Effect of ventral nerve cord transection on metabolic parameters in the nervous system of the cockroach, Periplaneta americana L.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Periplaneta americana were subjected to unilateral transection of the ventral nerve cord, and the levels of soluble and total proteins and total carbohydrates were determined 30 days postoperatively. Total proteins showed a decrease while soluble proteins and total carbohydrates showed an elevation. These changes were correlated with the generation of giant fibers in the ventral nerve cord.

متن کاملNeural Circuit Recording from an Intact Cockroach Nervous System
The cockroach ventral nerve cord preparation is a tractable system for neuroethology experiments, neural network modeling, and testing the physiological effects of insecticides. This article describes the scope of cockroach sensory modalities that can be used to assay how an insect nervous system responds to environmental perturbations. Emphasis here is on the escape behavior mediated by cerci ...

در این تحقیق به بررسی اثر تاکیکینین بر روی فعالیت آلفا آمیلاز، پروتئاز و لیپاز در معده میانی سوسری امریکایی (L.) Periplaneta americana پرداخته شد. فعالیت ایمنوهیستوشیمیایی سلول‌های معده میانی (بخش های جلویی، میانی و عقبی) که تاکیکینین ترشح می‌کردند مورد تایید قرار گرفت. چهار هفته گرسنگی، تعداد سلول هایی را که عکس العمل ایمنوهیستوشیمیایی مقابل آنتی‌بادی تاکیکینین داشتند (Tachykinin-ir cel...
متن کاملThe location of penetration barriers in the ganglia of the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana (L.).
In the period between 1950 and i960 there were a number of reports of the relative insensitivity of insect nerves and ganglia to various electrolytes, drugs and toxicants which affected vertebrate nervous systems. Examples include: potassium acting on the crural nerve of the locust, Locusta migratoria (Hoyle, 1952, 1953); potassium and acetylcholine acting on ganglia of the American cockroach P...
متن کاملEvaluation of bacterial infection of external surface and digestive system of cockroach species
Introduction: The presence of cockroaches has health implications, such as nosocomial infection, as the insects move freely from areas within and around hospitals that may harbor pathogenic organisms. The aims of the present study were to detect cockroach species and bacterial infection transmitted by their surface and their digestive system. Methods: In this study we caught 250 cockroac...
