Muscle fibres and efferent nerves in a crustacean receptor muscle
The accessory flexor muscle of the crab myochordotonal organ consists of two kinds of muscle-fibres. In one type the fibrillar material has a uniform punctate appearance in cross-section. The Z bands are often broken across the fibre width and are spaced 2 to 3/n apart. These resemble the 'Fibrillenstruktur' muscle of vertebrates. In the second fibre type the fibrillar material appears as large...
متن کاملNetrin/DCC signaling controls contralateral dendrites of octavolateralis efferent neurons.
The guidance molecule Netrin and its receptor DCC (deleted in colorectal cancer) attract commissural axons toward the midline en route to their final destination. To test whether these molecules can also guide dendrites, we studied the contralateral dendrites of zebrafish octavolateralis efferent (OLe) neurons, which are unusual in that they navigate toward and cross the midline. We found that,...
متن کاملSpider mechanoreceptors.
Spiders have highly developed mechanosensory systems, some of which provide access to forms of stimulation alien to our own sensations. Studies of hair-shaped air movement detectors (trichobothria) and tactile sensors have uncovered an outstanding refinement of the processes of stimulus uptake and stimulus transformation, which reflect details of both stimulus physics and behavioral significanc...
متن کاملMechanoreceptors in human ankle ligaments.
Chronic ankle instability after ligamentous injuries has been attributed to loss of proprioception, but there has been no previous study of the mechanoreceptors in human ligaments at this joint. We have examined the ligaments from five cadaver ankles for mechanoreceptors and classified them into the four types described by Wyke and Freeman in their study of feline ligaments. Type-II receptors, ...
متن کاملMechanoreceptors and central command.
STATIC EXERCISE INCREASES mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and ventilation. Central command and the exercise pressor reflex are the two neural mechanisms causing these responses to static exercise. Central command is defined as the parallel activation of the locomotor and autonomic circuits in the central nervous system that simultaneously increase motor activity as well as arterial pressure...
