By means of scanning and transmissive electron microscopic methods osphradium of Siphonaria grisea has been studied. The osphradium of the animal is presented as a small torulus formed by supporting ciliated cells. Among them bodies of receptory cells are situated; they are of smaller size and decorated with a bundle of microvilli. Central processes of the receptory cells, penetrating through a thick layer of the connective tissue, reach the subepithelial neural trunk. Concentration of the neural cells in the periphery of the trunk is small, and in the central area no chemical synapses are revealed. The data presented demonstrate a primitive structure of the osphradial chemoreceptory organ in Siphonaria. 相似文献

The Murex saxatilis L. (Mollusca, Prosobranchia) osphradium is of the most complex "ctenidial" type and is situated immediately behind the siphon that brings water to the mantel cavity. By means of scanning and transmissive electron microscopical investigation, three zones have been revealed on the surface of the osphradium petals: secretory, intermediate and receptory. The secretory zone occupies the lateral part of the petal and is formed with 1-2 layers of cells. The intermediate zone, as a narrow stria, is situated between the secretory and the receptory zones. Here, together with the secretory cells, the ciliary cells are present. The receptory zone occupies nearly the whole surface of the petal. It is much thicker and is formed of pseudostratified epithelium where 5-7 raws of nuclei can be counted. Besides the cell types mentioned, there are defined bipolar receptory cells in it. The apical surface of the receptory cells has up to 200 cilia, and fine peripheral processes--1-2 cilia. Presence of the complex receptory zone makes it possible to suggest certain differentiation of the stimuli already at the peripheral level of the sensory system. 相似文献

The osphradium of molluscs is assumed to be a sensory organ. The present investigation in Lymnaea stagnalis has established two ultrastructurally different types of dendrites in the sensory epithelium. Cells immunoreactive to leucine-enkephalin and FMRFamide send processes to the sensory epithelium. These neurons of the osphradial ganglion are thus considered to be part of the sensory system, as are methionine-enkephalin-immunoreactive cells in the mantle wall in the vicinity of the osphradium. The complexity of the osphradial ganglion is further demonstrated by serotonin-immunoreactive neurons innervating the muscular coat around the osphradial canal and methionine-enkephalin-immunoreactive cells sending projections to the central nervous system. 相似文献

Summary The cellular organisation of the osphradium of Planorbarius as revealed by the previously described light microscope studies is confirmed in the present study. A third epithelial cell type, the basal cell, is described. Perception is carried out by dendritic processes from osphradial sensory neurones, forming free nerve-endings in the sensory region of the osphradial epithelium. Ciliated cells and secretory cells of the osphradial epithelium are concerned with the transport of material in the osphradial canal. Many of the ultrastructural features of molluscan central ganglia are present in the osphradial ganglion, including inter-axonal chemical synapses. Neuromuscular junctions are present in the sheath surrounding the organ and these may be involved in a behavioural response of the organ. The need for further electrophysiological studies is emphasised. 相似文献

Summary The pineal gland in the possum is represented by a thickening in the wall of the pineal recess. A superficial pineal body and a pineal stalk are characteristically lacking.The ependyma related to the gland is specialized but differs markedly from the lining in other circumventricular organs in form and in surface morphology. Two distinct topographic zones have been recognized. In the middle is a mass of cells which form a prominent knobby-surfaced central zone. These cells are characterized by the absence of cilia, the paucity of microvilli and blebs and the presence of processes which overlap adjacent cells. A surface pattern formed of cell outlines was lacking. It is suggested that the central zone is lined by pinealocytes, supporting cells and the processes of both cell types. Most of the central zone is surrounded by an intermediate zone of variable width. The latter region has been observed to possess a circumventricular organ-type surface morphology. It is sparsely ciliated, almost totally covered by a carpet of microvilli and it exhibits a variety of surface specializations. Supraependymal cells and various transitory supraependymal cell processes are also present.Outside the specialized ependyma is the peripheral zone which like the regular ventricular lining is densely ciliated. Supraependymal processes are found among the clusters of cilia, or rarely, on the surface of the ciliary bed.Season and sex related differences in surface ultrastructure were not observed. 相似文献

Summary The osphradium of Planorbarius consists of a blindly-ending ciliated canal, formed by an infolding of the mantle epithelium, and a basal ganglion of nerve cells which is comparable in complexity with ganglia of the central nervous system. The distribution of cell types in the osphradial epithelium is specialised so that three regions can be recognised; the ciliated, the secretory and the sensory regions. The basal sensory region of the canal epithelium consists of ciliated cells and is innervated by sensory neurones of the osphradial ganglion. The middle secretory region contains mainly of mucus-secreting cells and the epithelium adjacent to the osphradial aperture of ciliated cells and secretory cells of a second type. The sensory neurones of the osphradial ganglion are bipolar or of a modified monopolar type. Other monopolar neurones, similar to those common in the central nervous system are of non-sensory function. The osphradium of Paludina, although of typical prosobranch form, possesses ciliated pits similar to the single canal of Planorbarius, which may indicate a shared modality of receptor function. A definite function cannot be ascribed to the pulmonate osphradium based on morphological evidence alone. 相似文献

The vomeronasal epithelium of adult garter snakes (Thamnophis sirtalis and T. radix) was studied by light and electron microscopy. The sensory epithelium is extraordinarily thick, consisting of a supporting cell layer, a bipolar cell layer, and an undifferentiated cell layer. The supporting cell layer is situated along the luminal surface and includes supporting cells and the peripheral processes (dendrites) of bipolar neurons. The luminal surfaces of both supporting cells and bipolar neurons are covered with microvilli. Specializations of membrane junctions are always observed between adjacent cells in the subluminal region. Below the supporting cell layer, the epithelium is characterized by a columnar organization. Each column contains a population of bipolar neurons and undifferentiated cells. These cells are isolated from the underlying vascular and pigmented connective tissue by the presence of a thin sheath of satellite cells and a basal lamina. Heterogeneity of cell morphology occurs within each cell column. Generative and undifferentiated cells occupy the basal regions and mature neurons occupy the apical regions. Transitional changes in cell morphology occur within the depth of each cell column. These observations suggest that the vomeronasal cell column is the structural unit of the organ and may represent the dynamic unit for cell replacement as well. A sequential process of cell proliferation, neuronal differentiation, and maturation appears to occur in the epithelium despite the adult state of the animal. 相似文献

The sensory epithelium of the paratypanic organ (Vitali) was studied by means of the electron microscope. Two kinds of cells are present. One type extends from the basement membrane to the surface of the epithelium; their nuclei are arranged close to the connective tissue and are surrounded by a pale cytoplasm. The distal part of these cells, which are denser and richer in organelles, possess microvilli. The cells of the second type are located above the basement membrane and are found between the upper parts of the cells of the first type. Their cytoplasm is rich in small round vesicles, free ribosomes and cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum are present especially in the infranuclear zone. The apical part contains a Golgi apparatus lysosomes and multive sicular bodies. At the apex each cell possesses a cuticular plate numerous stereocilia and one kinocilium. The stereocilia become increasingly longer from one side of the cell surface to the other and the kinocilium is situated on the side where the stereocilia are longest. Nervous fibers are present in the epithelium and are in close contact with the cells of the second type. The cells we have described are remarkably similar to the supporting and hair cells of the vestibular sensory epithelium. 相似文献

Summary Ablation of the osphradium (a peripheral putative chemo-sensory organ) in Lymnaea stagnalis resulted in significant increase of egg-laying activity as compared with control animals (observed for 50 days). Cutting the osphradial nerve increased egg-laying to a lesser degree and only for the first 15–20 days. Water changes in the aquaria had a similar stimulating effect on egg-laying activity in both osphradium-deprived and control snails. Permanent aeration of the aquaria abolished this effect. Possible mechanisms of tonic inhibitory action of the osphradium on egg-laying are discussed. 相似文献

The trigeminal nerve has three motor roots and one sensory root in the cat. One of the motor roots can be divided into two bundles: the larger and the smaller. These motor roots form the common root with the sensory root at the exit from the pons, sometimes being separated partially by the subarachnoidal space between the medial and the ventral part of the common root. The mesencephalic root fibers are observed numerously in all the motor roots. Some degenerated fibers are observed in the sensory root. The transitional zone of the trigeminal nerve root between central and peripheral nervous system is occupied by interlocking processes of the fibrous astrocyte. 相似文献

The cellular organization and nervous supply of the basilar papilla in the lizard,Calotes versicolor
Dr. Dan Bagger-Sjöbäck 《Cell and tissue research》1976,165(2):141-156
Summary The basilar papilla of the lizard Calotes versicolor contains about 225 sensory cells. These are of two types: the short-haired type A cells in the ventral (apical) part of the organ, and the type B cells with long hair bundles, in the dorsal (basal) part of the organ. The type A cells are unidirectionally oriented and are covered by a tectorial membrane while the type B cells lack a covering structure and their hair bundles are oriented bidirectionally. Apart from those differences, the type A and type B cells are similar. They are columnar, and display the features common to most sensory cells in inner ear epithelia. The sensory cells are separated by supporting cells, which have long slender processes that keep the sensory cells apart. Close to the surface of the basilar papilla a terminal bar of specialized junctions interlocks adjacent cells. Below this, adjacent supporting cells are linked by an occluding junction.The cochlear nerve enters from the medial (neural) aspect. The fibres of the nerve lose their myelin sheaths as they enter the basilar papilla. Each sensory cell is associated with several nerve endings. All the nerves identified were afferent. Marked variations were seen between nerve endings in the basilar papilla, but no morphological equivalents of any functional differences were observed.This work is supported by grant no.

Ultrastructure of the supporting cells in the paratympanic organ of chicken,Gallus gallus domesticus
Riccardo Ruffoli Maria Anita Giambelluca Francesco Giannessi 《Journal of morphology》1998,236(1):65-73
The paratympanic organ is a specialized sensory organ of birds located in the medial wall of the tympanic cavity. It possesses a sensory epithelium formed by type II hair cells and supporting cells. The supporting cells are tall, narrow units that extend from the basement membrane to the free epithelial surface. They show a fine structure characterized by numerous mitochondria, a conspicuous Golgi complex and a well-developed RER. Moreover, some uncommon structures, probably formed by heaped RER cisternae, are frequently present in the cytoplasm. Adjacent supporting cells are connected by numerous and extensive gap junctions; moreover, small gap junctions between hair cell and supporting cells are to be found. The possible mechanical and metabolical functions of the paratympanic organ supporting cells are discussed. J. Morphol. 236:65–73, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

A study has been made of the ability of ciliated pharengial cells of Rana temporaria L. to repair heat injury. The heat injury estimated by cessation of cellular motile activity has been shown to repair, ciliar movements being renewed. The reparation of the ciliar function is due to the restoration of nativity of the intracellular protein structures providing for the ciliar motility. These structures can be repaired only when they are a component of the whole living cell system; they are not capable of spontaneous renativation, however, when isolated as "glycerinized cell models". It is suggested that the reparation of heat injury in these cells is an active process, presumably dependent on the intracellular metabolism. 相似文献

The ultrastructure of the temporal organ of the Japanese house centipede, Thereuonema hilgendorfi Verhoeff (Chilopoda), has been examined. The temporal organ of this species is known to be a carbon dioxide receptor. It appears externally as a small protuberance with a small opening (5 μm) on its summit. There is a small cuticle-lined cavity beneath the protuberance, and a mushroom-shaped projection protrudes from the base of the cavity into its interior. Below the cavity is an encapsulated, bulb-shaped cellular mass (sensory bulb), which contains about ten receptor cells and 100 supporting cells. Nuclei of both receptor and supporting cells occur basally in the sensory bulb. Each receptor cell has a single dendrite, which gives rise to a pair of sensory cilia. The cilia enter the mushroom-shaped projection, and course along the inner surface of its calyx. The supporting cells have distal processes, which accompany the cilia into the calyx. The surface cuticle of the calyx consists of a fabric of fibrils, but in not layered like the cuticular integument. The fabric is permeable to water. The observed structure is discussed in relation to carbon dioxide reception and in comparison with the structure of olfactory receptors and hygroreceptors. 相似文献

The histologic and cytologic structure of the boring organ of Thais lapillus has been studied with both light and electron microscopy. The organ evaginates from the foot and has a dome-like form. It has a spongy center which contain nerves, muscles and blood vessels, these originate in the foot and continue into the boring organ via a short stalk. The organ is invested externally by a continuous simple epithelium constituted of extremely elongated cells (150 to 300 mu). There are three radial zones from the basal to the apical aspect of the cells : basally the cells are overlapping, here are located the nuclei, the Golgi apparatus, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and secretory granules; organelles which in their character suggest a secretory function for these cells. In the middle zone cells are separated into "groups" by large spaces occupied by blood sinuses; at this level are located numerous elongated mitochondria with closely apposed, angulated cristae. In addition there are microtubules arranged parallel to the main cellular axis, whose role may be to facilitate rapid transit of secretory granules from the basal to the apical zone of the epithelium. In the apical zone the cells expand in tightly interdigitating folds, having a height of 2 mu, which are joined together by junctions of various types. This zone is the only junctional area between the epithelial cells of this expanding and contracting boring organ. A network of microfilaments which penetrates the cellular folds at this level, probably plays an important role in the invagination of the organ. Finally at the apex, the epithelial cells have a high "brush border" of long microvilli whose plasmalemma is coated internally by particulate subunits of 30 A. This peculiarity may be an other fact to support the hypothesis that hydrogen ions are emited by these cells, by the action of carbonic anhydrase located perhaps in these subunits. 相似文献

Fetal and early post-natal development of the human spleen: from primordial arterial B cell lobules to a non-segmented organ 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Immunohistological analysis of 31 human spleens from the 11th week of gestation to the early postnatal period suggested that
fetal organ development may be preliminarily divided into four stages. At stage 0 the organ anlage contained erythrocyte precursors,
few macrophages and almost no lymphocytes. Fetal spleens of stage I exhibited arterial vascular lobules and lymphocytes just
began colonizing the organ. At stage II, B and T lymphocytes formed periarteriolar clusters. B cell clusters predominated,
because B cells aggregated around the more peripheral branches of splenic arterioles, while T cells occupied the more centrally
located parts of the vessels. The vascular lobules of stage I and II consisted of central arterioles surrounded by B cells,
capillaries and peripheral venules. The lobular architecture slowly dissolved at late stage II when sinuses grew out from
the peripheral venules into the centre of the lobule. Interestingly, the B cell accumulations around peripheral arterioles
did not represent the precursors of follicles, but apparently persisted as periarteriolar B cell clusters in the adult splenic
red pulp, while follicles containing FDCs developed at late stage II from B cells in direct contact to T cell clusters around
larger arterial vessels. At stage III before birth the lobular architecture was no longer recognized. The chemokine CXCL13
was already present in vascular smooth muscle and adjacent stromal cells at stage I before B cells immigrated. CCL21, on the
contrary, was only demonstrated in fibroblast-like cells supporting T cell clusters from stage II onwards. 相似文献

The morphological changes of the tectorial membrane (TM) during the postnatal development (0, 3, 6, 12 and 25 day old) of the organ of Corti were studied by light microscopy in 20 control and hypothyroid rats. Hypothyroidism was induced by daily administration of propylthioruracil (PTU) until the end of lactation. The auditive receptor in the cochlea of the hypothyroid animals shows serious structural alterations compared with those of normal ones: abnormal persistence of K?lliker's organ, immaturity of sensory cells and supporting cells and a specific distortion of the TM. Differences with controls were first observed on the sixth postnatal day of the hypothyroid rats. The inner spiral sulcus was not shaped and the TM was attached to the K?lliker's organ. In older stages (12 and 25 days), K?lliker's organ was still present. The TM acquired a shap hump with an abnormal fibrillar arrangement in its middle part. It was still attached to the outer supporting cells by a remnant of the marginal net. It was suggested that the TM is secreted by the inner spiral limbus and K?lliker's organ. An abnormal persistence of these structures in the hypothyroidism results in a retardation of Corti's organ development. However, this conclusion does not explain the absence of the outer portion of the TM. Our study confirms the hypothesis that the secretion of any components of the marginal zone of TM is made by outer supporting cells which in PTU-treated animals appear very immature and with hypoplasia. 相似文献

The ultrastructure of the supporting cells in the chemoreceptor areas of the tentacles of Pomatias elegans and Helix pomatia is very similar. Complex apical structures are present, and the lateral plasma membrane exhibits three zones: (1) a zone of slight interdigitations; (2) a zone characterized by longitudinal plicae; (3) a zone of basal radiculae. The portions of the sensory cells located within the epithelial layer are accommodated in longitudinal grooves in the supporting cells. However, there are also differences. In Pomatias elegans the apical surface is differentiated into long microvilli that are sometimes dichotomously branched and invested by a surface coat along their entire length. Cytofilia and cilia of the sensory cells pass through this layer of microvilli and surface coat throughout its entire width. In Helix pomatia the supporting cells are somewhat smaller and the apical differentiation consists of candelabra-like protrusions, which are usually three times dichotomously branched. The final branchings, corresponding to microvilli, are called terminal twigs. They are covered by a surface coat, which forms a feltwork. The cytofilia and cilia of the sensory cells that intertwine among the protrusions are confined to the space below the terminal twigs, where they compose the spongy layer. 相似文献

The bushy receptors of the frog urinary bladder respond to the effect of 60-minute-long anoxia with a complex combination of morphological. tinctorial and electrophysiological reactions. A biphase change in dynamics of bioelectrical activity takes place (an initial increase of frequency with its successive decrease), prolongation of the vital staining periods with methylene blue, change in the character of staining and decoloration of the receptory plates: increase in homogeneity and in intensity of staining, discontinuance of granuloformation and weakening of processes of the plates mobility. The ultrastructural changes are mainly concerned with mitochondria, where either crists reduce and osmiophility decreases, or increases. A part of mitochondria does not change. Certain heterogeneity in reactive changes of the receptors is noted. This is considered as manifestation of functional heterogeneity of the receptory units and their structural elements. 相似文献

Summary This study of the ultrastructure of the auditory sensilla of the New Zealand weta, Hemideina crassidens, is the first such study on a member of the orthopteran Superfamily Gryllacridoidea. Ultrastructure of the auditory sensilla is similar in all of the tibial mechanosensory organs, here called subgenual organ, intermediate organ and crista acoustica by analogy with comparable structures in Tettigoniidae.Distal to each sensory soma is a dendrite containing multiple ciliary rootlets that fuse into a single ciliary root. This splits into nine root processes that pass around the outside of the proximal basal body and then rejoin at the level of the distal basal body, distal to which the dendrite has a modified ciliary structure with a circlet of nine peripheral paired tubes and rods as it passes through the proximal extracellular space. It is then enclosed by a zone of scolopale cell cytoplasm before expanding into a dilatation within the distal extracellular space. In some sensilla this space is partially occluded by electron dense material which is part of the scolopale cell. Distal to the dilatation the cilium shrinks and ends surrounded by the scolopale cap.Accessory cells consist of glia enwrapping the sensory neuron in the region of its soma, the scolopale cell surrounding the ciliary portion of the dendrite, and the attachment cell surrounding the scolopale cell and scolopale cap and connected to them by desmosomes. The attachment cells are filled with microtubules in differing densities and orientations. Lamellae are present in the acellular matrix surrounding the attachment cells. Banded fibres, presumably of collagen, are also present in the matrix. 相似文献
