearance; from the 5th day, the moment of canal appearance, until the appearance of the secondary ossification center of the epiphysis on the 9th day; the 3rd ran from this point on the 10th day until its full development. We have also divided the canal into three regions: entrance, neck and bottom. The central portion (lumen) and canal wall were analyzed in each region. Our results show the perichondrium to be a complex structure, composed of a series of cellular layers in a biphasic extracellular matrix (eosinophil and basophil). The canal walls are lined by a layer of elongated cells. In the lumen there are many different cell types: fibroblasts, histiocytes, multinuclear giant cells and multivacuolated cells. Our study of the canal, its walls and lumen show no morphological structure that is reminiscent of the perichondrium. These results suggest that the canal is not itself a continuation of the perichondrium. 相似文献

The anatomical distribution of PACAP-like immunoreactivity was investigated in sensory and peripheral organs of the zebrafish, Danio rerio, during the pharyngula, hatching and larval periods, by using indirect immunofluorescence methods. First PACAP-like immunoreactive (ir) elements appeared during the pharyngula period, at 24 hours post fertilization (hpf), within the most superficial layer of the retina and the dorsal aorta. At 48 hpf, additional ir cells were found in the olfactory placode and esophagus. At 72 hpf (hatching period), PACAP-like immunoreactivity was first detected in the ganglion cell layer of the retina, the otic sensory epithelium, pharyngeal arches, swim bladder and pancreatic progenitor cells. During day 5 of larval development, new groups of ir cells appeared in the liver, whereas no ir elements were observed in the olfactory placode. Subsequently, at day 13 of larval development, additional ir elements were found for the first time in some gut epithelial cells while those previously observed in the retina and otic sensory epithelium were absent. The transient expression of PACAP-like ir material in sensory organs suggests that the peptide could be implicated in neurotrophic activities and neurosensorial connections in the migration and/or differentiation processes. The appearance of PACAP-like ir elements in peripheral organs at different developmental stages, indicates that this peptide could be involved in the control of more specific functions as soon as these peripheral structures begin to operate. 相似文献

The development of tyrosine hydroxylase- and neuropeptide Y-immunoreactive cell bodies in the foetal rat brain was analyzed immunohistochemically using antibodies raised against tyrosine hydroxylase and neuropeptide Y. Possible co-existence of these two substance within the same neurones was investigated by comparison of adjacent sections. In the ventral medulla oblongata, neurones containing both neuropeptide Y- and tyrosine hydroxylase-like immunoreactivity were demonstrable in and around the lateral reticular nucleus as early as the 17th day of gestation. The total number and the proportion of cells exhibiting this co-existence increased from this stage up to birth. In the nucleus of the solitary tract in the dorsal medulla oblongata, NPY-immunoreactive cells bodies were first visualized at day 13 of gestation. However, although tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive cells could also be seen within the nucleus at this and later ages, they occupied a different, more caudal and medial part. Consequently, no neurones containing both neuropeptide Y and tyrosine hydroxylase were apparent up to the day of birth. Finally, in the locus coeruleus, tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive neurones were also demonstrable at day 13 of gestation. In this case, however, no neuropeptide Y-immunoreactive somata could be seen in the nucleus until day 21. The present study indicates that the existence of neuropeptide Y and tyrosine hydroxylase in co-containing neurones is not inextricably linked, and suggests that the factors controlling the synthesis of these two substances are not identical. 相似文献

在上世纪末Retterer(1885)认为法氏囊的淋巴细胞是法氏囊上皮本身发生的。到本世纪初有人认为从法氏囊间质的“原始成血细胞”侵入上皮分化而成的(Jolly,1915)。直到六十年代初,Ackerman和Knouff(1959),Ackerman(1962),还认为法氏囊髓部的淋巴细胞是上皮细胞发生的,而皮部的淋巴细胞是法氏囊间质细胞及未分化的上皮发生的。用染色体标记等技术证明生血干细胞是法氏囊淋巴细胞的先躯细胞(Moore和Owm1965,1966;Jaffe和Fechhelmer,1966;Le Douarin和Houssaint,1974以及Houssaint等,1976)。生血干细胞在鸡胚发育三天到四天就存在于血液中,只有在法氏囊原基发育到一定阶段才开始侵入(Le Douarin等,1976)。在鸡胚从孵化8天到14天侵入法氏囊原基 相似文献

The localization of catalase activity during the morphogenesis of duodenum and ileum has been studied in Swiss ICR mouse embryos from the 16th day of fetal life until birth. Catalase activity was also measured by a spectrophotometric method. Few diaminobenzidine-positive microperoxisomes are present at 15 days of gestation in undifferentiated cells of the stratified epithelium lining the lumen of duodenum and ileum. The number of microperoxisomes increases considerably in the duodenal enterocytes at 17 days; the highest concentration of microperoxisomes is attained at 18 days, after which time their number becomes stable until 4 weeks after birth. Biochemically, catalase activity is barely detected at 15 days in the first half of the small intestine, but afterwards it increases steadily up to 1 day after birth. In the ileum, the increase in microperoxisome number is far less important than in the duodenal enterocytes and reaches a maximum at 19 days of gestation, that is, immediately at birth. The level of catalase activity in the second half of the small intestine is also much lower than that measured in the first half. These results are discussed in relation to the biogenesis of microperoxisimes in the small intestine before birth. 相似文献

Retinoids can induce alterations in differentiation and morphogenesis in the hamster cheek pouch. In order to determine the stability of these changes, explants of neonatal pouch were exposed to 6 micrograms/ml of either retinyl acetate (RAc: 1.8 x 10(-5) M) or all-trans retinoic acid (RA: 2.0 x 10(-5) M) for an initial 3 of 7 days, out of a total of 21 days in organ culture. Three days of RAc or RA caused a delay in the differentiation and keratinization of the epithelium at least up to day 7 of culture. Additionally, two out of ten explants exposed to RA showed small downgrowths of epithelium into the stroma at 7 or 14 days. Seven days of exposure to either retinoid led to inhibition of epithelial keratinization, and produced a mucous metaplasia which was still seen at the end of the 21-day culture period. Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS)-positive, diastase-resistant material was present in the metaplastic epithelium, in intercellular, and in some instances, intracellular locations. An excess of either RAc or RA, for 7 days, induced persistent glandlike downgrowths of epithelium, suggesting that a stable alteration in the developmental program of the epithelium may have occurred. Many of these downgrowths possessed a lumen which was lined by cuboidal epithelium and contained PAS-positive, diastase-resistant secretory material. RA appeared more potent than RAc in inhibiting keratinization, in producing a mucous metaplasia, and in initiating glandlike downgrowths. The persistence of glandular downgrowths suggests that retinoids, either directly or indirectly, act in a manner similar to that of an embryonic inductor. 相似文献

The development of the guinea pig gallbladder epithelium was studied from the 19th day of intrauterine life to the 31st postnatal day by means of histological and histochemical staining reactions. At first, the epithelium is a columnar pseudostratified one. Its transformation into a simple columnar eptihelium is terminated by the 31st day of the intrauterine life. Then the epithelial cells become more columnar and their nuclei acquire a basal position. Somewhat later the epithelium invaginates the underlying mesenchyme. Up to the 57th day the epithelium contains much glycogen. Neutral and carboxylated mucosubstances are demonstrable after the 30th day. From the 48th day onwards sulphated mucosubstances can be visualized in some cells in the depth of the invaginations and from the 51st day in the epithelial cells of the gallbladder. "Light" mucoid cells appear first in the epithelium of day 58. After the 6th postnatal day the "light" cells are rarely seen in the invaginations. The development of the gallbladder epithelium is completed about the 10th postnatal day. The epithelial mucosubstances of the gallbladder of the adult animal could be classified as GC- mucins and S-mucinsA, 1.0 MgCl2. 相似文献

Summary Radial histophysiologic gradient culture uses thin walled, permeable collagen tubes to house inocula in the form of either
tissue explants, aggregates of cells, or dissociated cells. The outgrowth from these incoula spreads on the inner surface
of the cylindrical tube, completely lining the lumen. Metabolites are exchanged through the wall of the collagen tube by diffusion
from the pool of medium surrounding the cylinder. Urothelial cells form organoid stratified epithelium. A histophysiologic
gradient occurs with the basal surface of the epithelium attached to the collagen wall. At this interface, for normal bladder,
the initiation of epithelial renewal is seen in the basal zone, as shown by incorporation of tritiated thymidine. The simulation
of conditions in nature is attained by the exchange of metabolites between the pool of medium and the basal zone of the epithelium.
NBT-II appears as two concentric stratified epithelia. Isotopic labelling is seen throughout the epithelium attached to the
collagen membrane. In the superficial stratified epithelium remnants of nuclei are seen without isotopic labelling. Preparation
of living cultures and, after fixation, of histologic sections is technically easy.

Editor’s Statement Histiotypic cultures of normal and cancer tissues may develop into an important diagnostic tool that may
supplement the information obtained by classical histopathology. These methods also offer the possibility of probing the mechanism

The embryonic development of Melasoma saliceti takes eight days at room temperature. At the beginning of the 5th day the endoderm cells have already formed a unilayered epithelium of the midgut primordium. The midgut epithelium is formed by flat cells that are not connected by specialized intercellular junctions. Large vesicles can be seen in dilated intercellular spaces of the epithelium. Cytoplasmic projections, similar to microvilli, appear in the vesicles. During the 5th day ofdevelopment, the vesicles grow and become enclosed by the intercellular junctions of a zonula adherens type. During the 6th day of development the cell junctions surrounding the vesicles become transformed into a septate type. On the 8th day of development the vesicles come close to the apical sides of the midgut cells and open towards the yolk. At the same time the microvilli spread over the apical surface of the midgut primordium to form the regular brushborder of the larval midgut. In the species studied the vesicles appear to "prefabricate" the apical surfaces of the future midgut epithelium. 相似文献
