Physiology and morphology of olfactory neurons associated with the protocerebral lobe around the alpha-lobe of the mushroom body were studied in the brain of the honeybee Apis mellifera using intracellular recording and staining techniques. The responses of neurons to behaviorally relevant odorants (a blend, and components of the Nasonov pheromone, and some other non-pheromonal odors) were recorded. Different response patterns were observed within different neurons, and often within the same neuron, in response to different stimuli. All the neurons stained had innervations in the protocerebral lobe. The cell profiles varied from cells connecting the antennal lobe with both the protocerebral and lateral protocerebral lobes (projection neurons), cells linking the pedunculus of the mushroom body with both the protocerebral and lateral protocerebral lobes (PE1 neurons), cells linking the alpha-lobe and protocerebral lobe with the calyces of the mushroom body (feedback neurons), and cells linking the alpha-lobe and protocerebral lobe with the antennal lobe (recurrent neurons), to cells connecting the protocerebral lobe with the contralateral protocerebrum (bilateral neurons). These findings suggest that the protocerebral lobe acts as an olfactory center associating with other centers, and provides multi-layered recurrent networks within the protocerebrum and between the deutocerebrum and the protocerebrum in honeybee olfactory pathways. 相似文献

The biogenic amine serotonin is a neurotransmitter and modulator in both vertebrates and invertebrates. In the CNS of insects, serotonin is expressed by identifiable subsets of neurons. In this paper, we characterize the onset of expression in the brain and suboesophageal ganglion of the honeybee during pupal development. Several identified serotonin-immunoreactive neurons are present in the three neuromeres of the suboesophageal ganglion the dorsal protocerebrum, and the deutocerebrum at pupal ecdysis. Further immunoreactive neurons are incorporated into the developing pupal brain in two characteristic developmental phases. During the first phase, 5 days after pupal ecdysis, serotonin immunoreactivity is formed in the protocerebral central body, the lamina and lobula, and the deutocerebral antennal lobe. During the second phase, 2 days later, immunoreactivity appears in neurons of the protocerebral noduli of the central complex, the medulla, and the pedunculi and lobes of the mushroom bodies. Three novel serotonin-immunoreactive neurons that innervate the central complex and the mushroom bodies can be individually identified. 相似文献

In this paper, we propose an ontogeny for previously identified cells from the median domain in the midline of the embryonic brain of the grasshopper Schistocerca gregaria. The so-called lateral cells (LCs) are characteristically located laterally within the median domain at its border with the protocerebral hemispheres. The LC occurs singly and can be identified in the early embryo on the basis of their expression of the cell surface lipocalin Lazarillo. Using immunocytochemical, dye injection, electron microscopical and histological methods, we show that these LC are neurons and derive as postmitotic cells directly from the epithelium of the median domain. Further, they and the other identified cells of the median domain such as the protocerebral commissure pioneers (PCP), co-express the Mes-3 antigen, consistent with a derivation from the mesectodermal germ layer of the embryo. Subsequent to axogenesis, electron microscopy reveals that these Mes-3-expressing LC fasciculate with the co-expressing PCPs within the developing protocerebral commissure. We present a model for the origin of all these cells based on histological data and bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. The model suggests a delamination of cells from the mesectoderm followed by a migration to their ultimate sites within the median domain. 相似文献

Male Manduca sexta moths are attracted to a mixture of two components of the female’s sex pheromone at the natural concentration ratio. Deviation from this ratio results in reduced attraction. Projection neurons innervating prominent male-specific glomeruli in the male’s antennal lobe produce maximal synchronized spiking activity in response to synthetic mixtures of the two components centering around the natural ratio, suggesting that behaviorally effective mixture ratios are encoded by synchronous neuronal activity. We investigated the physiological activity and morphology of downstream protocerebral neurons that responded to antennal stimulation with single pheromone components and their mixtures at various concentration ratios. Among the tested neurons, only a few gave stronger responses to the mixture at the natural ratio whereas most did not distinguish among the mixtures that were tested. We also found that the population response distinguished among the two pheromone components and their mixtures, prior to the peak population response. This observation is consistent with our previous finding that synchronous firing of antennal-lobe projection neurons reaches its maximum before the firing rate reaches its peak. Moreover, the response patterns of protocerebral neurons are diverse, suggesting that the representation of olfactory stimuli at the level of protocerebrum is complex. 相似文献

The commissures represent a major neuroarchitectural feature of the central nervous system of insects and vertebrates alike. The adult brain of the grasshopper comprises 72 such commissures, the first of which is established in the protocerebral midbrain by three sets of pioneer cells at around 30% of embryogenesis. These pioneers have been individually identified via cellular, molecular and intracellular dye injection techniques. Their ontogenies, however, remain unclear. The progenitor cells of the protocerebral midbrain are shown via Annulin immunocytochemistry to be compartmentalized, belonging either to the protocerebral hemispheres or the so-called median domain. Serial reconstructions based on bromodeoxyuridine incorporation confirm that their lineages do not intermingle. Dye injection into progenitor cells and progeny confirms this compartmentalization, and reveals that none of the pioneers are associated with a lineage of cells deriving from a protocerebral neuroblast or midline precursor. Immunocytochemical data as well as dye injection into identified pioneers over several developmental stages indicate that they differentiate directly from epithelial cells, but not from classical progenitor cells. That the commissural pioneers of the protocerebrum represent modified epithelial cells involves a different ontogeny to that described for pioneers in the ventral nerve cord, but parallels that of pioneer neurons of the peripheral nervous system. 相似文献

Abstract : Desensitization of many G protein-coupled receptors after ligand binding generally involves phosphorylation of the receptors and internalization of the ligandbound, phosphorylated receptors by a clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway. Olfactory receptor neurons from the channel catfish ( Ictalurus punctatus ) express the G protein-coupled odorant receptors and metabotropic glutamate receptors. To determine whether a clathrin-dependent receptor internalization pathway exists in olfactory receptor neurons, western blotting and immunocytochemistry were used to identify and localize clathrin and dynamin in isolated olfactory neurons. Clathrin and dynamin immunoreactivity was found in the cell bodies, dendrites, and dendritic knobs of the neurons. Using the activity-dependent fluorescent dye FM1-43 to monitor receptor internalization, we show that single olfactory neurons stimulated with the odorant amino acid l -glumate internalized the dye. Odorant-stimulated neurons showed a consistent pattern of internalized FM1-43 fluorescence localized in the cell bodies and dendritic knobs. Odorant-stimulated internalization was unaffected by the caveolae activator okadaic acid and was significantly decreased by a metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonist, suggesting that a functional, clathrindependent, receptor-mediated internalization pathway exists in olfactory receptor neurons. 相似文献

The neuroanatomy of the olfactory pathway has been intensely studied in many representatives of Malacostraca. Nevertheless, the knowledge about bilateral olfactory integration pathways is mainly based on Decapoda. Here, we investigated the olfactory projection neuron pathway of two marine isopod species, Saduria entomon and Idotea emarginata, by lipophilic dye injections into the olfactory neuropil. We show that both arms of the olfactory globular tract form a chiasm in the center of the brain, as known from several other crustaceans. Furthermore, the olfactory projection neurons innervate both the medulla terminalis and the hemiellipsoid body of the ipsi- and the contralateral hemisphere. Both protocerebral neuropils are innervated to a comparable extent. This is reminiscent of the situation in the basal decapod taxon Dendrobranchiata. Thus, we propose that an innervation by the olfactory globular tract of both the medulla terminalis and the hemiellipsoid body is characteristic of the decapod ground pattern, but also of the ground pattern of Caridoida. 相似文献

We have examined the electrical activity of interneurons within the higher levels of the crayfish olfactory system. In unstimulated
isolated crayfish head preparations, local protocerebral interneurons (LPI) of the hemiellipsoid bodies generate periodic,
low-frequency membrane depolarizations. The most reasonable explanation for these baseline fluctuations, which were exhibited
by all of the LPIs examined and which were reversibly abolished by either tetrodotoxin or low-calcium saline solution, is
that they reflect periodic synaptic drive from the axon terminals of olfactory projection neurons. One-third of tested LPIs
generated impulses in response to the odor stimuli we applied to the antennules. Those cells that did respond exhibited a
brief excitatory postsynaptic potential and one or two action potentials, even during prolonged odor pulses. Many of the responding
neurons also exhibited a delayed impulse burst 1 or 2 s following the stimulus pulse. Most of the responding cells recovered
their sensitivity to odors very slowly, exhibiting disadaptation periods of several minutes. The apparent refractory nature
of individual LPIs to olfactory stimulation is attributed in part to a hypothesized selectivity of connections between projection
neurons and protocerebral targets and in part to the electrical isolation of the recording electrode from many regions of
the extensive LPI dendritic tree.

Recent studies have highlighted the key role of the immune protein CD3ζ in the maturation of neuronal circuits in the CNS. Yet, the upstream signals that might recruit and activate CD3ζ in neurons are still unknown. In this study, we show that CD3ζ functions early in neuronal development and we identify ephrinA1-dependent EphA4 receptor activation as an upstream regulator of CD3ζ. When newly born neurons are still spherical, before neurite extension, we found a transient CD3ζ aggregation at the cell periphery matching the initiation site of the future neurite. This accumulation of CD3ζ correlated with a stimulatory effect on filopodia extension via a Rho-GEF Vav2 pathway and a repression of neurite outgrowth. Conversely, cultured neurons lacking CD3ζ isolated from CD3ζ(-/-) mice showed a decreased number of filopodia and an enhanced neurite number. Stimulation with ephrinA1 induces the translocation of both CD3ζ and its activated effector molecules, ZAP-70/Syk tyrosine kinases, to EphA4 receptor clusters. EphrinA1-induced growth cone collapse was abrogated in CD3ζ(-/-) neurons and was markedly reduced by ZAP-70/Syk inhibition. Moreover, ephrinA1-induced ZAP-70/Syk activation was inhibited in CD3ζ(-/-) neurons. Altogether, our data suggest that CD3ζ mediates the ZAP-70/Syk kinase activation triggered by ephrinA-activated pathway to regulate early neuronal morphogenesis. 相似文献

Alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptors mediate the majority of excitatory signaling in the CNS, and the functional properties and subcellular fate of these receptors depend on receptor subunit composition. Subunit assembly is thought to occur in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), although we are just beginning to understand the underlying mechanism. Here we examine the trafficking of Caenorhabditis elegans glutamate receptors through the ER. Our data indicate that neurons require signaling by the unfolded protein response (UPR) to move GLR-1, GLR-2, and GLR-5 subunits out of the ER and through the secretory pathway. In contrast, other neuronal transmembrane proteins do not require UPR signaling for ER exit. The requirement for the UPR pathway is cell type and age dependent: impairment for receptor trafficking increases as animals age and does not occur in all neurons. Expression of XBP-1, a component of the UPR pathway, is elevated in neurons during development. Our results suggest that UPR signaling is a critical step in neural function that is needed for glutamate receptor assembly and secretion. 相似文献

Neurons in the olfactory deutocerebrum of the spiny lobster, Panulirus argus, were recorded intracellularly and filled with biocytin. Recorded neurons arborized in the olfactory lobe (OL), a glomerular neuropil innervated by olfactory and some presumptive mechanosensory antennular afferents. The neurons responded to chemosensory input from the lateral antennular flagellum bearing the olfactory sensilla but not the medial flagellum bearing many non-olfactory chemosensory sensilla. Many neurons received additional mechanosensory input. Thus the OL integrates specifically olfactory with mechanosensory input. OL neurons had multiglomerular arborizations restricted to one or two of the three horizontal layers of the columnar glomeruli. OL local interneurons comprised core neurons with tree-like neurites and terminals in the base of the glomeruli and rim neurons with neurites surrounding the OL and terminals in the cap/subcap. The somata of OL local interneurons lay in the medial soma cluster (100000 somata). OL projection neurons arborized in the base of the glomeruli and ascended via the olfactory glomerular tract to the lateral protocerebrum. A parallel projection pathway is constituted by projection neurons of the accessory lobe, a glomerular neuropil without afferent innervation but intimate links to the OL. The projection neuron somata constituted the lateral soma cluster (200000 somata).Abbreviations

Summary The neuroarchitecture of the central complex, a prominent neuropil in the midbrain of the holometabolan, Tenebrio molitor, is described throughout larval development. The analysis is based on classical silver impregnations and on fate-mapping of identified neurons using antisera against serotonin and FMRF-amide. In T. molitor, the central body is present in the first larval instar, and is formed by side branches of contralaterally projecting neurons. Glial cells surround eight neuropil compartments in the first larval instar. These subdivisions in the organization of the fan-shaped body are maintained throughout development. Intrinsic interneurons are found from the 5th larval instar onwards. In the last larval stage, the central complex consists of the fan-shaped body, the protocerebral bridge, and the anlage of the ellipsoid body. The cellular architecture of the fan-shaped body of the last larval instar resembles the basic structural characteristics of the adult. Serotonin-immunoreactive neurons and FMRF-amide immunoreactive neurons in the midbrain of the first larval instar show the basic structural features of the respective imaginal cells. The structural organizations of larval and adult midbrain are compared.Abbreviations

During courtship sequences male grasshoppers of the species Omocestus viridulus successively perform with their hindlegs three different stridulatory movement patterns: ordinary stridulation, hindleg shaking
and precopulatory movements. Microinjection of acetylcholine into protocerebral neuropil regions can either elicit complete
courtship sequences or evoke one of the three motor patterns. Intracellular recordings and stainings revealed three types
of descending brain neurons: B-DC-3, B-DC-4 and B-DC-5. All three types of interneurons have a medial axon position in the
connectives. They cross the midline of the protocerebrum and exhibit a profuse arborization pattern within the medial dorsal
protocerebral neuropil. Stimulation of each type of interneuron specifically elicits one particular motor pattern of courtship
behaviour. Courtship of the grasshopper O. viridulus may therefore be controlled by successive activation of these descending brain neurons.

Serotonin-immunoreactive neurons in the median protocerebrum and suboesophageal ganglion of the sphinx moth Manduca sexta 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Summary Serotonin-immunoreactive neurons in the median protocerebrum and suboesophageal ganglion of the sphinx moth Manduca sexta were individually reconstructed. Serotonin immunoreactivity was detected in 19–20 bilaterally symmetrical pairs of interneurons in the midbrain and 10 pairs in the suboesophageal ganglion. These neurons were also immunoreactive with antisera against DOPA decarboxylase. All major neuropil regions except the protocerebral bridge are innervated by these neurons. In addition, efferent cells are serotonin-immunoreactive in the frontal ganglion (5 neurons) and the suboesophageal ganglion (2 pairs of neurons). The latter cells probably give rise to an extensive network of immunoreactive terminals on the surface of the suboesophageal ganglion and suboesophageal nerves. Most of the serotonin-immunoreactive neurons show a gradient in the intensity of immunoreactive staining, suggesting low levels of serotonin in cell bodies and dendritic arbors and highest concentrations in axonal terminals. Serotonin-immunoreactive cells often occur in pairs with similar morphological features. With one exception, all serotonin-immunoreactive neurons have bilateral projections with at least some arborizations in identical neuropil areas in both hemispheres. The morphology of several neurons suggests that they are part of neuronal feedback circuits. The similarity in the arborization patterns of serotonin-immunoreactive neurons raises the possibility that their outgrowing neurites experienced similar forces during embryonic development. The morphological similarities further suggest that serotonin-immunoreactive interneurons in the midbrain and suboesophageal ganglion share physiological characteristics.Abbreviations

Several aspects of locomotor control have been ascribed to the central complex of the insect brain; however, the role of distinct substructures of this complex is not well known. The tay bridge1 (tay1) mutant of Drosophila melanogaster was originally isolated on the basis of reduced walking speed and activity. In addition, tay1 is defective in the compensation of rotatory stimuli during walking and histologically, tay1 causes a mid-sagittal constriction of the protocerebral bridge, a constituent of the central complex. Cloning of the tay gene revealed that it encodes a novel protein with no significant homology to any known protein. To associate the behavioral phenotypes with the anatomical defect in the protocerebral bridge, we used different driver lines to express the tay cDNA in various neuronal subpopulations of the central brain in tay1-mutant flies. These experiments showed an association of the aberrant walking speed and activity with the structural defect in the protocerebral bridge. In contrast, the compensation of rotatory stimuli during walking was rescued without a restoration of the protocerebral bridge. The results of our differential rescue approach are supported by neuronal silencing experiments using conditional tetanus toxin expression in the same subset of neurons. These findings show for the first time that the walking speed and activity is controlled by different substructures of the central brain than the compensatory locomotion for rotatory stimuli. 相似文献
