Heat shock induced ultrastructural alterations in Stylonychia mytilus cells.
Fine structural observations on heat shocked cells of S. mytilus reveal that cell organelles undergo structural alterations. Mitochondria show distorted shapes with disorganized cristae and vacuolar spaces. Pulse heat shock results in dilated rough endoplasmic reticulum, abundant polysomes as well as smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Heat shocked cells show membrane bound bodies containing osmiophi...
متن کاملGravikinesis in Stylonychia mytilus is based on membrane potential changes.
The graviperception of the hypotrichous ciliate Stylonychia mytilus was investigated using electrophysiological methods and behavioural analysis. It is shown that Stylonychia can sense gravity and thereby compensates sedimentation rate by a negative gravikinesis. The graviresponse consists of a velocity-regulating physiological component (negative gravikinesis) and an additional orientational c...
متن کاملCadmium Induced Ultrastructural Changes in the Ciliate, Stylonychia Mytilus (ciliophora, Hypotrichida)
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed several ultrastructural changes induced by exposure to cadmium in ciliated protozoan, Stylonychia mytilus. The main cytoplasmic alterations in the post treated cells were:-condensation of the ground cytoplasm, mitochondrial disorganization, cytoplasmic vacuolization, accumulation of electron dense bodies and autophagosome formation. At the nuclear...
متن کاملMicrosurgically generated discontinuities provoke heritable changes in cellular handedness of a ciliate, Stylonychia mytilus.
Stylonychia mytilus is a dorsoventrally flattened ciliate with compound ciliary structures arranged in a specific manner on the cell surface. In mirror-image (MI) doublets of this ciliate, two nearly complete sets of ciliary structures are arrayed side-by-side, one in a normal or 'right-handed' (RH) arrangement, the other in a reversed or 'left-handed' (LH) arrangement. MI-doublets exist in two...
متن کاملProtective effect of interleukin-36 receptor antagonist on liver injury induced by concanavalin A in mice
Objective(s): Interleukin-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra) is a new member of the IL-1 family that exhibits anti-inflammatory activity in a variety of inflammatory and immune diseases. Our purpose was to determine the effect of IL-36Ra on liver injury in a mouse hepatitis model induced by concanavalin A (ConA). Materials and Methods: Mic...
