    Notes: Summary The distribution and structure of the ureteric nerves in a small series of mammals was compared with that previously demonstrated in the rat. There was marked interspecies variation in the extent to which the nerves penetrated the wall of the ureter and in the degree of development of the deep submucous plexus. In animals with a highly developed deep submucous plexus, terminal arterioles frequently passed through the muscle coat before breaking up into capillaries. These vessels were surrounded by a fine periarteriolar plexus and were accompanied in their course through the muscle coat by one or more branches of the adventitial nerves. Intramuscular nerves not related to arterioles contained few axons with terminals classifiable as either adrenergic or cholinergic, and in animals in which the muscle cells were arranged in fascicles rather than in sheets, the nerves were typically interfascicular in position. As in the rat, only the periarteriolar plexuses contained large numbers of adrenergic axons. Cholinergic axons were generally few, but were not uncommon in the deep submucous plexus when this was well-developed. The majority of the terminals encountered in the intramural nerves contained variable and usually small numbers of both clear and large dense-cored vesicles. The relationship between these terminals and those defined in the submucous nerves of the rat ureter was discussed and it was suggested that the marked variations in the diameter of the axons in the terminal areas and in the number of vesicles in the terminals were related to the effects of the mechanical and other derangements which occur during processing.

    Notes: Summary The distribution and structure of the nerves supplying the muscle of the body of the bladder in mammals such as the mouse, guinea-pig, rabbit, cat and dog was compared with that previously demonstrated in the rat. The muscle of the arterioles located between the muscle bundles is innervated by a fine perivascular plexus and the nerves forming the muscular plexus can be divided into inter-and intra-fascicular components. Terminals containing variable but usually small numbers of clear and large dense-cored vesicles are particularly numerous in the interfascicular nerves and the intrafascicular nerves are characterised by large numbers of terminals with the features of those of cholinergic axons. In addition to many small clear vesicles, the cholinergic terminals contained some small dense-cored vesicles, and it is suggested that, as in the rat, these contain a second transmitter which is released with acetylcholine at the terminals during impulse transmission. Adrenergic terminals are more common in the muscular plexuses of the guinea-pig, dog and cat than in those of the other animals studied and there is evidence for the presence of two types of such terminal in the nerves. Of these, one contains a much smaller proportion of small vesicles with dense cores and many more large dense-cored vesicles than the second, and the possibility of a relationship between such terminals and those of short adrenergic neurones and neurones associated with non-adrenergic patterns of impulse transmission is discussed.

    Ultrastructure of the corneal nerves in the Rat (1976)

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the corneal nerves of the rat was studied in tissue fixed by immersion in and by perfusion with glutaraldehyde-containing fixatives. Of the four types of axonal terminal identified in the nerves, those with the features of adrenergic and cholinergic terminals were confined to the nerves at the limbus and were concentrated in the perivascular plexuses. The remaining two types of terminal were found on axons located in all parts of the cornea and on both intraepithelial axons and axons in the stromal nerves. Of these, one contained the numerous mitochondria which occur in the terminals of axons associated with known mechanoreceptors and the second contained variable and often small numbers of both clear and large dense-cored vesicles. While most of the mitochondria-containing terminals were seen in nerves located near the periphery, vesicle-containing terminals were numerous in all of the nerves, and especially in those in the avascular cornea. In material fixed by immersion in glutaraldehyde-paraformaldehyde, the vesicle-containing terminals appeared to be dilated, but in material fixed by perfusion there was little evidence of any increase in the diameter of the axons in the terminal regions. The structure of the terminals was compared with that of the terminals of axons identified in the nerves of the skin and the urinary tract and the differences in the vesicle content of the terminals to those reported in other studies of the corneal nerves was related to the use of different fixation procedures. The possibility that axons possessing such terminals are identical with the beaded axons and both the cholinesterase-positive and fluorescent axons demonstrated in light microscopical studies of the corneal nerves is discussed, and the widespread distribution of the axons in the cornea is equated with the hypothesis that they are afferent in nature and represent the peripheral receptors for pain impulses.

    The human foetal yolk sac (1969)

    Notes: Summary Specimens of human foetal yolk sac from conceptuses of 8 and 10 weeks menstrual age were studied with the electron microscope. At 8 weeks columns of endodermal cells projected into the underlying mesenchyme. Several types of endodermal cell were identified; some contained much granular endoplasmic reticulum and abundant glycogen; others resembled the haemocytoblasts present in the mesenchyme and yet others contained membrane-bounded channels similar to those seen in megakaryocytes. It was suggested that the endoderm is the site of origin of the blood cells but that, while the platelets may be formed within the endoderm, the normal development of the red cells is conditional upon their early release into the mesenchyme and possibly the attainment of an intravascular position. Intravascular macrophages were identified and their role in determining the nature of the blood picture during the period of functional acitvity of the sac discussed. The morphology of the epithelium on the external surface of the sac was discussed in relation to the possibility of its playing a part in the exchange of materials between the yolk sac and the chorionic cavity.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the vesicle-containing axon profiles in the myenteric ganglia of the guinea-pig stomach was studied in specimens fixed by vascular perfusion and in specimens fixed by immersion in cold fixative after incubation in 5-hydroxydopamine. Three major types of vesicle-containing axon profile were identified in the ganglia: 1. Profiles containing numerous small, mainly spherical vesicles and only limited numbers of large dense-cored vesicles. In perfusion-fixed specimens, the small vesicles in these profiles were all clear. In specimens fixed by immersion after incubation in 5-hydroxydopamine, the profiles could be divided into three types: a) profiles containing small clear vesicles; b) profiles containing small dense-cored vesicles; c) profiles in which the small vesicles contained a peripheral rim of dense material. In these profiles, large vesicles which contained dense cores were rare. The mean diameter of the vesicles in the profiles was also significantly higher than in the profiles containing small clear vesicles. 5. Profiles containing flattened membrane-bounded structures. Reconstructions prepared from serial sections suggested that these structures represented sections through networks of smooth endoplasmic reticulum-like tubules rather than flattened vesicles. 6. Profiles containing many large dense-cored vesicles and few small clear vesicles. In perfusion-fixed specimens, the diameter of the dense-cored vesicles in these profiles was significantly higher than in the type 1 profiles. Type 1 a and type 1 c profiles were much more numerous than either type 2 or type 3 profiles, and type 1 b profiles were few. Synaptic junctions were found in association only with type 1 a profiles. Type 1 a and type 1 b profiles resembled cholinergic and adrenergic axon terminals. The remaining profiles may represent the terminals of different forms of peptidergic axon or of other as yet unidentified types of axon.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the nerves forming the submucous plexus of cervical and thoracic parts of the trachea was studied in the guinea-pig. Specimens were obtained from 6 animals perfused with warm fixative and from 6 animals in which pieces of trachea were incubated in buffer containing 5-hydroxydopamine before being immersed in cold fixative. Of the two types of axonal terminal identified in the nerves, one contained mainly large dense-cored vesicles, and the second contained numerous small vesicles. In specimens incubated in 5-hydroxydopamine, the small vesicles of the latter terminals exhibited the electron-dense cores which are characteristic of adrenergic axonal terminals. Counts made on perfused specimens showed that, in both the thoracic and cervical parts of the trachea, the density of adrenergic terminals was higher than that of terminals containing mainly large dense-cored vesicles. Overall terminal density was, however, higher in the thoracic than in the cervical part of the trachea, and estimates of nerve size showed that this was associated with the presence in the thoracic plexus of a substantially greater proportion of nerves with less than 6 axons. The possible function of the nerves in the control of the calibre of the submucous blood vessels was discussed.
