The mechanosensitive cells in arthropod setae can be classified in 2 groups, which are structurally and functionally different. The typical mechanosensitive cells of insect setae show a tubular body at the tip of their dendrites, whereas mechanosensitive cells of aquatic crustaceans never show such a structure and are characterized by a 9 + 0 cilium, a large ciliary root and a scolopale cell. Among crustaceans, mechanosensory cells with a tubular body are observed only in terrestrial isopods. Therefore, it seems that the type of mechanosensitive cell associated with an arthropod seta is linked more to the physical environment than to the systematic group. It is also linked to differences in the kind of mechanosensitivity of the 2 types of cells: dendrites with a tubular body are compression-sensitive, whereas dendrites with a 9 + 0 type cilium would be stretch-sensitive. The presence of one type of cell in the terrestrial organisms and of the other in the aquatic animals may be explained by the physical characteristics of the environment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100701,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Insect Morphology and Embryology","volume":"26 3","pages":"Pages 181-190"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0020-7322(97)00020-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86229956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Morphogenesis begins with the formation of a primary ciliary dendrite (9 × 2 + 0) by the neuron that grows above the epidermal surface.

In hemimetabolous insects preparing for molting, the dendrite leaves the new sensillum via an apical or a lateral pore, remaining connected with the old sensillum.

Odorant-binding proteins of different classes, pheromone-binding protein and general odorant-binding protein 2, were localized in different olfactory sensilla. The expression pattern of these proteins among the population of olfactory sensilla was analysed and correlated with the olfactory specificity of sensilla. The results support the notion that odorant-binding proteins may play a multifunctional role in olfactory signal transduction. Further immunocytochemical experiments concerned the intracellular signalling pathways. A G-protein of the G<sub>q</sub>-family and an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-receptor, which is an inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent Ca<sup>2+</sup> —channel, were localized in the receptive dendrites of olfactory receptor cells and other parts of the neuroepithelium. Both molecules are involved in the inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate/diacylglycerol second messenger pathway, which is supposed to mediate olfactory signal transduction in insects. Calmodulin, an ubiquitous calcium-binding protein, and calcineurin, a Ca<sup>2+</sup>/calmodulin-regulated phosphatase, were also localized at high labelling densities in the dendrites of olfactory receptor cells. This co-expression and the finding that a Ca<sup>2+</sup>-channel (the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-receptor) is localized in the receptor cell dendrites supports the notion that calcium plays a role in olfactory signal transduction. Finally, a possible nitric oxide-synthase was localized in the haemolymph, which suggests that the localized form of the enzyme has no functional relevance for olfactory signal transduction.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100701,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Insect Morphology and Embryology","volume":"26 3","pages":"Pages 217-228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0020-7322(97)00023-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78727751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cytoskeleton present in sensory cells as well as in auxiliary cells may play an important role in sensilla function. The scolopale, the characteristic cytoskeletal component in the innermost auxiliary cell of mechanosensitive scolopidia and thermo-/hygrosensitive sensilla, is mainly composed of bundles of 10 nm filaments. Cytochemical approaches for light and electron microscopy identified these structures as actin filaments that exhibited a unique filament orientation and uniform filament polarity. None of these approaches has provided evidence for the presence of myosins in the scolopale. In contrast, tropomyosin and the microtubule-associated protein 2 are associated with the actin filament bundles in the scolopale of scolopidia. All data taken together suggest that the actin filaments of scolopale have a stabilizing rather than a contractile function. In scolopidia, in addition to cellular stabilization, filament elasticity would appear to be important during stimulation. Owing to the high number of microtubules, the scolopale in thermo-/hygrosensitive sensilla seems more rigid than in scolopidia and may protect sensory dendrites from mechanical forces. In sensory cells of scolopidia, regularly cross-striated ciliary rootlets are additional prominent cytoskeletal structures. Immunohistochemistry reveals that these rootlets contain the Ca<sup>2+</sup>-binding protein centrin, which forms contractile filaments in other systems, e.g., unicellular green algae. Accordingly, contractions of ciliary rootlets may also be part of the filament function in insect sensilla.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100701,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Insect Morphology and Embryology","volume":"26 3","pages":"Pages 191-203"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0020-7322(97)00021-4","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74303756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Golgi impregnations revealed the morphology of these fibres. Thus, the regional specialization of the retina (dorsal rim area and large dorsal region) does not seem to be reflected at the level of the first visual neuropil. Additionally, the cartridges of both lamina regions were investigated qualitatively for synaptic contacts among fibres.
