Experiments were undertaken to determine the tissue distribution of Escherichia coli and a coliphage after contamination of the common mussel (Mytilus edulis). Mussels were contaminated with high levels of feces-associated E. coli and a 22-nm icosahedral coliphage over a 2-day period in a flowing-seawater facility. After contamination, individual tissues were carefully dissected and assayed for E. coli and the coliphage. Contaminated mussels were also analyzed to determine the tissue distribution of the contaminants after 24- and 48-h depuration periods. The majority of each contaminant was located in the digestive tract (94 and 89% of E. coli and coliphage, respectively). Decreasing concentrations were found in the gills and labial palps, foot and muscles, mantle lobes, and hemolymph. Our results indicate that contamination above levels in water occurred only in the digestive tract. Contaminated mussels were depurated in a commercial-scale recirculating UV depuration system over a 48-h period. The percent reductions of E. coli occurred in the following order: digestive tract, hemolymph, foot and muscles, mantle lobes, and gills and labial palps. The percent reductions of the coliphage were different, occurring in the following order: hemolymph, foot and muscles, gills and labial palps, mantle lobes, and digestive tract. Our results clearly demonstrate that E. coli and the coliphage are differentially eliminated from the digestive tract. The two microorganisms are eliminated at similar rates from the remaining tissues. Our results also clearly show that the most significant coliphage retention after depuration for 48 h is in the digestive tract. Thus, conventional depuration practices are inappropriate for efficient virus elimination from mussels. 相似文献

Abstract. The adoral sense organ in bivalve molluscs is a paired ridge of specialized epithelium positioned laterally at the base of the labial palps near the mouth opening, clearly distinguishable from the surrounding epithelia. Six species of the protobranch order Nuculoida, and one species of Solemyoida, were investigated by light microscopy concerning presence, gross anatomy, and innervation of the adoral sense organ. The organ was described in detail for Nucula nucleus and N. nitidosa by transmission electron microscopy; in these two species, the organ was characterized as a pseudostratified epithelial thickening with specialized cells bearing a specialized microvillar border and a basal matrix with a lamellar layer. Three types of bipolar primary receptor cells were recognized and these were reconstructed for N. nucleus. Most of the receptor cells had 2 cilia orientated parallel to the cell surface; in addition, there were 2 types of supporting cells and 1 type of basal cell. The surrounding epithelial cells were narrow with short microvilli and lacked cilia. The homology of the organ within protobranch bivalves was suggested by a character-complex of (1) position, (2) dimension of the epithelium, (3) innervation, (4) pseudostratified construction, (5) dimension of the specialized microvillar border, (6) thickening of the basal matrix, and (7) presence of specialized cell types such as receptor cells. Despite the estimated high number of protobranch species there is only scant information available on the adoral sense organ from 24 species of 8 genera. Structures and receptor types that are similar to those found in the adoral sense organ are widespread in molluscs and other invertebrate groups; this may indicate a plesiomorphy of these characters rather than an apomorphy for the protobranch clade. Therefore, the adoral sense organ may be of minor phylogenetic value above the level of protobranch orders. 相似文献

Abstract. The ultrastructure of the ciliary apparatus of multiciliated epidermal cells of the trochophore of Epimenia babai and the adult of Strophomenia scandens was studied. The trochal cirri of E. babai consists of long cilia with unspecialized tips. The surfaces between the trochs are sparsely covered with shorter cilia of similar structure except for length. In the adult of S. scandens , the foot is covered by a dense mat of cilia with blunt electron-dense tips. In both E. babai and S. scandens , all cilia have two perpendicularly orientated rootlets. This condition is similar to that of the Chaetodermomorpha (=Caudofoveata) and Polyplacophora. In other molluscs studied to date, the cilia of multiciliated epidermal cells have a single rootlet or a derivative thereof. The presence of two ciliary rootlets likely represents the basal plesiomorphic state for the Bilateria. The existence of this character in the Neomeniomorpha, Chaetodermomorpha, and Polyplacophora is congruent with the hypothesis of a basal position of these taxa within the Mollusca. 相似文献

Females and males of Rhinoglena frontalis (Monogononta, Epiphanidae) are observed by SEM and their external morphologies are compared. The two sexes differ in size and shape of the body. The female body is fusiform with a short, conical foot, while the male body is more slender and has a rather long foot. The rotatory apparatus (or corona) of both sexes is similar with only minor differences and consists of rows and tufts of cilia arranged around the mouth opening. The corona is made of two paired lobes lateral to the mouth and of a third prominent dorsal lobe, usually called proboscis. The three lobes are lined externally by dense rows of cilia, which constitute the cingulum, used for swimming. The central surface of the proboscis is covered with numerous longitudinal rows of cilia bent towards the mouth. The lateral lobes show, on their central surfaces, two concentric arcs of cirri (made of tightly packed cilia) bent towards the mouth. The similar organization of the rotatory apparatus of both sexes is related to the fact that the male, in this species, is able to feed and has a developed mastax and digestive system. The trophi of both sexes are illustrated and compared. 相似文献

Cilia and associated structures on the gill lamellae on the ctenidum of Chaetoderma nitidulum were studied. The gill cilia are very long and have a whip-like narrow portion distally, where only three microtubule doublets continue to the distal tip. In the transition zone between the cilium and the centriolar triplet section of the basal body there is a dense plate, an aggregation of granules and a ciliary necklace with four strands. Further down there is a short cross-striated basal foot and two conical cross-striated ciliary rootlets. The first rootlet is flattened and directed forward. It connects distally with the basal feet of other adjacent cilia. The second rootlet is rounded in cross-section and vertically directed. The epithelial structures of Chaetoderma show similarities with other Mollusca. We found no structural characters that could support the current hypothesis of a close relationship of Xenoturbella to the Mollusca. 相似文献

This paper describes the fine structure and its relationship to the direction of beat in four types of cilia on the gill of the fresh-water mussel Anodonta cataracta. The cilia contain nine outer, nine secondary, and two central fibers, such as have been described previously in other material. Each outer fiber is a doublet with one subfiber bearing arms. One particular pair of outer fibers (numbers 5 and 6) are joined together by a bridge. The two central fibers are enclosed by a central sheath; also present in this region is a single, small mid-fiber. The different groups of fibers are connected together by radial links that extend from the outer to the secondary fibers, and from the secondary fibers to the central sheath. The basal body consists of a cylinder of nine triplet fibers. Projecting from it on one side is a dense conical structure called the basal foot. The cylinder of outer fibers continues from the basal body into the cilium, passing through a complex transitional region in which five distinct changes of structure occur at different levels. There are two sets of fibers associated with the basal bodies: a pair of striated rootlets that extends from each basal body down into the cell, and a system of fine tubular fibers that runs parallel to the cell surface. The relationship between fine structure and direction of beat is the same in all four types of cilia examined. The plane of beat is perpendicular to the plane of the central fibers, with the effective stroke toward the bridge between outer fibers 5 and 6, and toward the foot on the basal body. 相似文献

Summary The ultrastructure of the ependymal cells in the area postrema of the domestic fowl was studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The ependymal surface of the area postrema is covered with many furrows and ridges. These ridges consist of ependymal cells aggregated in a fan-like shape. The ependymal cell lacks clustered cilia, microvilli are few, and a long basal process extends through the parenchymal layer of the area postrema. Within the cytoplasm as well as in the basal process, a spherical body with a diameter ranging from 1.5 to 2 gmm is occasionally observed.This work was supported by a Scientific Research Grant, No. 144017, from the Ministry of Education of Japan to Professor M.

Histological Characterization and Glucose Incorporation into Glycogen of the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas Storage Cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In order to investigate glycogen metabolism in the oyster Crassostrea gigas, the distribution of storage cells in the whole animal was studied before histological and biochemical characterization. These
cells were found mainly in the labial palps, the mantle, and gonadal area and also in gills and the digestive area. Storage
cells from palps, mantle, and gonad presented the same morphological features and the same seasonal glycogen variations. Storage
cells were isolated from the labial palps and the mantle plus gonadal area of the oyster by enzymatic dispersion and centrifugation
through discontinuous Percoll gradient. These cells have a modal density of 1.043 g/ml. An ultrastructural study confirmed
that glycogen is present in the cytoplasm either as fine particles or sequestered within vesicles. Glucose incorporation into
glycogen was evaluated in vitro using [U-14C]glucose: the incorporation in isolated cells increased linearly for at least 8 hours, was proportional to the cell concentration,
and showed saturation kinetics with respect to the exogenous glucose concentration.

A new genus and species of moths, Tanyglossus orectometopus n. gen. et sp. (Lepidoptera: Gracillarioidea), is described from mid-Cretaceous Myanmar amber. Autapomorphies for the new genus are small size (body length of only 0.9 mm), long proboscis greater than body length, presence of ocelli, 3-segmented porrect labial palps, 5-segmented curved maxillary palps, no eye cap, lanceolate wings with reduced venation and a body and wing covering of several types of scales. Based on the available characters, the fossil is placed in the small, aberrant family Douglasiidae and represents the first fossil member of this family. This study adds to our scant knowledge of the diversity of Mesozoic Glossata. 相似文献

Most naked basal bodies visualized in protargol stains on the surface of Tetrahymena are new basal bodies which have not yet developed cilia. The rarity of short cilia is explained by the rapid development of the ciliary shaft once it begins to grow. The high frequency of naked basal bodies (about 50 percent) in log cultures indicates that the interval between assembly of the basal body and the initiation of the cilium is long, approximately a full cell cycle. Naked basal bodies are more frequent in the mid and posterior parts of the cell and two or more naked basal bodies may be associated with one ciliated basal body in these regions. Daughter cells produced at division are apparently asymmetric with respect to their endowment of new and old organelles. 相似文献

The sensilla located on the antennae and maxillary and labial palps of the larvae of 64 beetle species from 22 families were studied using electron microscopy. The larvae of beetles living in different habitats and having different trophic specializations possess a uniform structure of the sensory organs. They are composed of two groups of sensilla on the apical and subapical segments of the antennae, one apical group of sensilla on both maxillary and labial palps, and one or several digitiform sensilla on the lateral surface of the maxillary and, occasionally, labial palp. The external morphology of the sensory organs is adaptive and represents modifications of the initial type. Band-shaped sensilla or placoid sensilla, clearly different from the initial sensory organs, appear in some taxa as rare exceptions, while other groups display either partial reduction of the receptor organs (Gyrinidae) or reduction of the cuticular parts of the sensilla (Cantharidae). 相似文献

Two kinds of cilia have been observed in the pharynx of Glossobalanus minutus Kowalewsky. From the present study, a ciliary specialization can be found in order to move a determinate substance, i.e. mucus or water. Mucus-moving cilia (type I cilia) have a single basal centriole and poorly developed ciliary rootlets. Their tips are rounded, bearing an inner, asymmetrical cap attached to some tubules. Water-moving cilia (type II cilia) are exclusively located at lateral epithelia of branchial bars, giving rise to the water current through the gills. They have two basal centrioles, proximal and distal, and a complex system of ciliary rootlets made up of a principal rootlet, a secondary or accessory rootlet and a 'fan' rootlet. The tips of type II cilia have a long process with some tubules inside. All basal structures are precisely orientated in order to assure a good coordination of ciliary beat. The possible functional significance of ciliary substructure is also discussed. From these observations a model for mucus and water currents through gill slits is postulated. 相似文献

The sensilla on labial palps in Locusta migratoria were observed and mapped using light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. A dome region on the tip of the fourth segment (distal segment) of labial palps is mainly covered with sensilla chaetica (about 98%), and few sensilla basiconica (2%). The total number of both types of sensilla is significantly higher in females than in males. Sensilla chaetica can be further subdivided into three groups containing 6, 7 or 10 neurons. Immunocytochemical localization of odorant-binding protein (OBP) and chemosensory proteins (CSPs) was performed on ultrathin sections of sensilla on labial palps. The antiserum against odorant-binding protein from Locusta migratoria (LmigOBP) only labelled sensilla basiconica, with gold granules only found in the sensillum lymph. Chemosensory protein instead was specifically present in the outer sensillum lymph of all three subgroups of sensilla chaetica with antiserum against CSP-I from Schistocerca gregaria (SgreCSP-I). In contrast these three subgroups were never labelled with antiserum against CSP-II from Locusta migratoria (LmigCSP-II). In addition, a few sensilla chaetica could not be stained with any of the antisera used. 相似文献

The various sensilla on the antennae and on the labial and maxillary palps of Blattella germanica (L.) were studied. Thick-walled chemoreceptors with fluted shafts and articulated bases are located on the antennae and on the labial and maxillary palps. Thin-walled chemoreceptors, without fluted shafts or articulated bases, are restricted to the flagellar segments of the antennae and to the distal segments of the palps. Antennae of adult males have more thin-walled chemoreceptors than do those of females. Hair-plate sensilla are found at the scape-head and scape-pedicel joints, and at the joints of segments on the palps. Campaniform sensilla are concentrated as a ring around the distal margin of the pedicel, and are also scattered singly on the scape, pedicel, and flagellar segments of the antennae, and on the first segment of the maxillary palps. Occasionally, a few sensilla coeloconica and cold receptor sensilla are found on the antennal flagellum. 相似文献

The labial palps and their sensilla of the peach fruit moth Carposina sasakii Matsumura, a serious pest of pome fruits in eastern Asia, were investigated using light microscopy and scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The labial palps are three‐segmented and exhibit distinct sexual dimorphism in length: much longer in the female than in the male. Four types of sensilla were found on the labial palps: campaniform, squamiform, chaetic and flattened sensilla. The campaniform sensilla are present on the first segment alone. The squamiform sensilla are located on all the three segments. The chaetic sensilla are mainly present on the third segment. The flattened sensilla are grooved with wall pores and situated in a labial palp‐pit organ, which is located at the apex of the distal segment of the labial palp. The sexual dimorphism of the labial palp and the labial palp‐pit organ was briefly discussed. 相似文献

The ciliated ependyma of the rat brain consists of a sheet of epithelial cells, the luminal surface of which is reflected over ciliary shafts and numerous evaginations of irregular dimensions. The relatively straight lateral portions of the plasmalemma of contiguous cells are fused at discrete sites to form five-layered junctions or zonulae occludentes which obliterate the intercellular space. These fusions occur usually at some distance below the free surface either independently or in continuity with a second intercellular junction, the zonula adhaerens. The luminal junction is usually formed by a zonula adhaerens or, occasionally, by a zonula occludens. The finely granular and filamentous cytoplasm contains supranuclear dense bodies, some of which are probably lysosomes and dense whorls of perinuclear filaments which send fascicles toward the lateral plasmalemma. The apical regions of the cytoplasm contain the basal body complexes of neighboring cilia. These complexes include a striated basal foot and short, non-striated rootlets emanating from the wall of each basal body. The rootlets end in a zone of granules about the proximal region of the basal body, adjacent to which may lie a striated mass of variable shape. All components of the basal body complex of adjacent cilia are independent of each other. 相似文献

To date, knowledge of the qualitative particle selection sites and conditions in the widely-distributed bivalve Crassostrea gigas is incomplete, having focussed either on heterogeneous particles, or on particles intentionally too large to enter the gill principal filament tracts. We used endoscope-directed sampling and the intact diatom-empty, cleaned frustule approach to unambiguously establish qualitative selection sites and the influence of seston quality (varying proportions of intact diatoms and empty, cleaned frustules) and quantity (particle loads) on the degree of qualitative selection. Normally-feeding oysters were presented test mixtures of the naturally-occurring Actinoptychus senarius (small enough to enter the gill principal filaments), and the potential selection sites (gill: dorsal and ventral collecting tracts; labial palps: anteriorly-deposited pseudofaeces), were sampled for comparison with the proportions and concentrations of the ambient medium. Qualitative selection was demonstrated at both the gills and labial palps. Gill selection efficiency was shown to be directly proportional to seston quality and quantity, using a technique independant of pseudofeces mucus content. The oyster gill is thus able to increase ingested food quality when environmental food quality is low and / or when seston concentrations are high, which is typical of oyster habitats. Palp selection efficiency was directly proportional to seston quality, but at the highest concentration tested, no qualitative selection was observed on the labial palps, probably due to overload on these smaller organs. The partial functional redundancy of these key processing organs in heterorhabdic species such as oysters and scallops may enhance their success in high-turbidity habitats. 相似文献

High voltage and conventional electron microscopy were used to investigate the ultrastructure of the ciliary apparatus in intact and in Triton-extracted, reactivated sheets of mucociliary epithelium isolated from newt lung. Each long (about 13 microns) ciliary axoneme terminates on a barrel-shaped basal body which is anchored in the apical cytoplasm by a variety of accessory structures. A basal foot is associated with the midpoint of each basal body and acts as a focal point for numerous microtubules (MTs). In many cases MTs can be seen to interconnect the feet of neighbouring basal bodies. Attached to the proximal end of each basal body and extending in a direction opposite the basal foot is a large 'ciliary root'. Each ciliary root is associated with a distinct bundle of 6-7 nm microfilaments which appear to stain with the specific F-actin probe NBD-phallacidin. A single 3-4 microns long striated rootlet inserts into each ciliary root and extends toward the cell nucleus through an extensive network of microfilaments. At the level of the basal plate 'Y-shaped' structures appear to connect each axonemal outer doublet MT to the plasma membrane. All of these ciliary accessory structures are present in the same relationship in Triton-extracted models. Their morphology and distribution indicates that they serve to anchor the cilia in the apical cytoplasm. In addition some of these structures appear to be responsible for maintaining the structural and functional integrity of the ciliary field in the demembranated and reactivated models. 相似文献
