    Abstract Sea urchin eggs fixed in a glutaraldehyde-calcium chloride mixture have "micropapillae" with a dense content. If these structures are real, they are likely to be sites where a fusion with the spermatozoon can take place. It is possible however that they represent some kind of preparation artefact without a structural counterpart in the living state.

    Abstract Livers from chickens, rats, mongrel dogs, Dalmatian dogs, and man have been examined in the electron microscope in order to compare the microbodies with the known content of uricase. It is concluded that microbodies with inclusion are present in rats, mongrel dogs, and, although the inclusion generally is smaller, in Dalmatian dogs. The inclusion has a characteristic structural appearance. These species (rat, dog) have uricase. Chickens and man lack both the enzyme uricase and the microbody inclusion. This evidence and that from previously published electron micrographs in the literature on microbodies support the notion of a positive correlation between uricase and microbodies with an inclusion. It is recommended that the term "uricosome" be used for such microbodies that have an inclusion of the appearance here described.

    Abstract The unicellular organism, Noctiluca, has been examined with the electron microscope. The nucleus is small compared to the very large size of the cell, but the nuclear border has an organization which indicates an active nucleocytoplasmic exchange. Whereas annuli are missing over most parts of the nuclear membrane proper, there are "annulated vesicles" in a layer inside the nuclear membrane. The hypothesis is put forth that nuclear substances move through the annuli into these vesicles, and that the annulated vesicles themselves are transported through the nuclear membrane. The various forms of the annulated vesicles are consistent with this hypothesis. An implication of this postulate is the synthesis of annulated membranes inside a closed nucleus which are physically separate from the endoplasmic reticulum. The chromosomes are in a state resembling prophase chromosomes and are surrounded by granular masses. Only a small portion of the entire nuclear volume is occupied by the chromosomes. There are many nucleolus-like bodies.

    Abstract The nine microtubular doublets of cilia and flagella have distinctive features that make it possible to assign an index number to each of them. Such an indexing has been used for a long time for animal cilia and flagella, whereas other indexing systems have been proposed recently for plant cilia. It is shown here that the similarity between cilia from animals and cilia from plants and protists is so great that the same indexing system can be used for all cilia regardless of their derivation.

  6. Article: Cilia-related diseases.

    Abstract: ... organs ('a 50% risk of situs inversus'). Some genes are responsible for the synthesis, transport, and ...

    Abstract There are at least eight categories of cilia in the human body and malfunctioning of any one or several of them will have different consequences for the patient. A genetic error of the respiratory cilia (9 + 2) is the cause of the airways disease named immotile-cilia syndrome (or PCD), whereas defective ependymal cilia (9 + 2) carries an increased risk of hydrocephalus. When the so-called nodal cilia (9 + 0) of the early embryo are malfunctioning, there is a random determination of asymmetry of the heart and visceral organs ('a 50% risk of situs inversus'). Some genes are responsible for the synthesis, transport, and assembly of the cilia, and mutations in these genes may lead to progressive degeneration of ciliary structures, such as the connecting cilium (9 + 0) of the photoreceptor cells-this is the cause of retinitis pigmentosa. Ciliary malfunctions due to genetic errors tend to be systemic and life-long, whereas acquired diseases are local and may be temporary only.

  7. Article: Neutrophil migration and orientation under agarose: findings in patients with the immotile cilia syndrome and effects of cytochalasin B and vinblastine.

    Abstract This study has shown that the agarose technique is well suited for determination of whether impaired PMN migration is due to defective direction finding of deficient locomotive ability. By assessments of the degree of orientation of neutrophils together with measures of migration distances, we demonstrated that vinblastine treated normal neutrophils and PMNs from patients with the immotile cilia syndrome mainly move in a chemokinetic manner, whereas cytochalasin B hampers locomotive ability, but leaves direction finding intact. Hence, information whether chemotaxis or chemokinesis predominates is easily obtained in one single assay system.
