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

Summary An enzymatic method was developed to obtain intact seminiferous lobules from the testis of the dogfish (Scyliorhinus canicula L.). The freshly isolated lobules were then identified by use of a transillumination technique. Testes from mature dogfish were collected and transverse sections incubated with a mixture of collagenase (0.025%) + pronase (0.08%) at 4° C overnight. Dissociation of the tissue was achieved by mechanical agitation in a calcium and magnesium-free buffer (pH 7.8; 870 mOsm) at room temperature, for 30 min. Based on differences in light absorption and size as well as on comparison with the corresponding histological and ultrastructural cell composition, the seminiferous lobules were identified and classified according to the stages of spermatogenesis of Mellinger (1965). The characteristic changes take place in the size and surface of the lobules and are mainly due to differences in the arrangement of the germ cells, in their number, and in the light absorption characteristics of their nuclei. The combination of the procedures of isolation and transillumination of the dogfish seminiferous lobules, in native condition, offers an original method for the study of germ cell-Sertoli cell interactions in the non-mammalian vertebrate. 相似文献

The central role of the kidney during early development in the dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula , is haemopoietic. The kidney is the first tissue to become lymphomyeloid and lymphocytes and developing granulocytes are found in the interstitial tissue surrounding the renal tubules. The lymphomyeloid role of the kidney is transient and does not persist after hatching. The kidney is a major immunoglobulin (Ig) containing tissue during early development as evidenced by increasing numbers of Ig–positive cells. 相似文献

The reactivity of normal tonsilar cells with the monoclonal antibody anti-Y29/55 is characterized at the tissue and ultrastructural cytological level. Using an indirect immuno-alkaline phosphatase method on frozen sections the antibody labels mantle zone and germinal center lymphocytes. This staining reaction is more generalized in B-lymphocyte areas than that obtained with antibodies to IgM and IgD. By indirect immunoperoxidase staining, as well as by an indirect rosetting procedure in cell suspensions, the reactive cell population were either small resting lymphocytes or activated lymphocytes corresponding to centrocytes, centroblasts, immunoblasts and plasmoblasts; some plasma cells were also labeled. These results characterize the monoclonal antibody anti-Y29/55 as a pan-B-marker antibody, useful for labeling resting and activated peripheral B-lymphocytes in frozen tissue sections and cell suspensions. 相似文献

The coronary circulation is of great importance in maintaining cardiovascular function and consequently it has been extensively studied in many mammalian species. However, much less attention has been paid to the coronary circulation in other vertebrates. For example, while elasmobranch fishes are of special interest as they are the most ancient lineage of vertebrates to possess a coronary circulation, only qualitative studies exist on their coronary circulation and most concern the architecture of the large arteries. Our study tested the prediction that the coronary circulation of sharks is better developed than previously thought. However, to test this idea, a methodology was needed to quantify vascularity, vessel morphology and oxygen diffusion distances in a heart with predominantly spongy myocardium. Here, we describe this methodology using dogfish and rainbow trout and suggest that the dogfish spongy myocardium appears to rely predominantly on the coronary circulation for its oxygen supply, an arrangement that contrasts with the spongy myocardial tissue of rainbow trout. In support of this suggestion, the density of the microvasculature of the spongy myocardial tissue of dogfish exceeded that of their compact tissue. Although vascularity in the compact myocardium of dogfish was significantly lower than trout, intervascular distances were similar on account of a significantly larger vessel diameter in dogfish, which corresponds to a larger red blood cell size of the dogfish when compared to trout.

Immunohistochemical evidence for neural mediation of VIP activity in the dogfish rectal gland 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) has been shown to increase chloride secretion from the rectal gland of the spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias. Immunohistochemistry was used to localize the distribution of immunoreactive VIP (iVIP). Rectal glands were perfused with either buffered acrolein or paraformaldehyde/glutaraldehyde, sectioned (20 micron) and processed by either avidin-biotin complex (ABC) or peroxidase anti-peroxidase (PAP) methods. At the light microscopic level, iVIP was observed in thick fibers which traversed the fibromembranous capsule of the rectal gland. In the parenchyma, smaller iVIP-containing fibers were noted within connective tissue and in close approximation to tubule cells. At the ultrastructural level, iVIP axons in the fibromembranous capsule were unmyelinated. Immunoreactive fibers within the parenchyma frequently terminated on the basal side of tubule cells. Within the glands, iVIP bouton terminals were observed and contained vesicles of different sizes, with reaction product in dense core vesicles (60-120 nm). We conclude that iVIP is distributed in nerve fibers throughout the dogfish rectal gland. The anatomic distribution suggests that VIP may act as a neurotransmitter in this model of chloride ion transport. 相似文献

In the present ultrastructural study we have extended previous reports on the histological organization and cell components of the lymphohaemopoietic masses occurring in the cranium, mainly in the orbit, the preorbital canal, and the suprapalatal and coiacoid areas of the holocephalan Chimaera monstrosa. Mature and developing granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes and plasma cells occur in a reticular and/or fibroblastic supporting stroma inside the cartilaginous skeleton. Heterophils, which are the most abundant granulocytes in the cranial tissue, contain two distinct cytoplasmic granular populations, whereas eosinophils show one uniformly electron dense granule type. Heterophils and eosinophils may differentiate from a common precursor producing granules of each cell type in relation to the activity of rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex. The presence of macrophages, lymphocytes and developing and mature plasma cells suggests an important role of the cranial lymphohaemopoietic tissue in eliciting the immune responses. A phylogenetical relationship between this tissue and the higher vertebrate bone marrow is proposed on the basis of histological similarities between the cell microenvironments governing haemopoietic differentiation in these organs. 相似文献

Immunohistologic and immunoelectron microscopic characterization of the mucosal lymphocytes of human small intestine by the use of monoclonal antibodies 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Monoclonal antibodies reactive with T cells, T cell subsets, B cells, monocytes, and natural killer cells were used to characterize the nature of mucosal lymphocytes in the human small intestine by application of the immunoperoxidase technique to tissue sections for light and electron microscopic examination. In addition, for comparison, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBL) were studied by immunoelectron microscopy. Most of the intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) were T cells (Leu-1+, T3+) and expressed the phenotype associated with cytotoxic/suppressor T cells (Leu-2a+, T8+). In contrast, a majority of T lymphocytes in the lamina propria expressed the phenotype associated with helper/inducer T cells (Leu-3a+, T4+). These observations confirm and extend the findings previously reported. In addition, a small number of cells in the lamina propria with the ultrastructural features of macrophages were found to react with anti-Leu-3a and anti-T4 antibodies. Although many IEL contained cytoplasmic granules and had ultrastructural features similar to those of circulating granular lymphocytes, none of these cells reacted with anti-Leu-7 (HNK-1), anti-T10, or anti-M1 antibodies. This suggests that IEL may not be related to circulating large granular lymphocytes, which are Leu-7+, T10+, M1+ and are associated with natural killer activity. Not only Leu-7+ PBL, but T8+, T4+, or T3+ mucosal lymphocytes or PBL also may contain cytoplasmic granules. Therefore, the cytoplasmic granules are not restricted to one cell type, in particular, to Leu-7+ cells. 相似文献

Ten monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) against glycoproteins of the bovine Reissner's fiber (RF) have been used in a structural and ultrastructural immunocyto-chemical investigation of the bovine subcommissural organ (SCO) and RF. The SCO of other vertebrate species has also been studied. For comparison, polyclonal antibodies against bovine RF (AFRU) were used. The SCO and RF of ox, pig and dogfish and the SCO of dog, rabbit, rat and frog were submitted to light-microscopic immunocytochemistry using AFRU and Mabs. Postembedding ultrastructural immunocytochemistry was applied to sections of bovine SCO using AFRU and Mabs. Bovine SCO consists of ependymal and hypendymal cell layers, the latter being arranged as cell strands across the posterior commissure, or as hypendymal rosette-like structures. All cytoplasmic regions of the ependymal and hypendymal cells were strongly stained with AFRU. Six Mabs showed the same staining pattern as AFRU, one Mab stained RF strongly and SCO weakly, two Mabs stained RF but not SCO, and, finally, one Mab (3B1) exclusively stained the apices of the ependymal and hypendymal cells. All Mabs recognized the SCO and RF of the pig. Two Mabs bound to the SCO of the dog. One Mab stained the SCO of the rabbit and another the SCO of the rat. The SCO of frog and dogfish were totally negative. Bovine SCO stained with AFRU, showed label in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and the secretory granules (SG) of the ependymal and hypendymal cells. The former, in the form of parallel cisternae, reticulum or concentric rings, was seen throughout all cytoplasmic regions. SG were abundant in the apical pole of the ependymal and hypendymal cells. Only one Mab showed a staining pattern similar to AFRU. Five Mabs showed strong reactions in the SG but weak labeling of the RER. Mab 3B1 showed the label confined to the SG only. Our results suggest that: (i) in the bovine tissue, some epitopes are present in both precursor and processed materials, whereas others are characteristic of mature glycoproteins present in SG and the RF; (ii) the bovine SCO secretes at least two different compounds present in ependymal and hypendymal cells: (iii) both compounds coexist in the same secretory granule; (iv) there are conserved, class-specific, and species-specific epitopes in the glycoproteins secreted by the SCO of vertebrates. 相似文献

Summary The jugular bodies in adult Rana pipiens, are surrounded by a capsule of mesothelium and connective tissue, and their parenchyma consists of cell cords arranged in a sinusoidal network. The cell cords are formed by irregular reticular cells, showing numerous filaments and joined together by zonulae adhaerents. The intercellular spaces are filled by reticular fibres and free cells. These latter are small and medium lymphocytes, lymphoblasts, and developing and mature plasma cells. Additionally, free macrophages, neutrophils and acidophils also occur. Sinusoidal blood vessels show thin walls with numerous filaments and pinocytotic vesicles. They exhibit a discontinuous basement membrane, and tight junctions frequently occur between endothelial cells. Occasionally, lymphatic vessels are found and the innervation is principally vasomotor, although nerve endings appear remarkably near reticular cells and lymphocytes. The jugular bodies of adult R. pipiens are plasma cell and antibody-forming organs, whose functional significance is discussed in relation to their ultrastructural organization. 相似文献

We have studied the cell cycle of resting T lymphocytes from long-term (LT) cultures following stimulation with phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and recombinant Interleukin 2 (IL-2). We examined the kinetics of entry into S phase by autoradiography, the accumulation of cellular RNA by microfluorometric techniques, and ultrastructural morphology by electron microscopy. In addition, we examined the expression at the mRNA level of six cell cycle-dependent growth-regulated genes (c-fos, c-myc, KC-1, JE-3, vimentin, and histone H3). We show that T lymphocytes of LT cultures respond differently to mitogenic stimulation than the T lymphocytes of freshly isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cell cultures. At the ultrastructural, biochemical, and molecular levels, resting T lymphocytes of LT cultures can be distinguished from physiological (G0) lymphocytes of peripheral blood. 相似文献

The cell composition of the spleen of the dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula L. was investigated by electron microscopy. It comprised areas of red and white blood cells. The red cells were observed in various stages of development and the spleen is probably the main erythropoietic organ, it is likely that thrombocytes are also produced in the spleen. The presence of plasma cells, and the appearance of rosette-like contacts between lymphocytes and phagocytic cells, probably macrophages, indicated that immunological processes were taking place. Destruction of effete blood cells, primarily erythrocytes, was indicated by the presence of macrophages containing residues of ingested blood cells. 相似文献

Summary The pineal parenchyma of the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula contains sensory (receptor) cells and supporting cells. The ultrastructural characteristics of these cells are described. The sensory cell is a photoreceptor-like cell the outer segment of which is, however, often irregularly developed. Neuropil-like areas are present but no typical synapses have been observed. The classification of pineal receptor cells is discussed.Work done with the aid of a research scholarship from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Bad Godesberg, Germany. — The electron microscope used in this study was placed at the disposal of Professor Oksche by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. — The animal material was provided by the Stazione Zoologica di Napoli, Italy. 相似文献

Summary The blood of the dogfish, S. canicula, contains several types of leucocytes, namely thrombocytes, monocytes, lymphocytes and four populations of granulocytes. Three of these granulocyte types, G1, G3 and G4, are eosinophilic while G2 is heterophilic/neutrophilic. All of the leucocyte types, with the exception of G2 granulocytes and monocytes, can be separated by means of their differential adherent properties to glass and by density gradient centrifugation. Thrombocytes, G3 and G4 granulocytes can be separated in good purity by single-step methods while G1 granulocytes and lymphocytes require a combination of density gradient centrifugation followed by adherence to glass to remove contaminating thrombocytes. Depending on the cell type, between 11–45% of cells with consistently high viability can be recovered after separation. Separated populations of the thrombocytes and granulocytes will be especially useful for studies on the role of such cell types in inflammation. 相似文献

1. The plasma membrane of the dogfish erythrocyte is characterized. 2. Surface membranes were isolated from dogfish red cells. 3. Cells suspended in a hypotonic zinc chloride buffer (0.5 mM ZnCl2, 5 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0) tended to enucleate spontaneously. 4. By gentle homogenization relatively high yields of red cell "ghosts" were formed; these were purified using discontinuous gradients of sucrose and of glycerol solutions. Analyses of protein, carbohydrates and lipids were carried out. 5. There did not appear to be marked overall differences in the composition of the surface membrane of the nucleated dogfish erythrocyte compared to those of other species. 相似文献

Tissue oxygen consumption in liver and kidney of dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula L. were measured by manometric techniques after two types of zinc treatment: in vitro (1, 15, 60 and 180 ppm) and in vivo (subacute 10 ppm/21 days, and acute 80 ppm/24 hr). All in vitro treatments exert a strong inhibitory effect in both tissues. In vivo treatment affects liver tissue respiration at the acute dose. Subacute treatment shows no effects in both tissues. Results are discussed related to previous data on gill tissue respiration and zinc tissue accumulation in the dogfish. 相似文献

Summary Changes occurring in the epithelium covering bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (BALT) in the rat after several intratracheal administrations of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were studied using morphological and ultrastructural methods. The epithelium is invaded by W3/ 25-positive (T-helper) lymphocytes, the BALT epithelial cells become Ia-positive and develop microvilli; there is an apparent loss of cilia. The number of non-ciliated cells in stimulated BALT increases. The non-ciliated cells can be subdivided into two cell types, one with electron-dense cytoplasm and cytoplasmic granules and the other without granules. The electron-density of the latter cell type is intermediate between that of the ciliated cells and that of the granulecontaining non-ciliated cells. The granule-containing cell types may be responsible for the uptake of antigens, while the other non-ciliated cell may be involved in the production of the secretory component and the passage of secretory IgA.Supported by a research grant from the Nederlands Astma Fonds 相似文献

Physiological and biochemical studies have provided indirect evidence for a membrane-associated carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoform, similar to mammalian type IV CA, in the gills of dogfish (Squalus acanthias). This CA isoform is linked to the plasma membrane of gill epithelial cells by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor and oriented toward the plasma, such that it can catalyze the dehydration of plasma HCO(3)(-) ions. The present study directly tested the hypothesis that CA IV is present in dogfish gills in a location amenable to catalyzing plasma HCO(3)(-) dehydration. Homology cloning techniques were used to assemble a 1,127 base pair cDNA that coded for a deduced protein of 306 amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that this protein was a type IV CA. For purposes of comparison, a second cDNA (1,107 base pairs) was cloned from dogfish blood; it encoded a deduced protein of 260 amino acids that was identified as a cytosolic CA through phylogenetic analysis. Using real-time PCR and in situ hybridization, mRNA expression for the dogfish type IV CA was detected in gill tissue and specifically localized to pillar cells and branchial epithelial cells that flanked the pillar cells. Immunohistochemistry using a polyclonal antibody raised against rainbow trout type IV CA revealed a similar pattern of CA IV immunoreactivity and demonstrated a limited degree of colocalization with Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase immunoreactivity. The presence and localization of a type IV CA isoform in the gills of dogfish is consistent with the hypothesis that branchial membrane-bound CA with an extracellular orientation contributes to CO(2) excretion in dogfish by catalyzing the dehydration of plasma HCO(3)(-) ions. 相似文献

We have previously shown that Elasmobranchs-characterized by a partially calcified cartilaginous endoskeleton-presented a bony vertebral arch containing osteoblasts, osteocytes and resorbing cells. The aim of this study is to test the ability of Elasmobranchs to resorb bone tissue. The subcutaneous implantation in dogfish (Scyliorhinus canicula) of devitalized mineral-containing bone particles, obtained from a bony fish (the eel, Anguilla anguilla) resulted, after 21 2 months, in the formation of mononucleated as well as multinucleated cells around and between the bone fragments. By light microscopy, the multinucleated giant cells presented the general aspect of osteoclastic cells whereas, by transmission electron microscopy they never showed ruffled borders which are considered as the typical features of osteoclasts. Except for this character, the mononucleated and multinucleated cells exhibited the typical ultrastructural aspects leading us to say that these cells are involved in the resorption of the bone fragments. This study shows that Elasmobranchs are able to resorb implanted bone. 相似文献

The peripheral blood cells of Acanthopagrus australis include erythrocytes, elongated and rounded thrombocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils and monocytes. The ultrastructure of lymphocytes, neutrophils and monocytes is described. Type 1 cells with characteristic elongated, eosinophilic granules and type 2 cells with rounded, apparently labile granules are common in the gill filaments and do not increase or decrease significantly in abundance in ectoparasite-infested gill filaments. Extravascular neutrophils tend to be more evident in pathologic tissue. Lymphocytes and the macrophage-like type 3 cells are the most abundant infiltrating cells in pathologic gill tissue. Apart from ultrastructural and histochemical data, granule length and width are sufficient criteria to distinguish between the neutrophil, type 1, type 2 and type 3 cells. 相似文献
