    Notes: Summary Two kinds of occluding junctions are found between ileal epithelial cells of suckling rats: apical zonulae occludentes (ZO) and fasciae occludentes (FO) which are associated with the lateral plasma membranes of many epithelial cells. In unfixed preparations, glycerol treatment induces the further proliferation of extensive fasciae occludentes. Both kinds of junction have identical structural elements when visualized in freeze fracture replicas, although the arrangement of these elements differs. Zonulae occludentes consist of networks of branching and anastomosing linear ridges or rows of ∼10 nm particles with 20–30 nm spaces between the rows which form narrow belt-like structures around the apical region of adjacent cells. Fasciae occludentes, on the other hand, consist of similar linear ridges or rows of particles but the junction strands are often discontinuous, open ended and only occasionally intersect with each other. Several different fracture planes through the plasma membrane in the region of the occluding junctions have been observed and these provide further evidence that two components, one from each membrane, fused at the level of the extracellular space, form the junction sealing element. Furthermore, we present evidence which indicates a staggered rather than an in-register arrangement of these two components.

    Notes: Summary The female zebrafish is capable of producing mature eggs on the fifth day of each reproductive cycle. During this five-day period the ultrastructure of hepatocytes undergoes several changes. The number of nuclear pores increases rapidly during spawning, followed by a proliferation of RER within 24 h. Two days after spawning, glycogen has disappeared and the liver contains large amounts of lipids. The lipid droplets are closely surrounded by elongated mitochondria. Golgi complexes are abundant, secreting dense bodies. Four days after spawning the hepatocytes tend to regain their pre-spawning appearance. It is suggested that the changes in the hepatocytes, which coincide with special phases of ovarian activity, are related to vitellogenin synthesis. Steroids, especially estradiol-17β, may trigger this process in the liver.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the neural sheath, glial cells and neurons in the brain of the neoimaginal male Chironomus riparius is described. The neural sheath comprises a neural lamella and underlying perineurium. The neural lamella consists of an amorphous matrix in which fine fibrils occur. The perineurium is composed of two cell types forming a continuous layer around the brain. The subjacent cortical layer, composed of the cell bodies of neurons and glial cells, varies considerably in thickness and surrounds the centrally located neuropiles. Three types of glial cells are distinguished on the basis of their positions and appearances. Five types of neurons are described which differ in size and relative frequency of organelles. Four types of axons, including those of neurosecretory cells, are distinguished by their size and content.

    Notes: Summary The development of ultrastructural changes in the T-system of isolated muscle fibres of the crayfish by the glycerol procedure is described in correlation with the dissociation of excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling as well as with recoupling of the E-C link. The sequence of events in the process of disconnection of the tubules is as follows: dilation of the T-system tubules, disconnection of the constricted tubular segments from the surface membrane and from the T-system vesicle, disappearance of the lumen and its disintegration. The decoupled state is characterised by the presence of round vesicles uniformly distributed in the entire volume of the fibre. The volume of vesicles accounts well for the residual postglycerol volume increase (15%) of the muscle fibres. Functional and structural recovery can be induced by reapplication of glycerol to fibres decoupled and vesiculated with concentrations of glycerol≦300mmol · l-1 in crayfish saline. The restitution starts with the organisation of the material of the disintegrated connecting segment of the T-system tubule into small vesicles which coalesce to form the tubule from the vesicular site. At the same time the surface membrane is invaginated toward the vesicle, thus forming the tubule from the surface membrane site. Recovery starts already in the first minute after application of glycerol and is completed within approximately 15min.

    Notes: Summary Electron microscopic studies were made of the regeneration of minced smooth muscle of the vas deferens of the guinea-pig 3 days to 15 weeks after operation. At 3–5 days the mince contained degenerating smooth muscle cells and dedifferentiating cells showing characteristics of embryonic smooth muscle cells: numerous free ribosomes, well developed rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus with few peripherally placed myofilaments associated with dense bodies. During the first two weeks of regeneration, scattered cells surrounded by debris and collagen were separated by a large extra-cellular space. After three weeks, extracellular space was reduced to near normal values. Regenerating cells had a shorter length than normal cells, but during later stages of regeneration they showed an increase in diameter. Muscle effector bundles began to form after 2 to 3 weeks. Initially there were large gaps between the muscle cells, but at later stages of bundle formation, the extracellular space between the muscle cells was much reduced. From 3 weeks, arterioles appeared between the smooth muscle bundles in the regenerating areas. Regeneration of individual smooth muscle cells was complete by 15 weeks after the operation.

    Notes: Summary Tissues that have the ultrastructural characteristics of nervous tissues are associated with ciliary and muscular elements of the pluteus larva of Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. The nerve cells are found along the margins of the ciliary bands, which are composed predominantly of spindle-shaped ciliated cells. The nerve cells contribute axonal processes to a tract of axons, which runs at the base of the ciliary band throughout its length. Axonal tracts, in the esophagus, lie beneath the circumesophageal muscles. Branched microvilli, which have been interpreted as sensory receptors, are located on the oral side of the main ciliary band and connect with the nerve cells in the ciliary band. The nervous structures described here, and other tissues of the pluteus that have been previously described as nervous, are compared on the basis of their association with receptor and effector organs, and their ultrastructural characteristics.

    Notes: Summary A new method combining electron microscopy with microdissection was used to study the segmental variation along the tubule of a marine flounder. Two different nephron types were present. One type had long tubules with the glomeruli located close to the kidney surface. The other type had shorter and more coiled tubules with the glomeruli located close to the terminal end of the same nephron. Five different segments were present: (1) neck segment, (2) first proximal segment, (3) second proximal segment, (4) third proximal segment, and (5) collecting tubule. The third proximal segment was not present in all tubules. An extensive system of infoldings from the plasma membrane was present in all segments, except the neck segment and the collecting tubule. Tight junctions impermeable to lanthanum were present in all segments. The collecting duct cells also had extensive infoldings from the plasma membrane and tight junctions impermeable to lanthanum were also present here.

    Notes: Summary The authors describe the ultrastructure of the juxtaglomerular apparatus in five adult male Cebus apella monkeys and communicate morphometric data of the macula densa. In comparison with several species of rodents examined before, the macula cells of the monkey contain many more mitochondria and possess a particularly thick basal membrane. The relative volume of the nuclei is slightly smaller than in rodents. The Goormaghtigh cells of the monkey resemble those of the other animals investigated. The epithelioid (or juxtaglomerular) cells do not contain secretory granules. This observation reminds one of the behavior of the epithelioid cells of guinea pigs.

    Notes: Summary The epidermis of D. tigrina was examined using the scanning electron microscope. Both dorsal and ventral surfaces are extremely irregular in contour, as well as being permeated by large numbers of pores. Cilia are restricted to the ventral surface, the auricles and that part of the dorsum adjacent to the auricles. Club-shaped receptors, as well as cilia, were seen in the auricles. The epidermis anteriad to the eyespots is indistinguishable from that covering the remainder of the dorsal surface. Light rays could not enter the eyespot through this rough epidermal surface without becoming diffracted in an irregular fashion. It was therefore concluded that visual image perception is not a function of the planarian eyespot.
