    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les organes sensoriels cutanés de type ampullaire, spécifiques du système de la ligne latérale chez Gymnotus carapo, sont étudiés ici sous leur aspect morphologique et histochimique. Cellules sensorielles et cellules accessoires constituent un épithélium simple tapissant l'ampoule. Innervée par une seule fibre se terminant par un énorme bouton terminal, chaque cellule sensorielle a une surface libre importante, en contact avec les substances muqueuses qui remplissent l'ampoule et le canal intraépidermique. Les cellules accessoires de l'epithélium sensoriel et les cellules de la paroi du canal sont secrétrices des mucopolysaccharides neutres du canal.
    Notes: Summary The specific cutaneous organs of the lateral line system in Gymnotus carapo have been observed by morphological and histochemical methods. The ampullary epithelium is constituted by a layer of sensory and accessory cells. Each sensory cell is innervated by one fiber ending with a large terminal bud. The sensory cells have also an important free surface in contact with the mucoïd substances which fill up the ampullae and the intraepidermic canal. The accessory cells of the ampullary epithelium and the cells of the canal's wall produce the canal's neutral mucopolysaccharids.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'épithélium bronchiolaire humain a été étudié sur 3 biopsies pulmonaires. Quatre types cellulaires principaux peuvent être identifiés. 1. Des cellules ciliées en tous points identiques à celles présentes sur toute la hauteur de l'arbre respiratoire. 2. Des cellules non ciliées, les unes possédant des caractères sécrétoires et correspondant aux cellules de Clara, les autres cubiques, très distales, et apparentées aux pneumocytes granuleux. 3. Des cellules ≪à brosse≫ caractérisées par la présence à leur pôle apical de microvillosités ayant conduit à leur supposer un rôle d'absorption ou de réception sensorielle. En fait, la présence de nombreux corpuscules basaux pourrait les faire interpréter comme des cellules ciliées en voie de différenciation. 4. Des cellules de type chromaffine situées contre la membrane basale et contenant des grains denses entourés d'un halo clair, posant les mêmes problèmes que celles du tube digestif.
    Notes: Summary The human bronchiolar epithelium was studied on three lung biopsies. Four main types of cells were identified: 1. Ciliated cells in every respect identical to those present in the whole respiratory tree. 2. Non-ciliated cells, some with secretory features, corresponding to the Clara cells, the others cuboidal, distally situated, and related to the granular pneumocytes. 3. Brush cells characterized by peculiar apical microvilli. The authors assume that these cells have an absorptive or a sensorial function. Actually the demonstration of numerous basal corpuscles in their apical pole might lead to interprete them as ciliated cells in course of differentiation. 4. Chromaffine-type cells resting on the basement membrane and containing dense granules with a light halo, raising the same questions as the corresponding cells of the digestive tract.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Das Pinealorgan (Epiphysis cerebri) des Knochenfisches Pterophyllum scalare besteht aus nervösen und gliösen Zellelementen. Sehr stark ausgebildet sind die ependymalen Stützzellen. Sie umhüllen mit ihren Ausläufern, die sich überlappen können, andere Zellelemente, z.B. Rezeptorzellen und marklose Nervenfasern. Neben dieser Neuroglia-Art finden sich auch noch oligodendrocytenähnliche Gliazellen. In ihrer Grundstruktur entsprechen die Rezeptoren den Epiphysensinneszellen anderer Knochenfische. Vom cilientragenden Teil des Außenglieds geht ein schürzenartiger Lamellenstapel aus. Dieser besteht aus 50–70 Lamellenplatten von etwa 6 μm Länge. Im basalen Teil der Rezeptorzelle sind neben schlanken Mitochondrien mit unregelmäßigen Cristae und Tubuli auch noch große, runde Mitochondrien mit einer regelmäßigen Cristastruktur zu beobachten. Der basale Fortsatz der Rezeptorzelle ist auf die axial verlaufenden Axonbündel ausgerichtet. Synapsenartige Kontakte sind selten. Die Zahl der marklosen Axone nimmt hirnwärts zu; dieser Befund wurde in partiellen Rekonstruktionen gesichert. Am Übergang in den Epiphysenstiel treten einige markhaltige Axone auf. Zur Verteilung der Zelltypen und zum Verlauf der Axonbündel im Epiphysenstiel des Skalars liegen detailliertere Angaben vor als bei anderen bisher untersuchten Knochenfischepiphysen. In der Diskussion werden nach Vergleich der pinealen Rezeptoren verschiedener Fische drei Außengliedformen unterschieden: Bürsten-, Schürzen- und Kappentyp. Diese Varianten werden in Verbindung mit den bekannten physiologischen Reaktionsformen der Pinealorgane diskutiert. Die elektrophysio logischen Unterschiede lassen sich nicht mit verschiedenen Strukturtypen des Außenglieds erklären.
    Notes: Summary The pineal organ (epiphysis cerebri) of Pterophyllum scalare is formed by neuronal and glial elements. Ependymal supportive cells are very abundant, and their cytoplasmic processes envelop adjacent receptor cells and unmyelinated nerve fibers by an intertwining network. In addition to this type of neuroglia, oligodendrocytic cells have also been identified. The receptor cells show the general structural pattern (outer segment, inner segment, basal process) of teleostean pineal receptors. The ciliary part of the outer segment bears a dome-like stack of 50–70 curved saccules each of average length of 6 μm. In the basal part of the receptor cell, slender mitochondria containing irregular cristae and tubules, and also some more spherical mitochondria with a highly regular arrangement of cristae, can be observed. The basal cytoplasmic process radiates into neuropile-like areas that contain axial bundles of axons. Synaptoid contacts rarely occur. The number of unmyelinated axons of the pineal stalk, increases in a proximad direction (towards the brain). This finding has been verified in partial reconstructions. In the transitional zone leading from the pineal body into the pineal stalk, a few myelinated fibers become visible. With respect to cell types and the axonic bundles of the pineal stalk in Pterophyllum scalare, more detailed data are presented than for most other teleostean pineal organs examined thus far. The comparison of pineal sensory cells in several fishes allows a distinction among three different types of outer segments, i.e., a slender type, a dome-like type, and a cap-like type. These structural types are discussed with respect to the relevant physiological results. The existence of particular structural types of the outer segment does not explain the different electrophysiological reactions observed in different pineal organs.

    Notes: Summary The posterior salivary gland of Octopods comprises a parenchyma of branching tubules in a connective tissue stroma. The tubules are lined by either of two distinct epithelia.Type A is composed predominantly of columnar cells containing large granules whose contents vary in appearance from cell to cell.Type B consists of three cell types: A circumferential layer of processes ofstriated cells containing radially orientated infoldings of the cellular membrane, between which are packed numerous mitochondria;cistern cells which contain an invaginated system of membrane loops, the interior of which is in communication with the lumen; andlumen lining cells. All these cells send processes to the basement membrane of the tubule, so that both epithelia are pseudostratified. The functional significance of this cytological specialisation is discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Das Nebennierenmark der Ratte wurde nach Anwendung verschiedener Fixationsmethoden untersucht. Nach Immersionsfixation mit Glutaraldehyd oder Osmiumtetroxyd finden sich in der Nebenniere sog. Mischzellen, helle Zellen, syncytiale oder plasmodiale Zellen, die von den Untersuchern als Artefaktbildungen angesehen werden. In allen Proben nach Perfusionsfixation wurden solche Artefaktbildungen niemals beobachtet. Bei Immersionsfixation wurde eine enge Beziehung zwischen Sekretgranula und Cytoplasmamembran beobachtet, was bei Perfusionsfixation selten der Fall war. Die heutigen Theorien über den Sekretionsmechanismus bei Nebennierenmarkzellen werden aufgrund der vorgelegten Ergebnisse diskutiert. Die Arbeit zeigt die wesentlichen Vorteile der Anwendung der Perfusionsfixation für die Untersuchung der Nebenniere.
    Notes: Summary The adrenal medulla of the rat was studied utilizing various methods of fixation. In adrenal medulla specimens after immersion fixation either with glutaraldehyde or osmium tetroxide, elements such as mixed, clear, syncytial, or plasmodial cells, believed to be of artifactual origin, are observed in all of this material examined. These elements are absent in the specimens prepared by perfusion fixation. In specimens prepared by immersion fixation, secretory granules are found in close proximity to the plasma membrane; this localization is infrequent after perfusion fixation. Current theories of the mechanism of secretion of adrenal medullary hormones are discussed on the basis of our results. This investigation demonstrates the advantage and necessity of perfusion fixation in the study of the adrenal medulla.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of adenohypophysial cells in the Atlantic hagfish (Myxine glutinosa) is described and the morphological evidence for secretory activity is discussed. A scarcity of secretory granules is characteristic of the adenohypophysis of Myxine. Two cell types having the appearance of protein hormone producing cells can be identified. Type 1 has dense membrane-bound granules with a calculated mean diameter of 88 nm while type 2 has larger granules with a mean diameter of 176 nm. The release of secretory granular material follows mainly the “membrane-release” pattern. It is suggested that cell type 1 may produce a hormone which is similar to ACTH/MSH and type 2 another hormone similar to STH/LTH. The basophilic cells contain a secretory material which is similar to the mucus produced in the epithelial mucus cells. Several structural modifications are considered to represent functional compensations for the absence of vascular elements in the gland. Among these are a cytoplasmic tubular system, certain long agranular cells together with long granule-containing projections from cell types 1 and 2, and foliate or finger-like invaginations of the basal lamina.

    Notes: Summary The fine structure of the various hormone-producing cell types (with the exclusion of the prolactin cells) in the pituitary gland (pars distalis) of migratory sockeye salmon is described. All fish were in an advanced stage of sexual maturation. In the proximal pars distalis five cell types were distinguished: growth hormone cells, ACTH cells, gonadotrops, “vesicular cells”, and “chromophobe cells”. Gonadotrops were also found throughout the rostral pars distalis. A conspicuous feature of the gonadotrops was the presence of two kinds of secretory inclusions: small electron-dense granules (200–375 mμ) and large, relatively electron-translucent globules (400–2 000 mμ). The large vesicular cells, so called because of their conspicuous vesicular endoplasmic reticulum, were numerous and often appeared to contain some small granules. It is argued that they may represent a second type of gonadotropic cell, which, in earlier stages of gonad development, contains many granules but becomes largely degranulated near the time of reproduction when the other gonadotrops (“globular gonadotrops”) abound. The chromophobes, which were smaller and far less abundant than the vesicular cells, also appeared to contain small granules (120–280 mμ). They are probably thyrotrops.

    Notes: Summary The fine structure of the ultimobranchial (UB) glands of two common laboratory urodeles, viz., larval axolotls, Ambystoma mexicanum Shaw and adult Pleurodeles waltlii Micahelles, is described and compared in what is believed to be the first ultrastructural report on urodele UB glands. The axolotl UB gland shows a wide variety of form, being represented by an elongated diffuse series of follicles and sometimes by one or two large discrete terminal follicular bodies. In these axolotl UB glands up to four cell categories are distinguishable including a tonofilamentous cell and a secretory cell that is possibly homologous with calcitonin-producing C cells of anurans or other vertebrates. These two cell categories are also found in the Pleurodeles gland. The possible significance of the various cells is considered.

    Notes: Summary The structure and fine structure of the pars distalis hypophyseos was examined in five species of Tilapia fishes (T. alcalica, T. grahami, T. leucosticta, T. zillii, T. nigra) which were collected from lakes of a wide range of salinities. The pars distalis in all the species is composed of 5 granulated (“secretory”) and 1 chromophobic cell types. The rostral pars distalis prolactin cells appear most numerous and active in the fresh water species and smaller and least active in the “soda” lake fish. The evidence from nuclear measurements suggests that the species adapted to hyposmotic media have compensated for the freshwater environment (and the subsequent need for greater prolactin secretion) by increasing the number of prolactin cells rather than by increasing the synthetic activity of individual cells. In “soda” lake species which were acclimated to fresh water the prolactin cells are markedly hyperactive and degranulated when compared with any other group. The ACTH cells appear more active in the “soda” lake species than in the fresh water groups, however, these cells are maximally active in “soda” lake fish acclimated to fresh water. The rostral pars distalis stellate cells are described and discussed in relation to their possible involvement in the release of hormone from the pars distalis “secretory” cells. The proximal pars distalis somatotrophs appear active in all the species investigated although they were maximally active in fresh water acclimated “soda” lake species. The structure of the proximal pars distalis gonadotrophs and thyrotrophs is variable both within the same animal and between the species but the variation is not consistent with environmental salinity parameters. The means by which granules are released from the different cell types is discussed. The work was supported by grants in aid of research from SRC (J.F.L), University of Nairobi (J. F. L. and M. H), NRC (J.F.L.), USPMS (AM 13795, J. N. B.), Munitarp Foundation (M. H.) and by a travel scholarship from the Royal Society (J.F.L.). The paper is number 091 in the physiology of migration series.
