Distribution of Glycoconjugates in the Gills of Oscar Fish, Astronotus ocellatus
نویسندگان
چکیده
Glycoconjugates involved in many functions are produced by cell types. This study aimed to investigate the glycoconjugate expression Oscar fish (Astronotus ocellatus) gills using five horseradish peroxidase-conjugated lectins. revealed that gill epithelial cells react with Canavalia ensiformis agglutinin (Con A) and Arachis hypogaea (PNA). Strong reaction Con A was seen of primary lamellae. Epithelial secondary lamellae eosinophilic granular had varying intensity PNA binding. Ulex europaeus agglutinin-I(UEA-I) positive were observed connective tissue filament intensities. Superficial reacted various degrees. reaction. These results indicate distribution may show interspecific variations, suggesting high heterogeneity naturally occurring glycoconjugates might be attributed functional roles glycoconjugates.

The Naturally Occurring Accommodative Response of the Oscar, Astronotus ocellatus, to Visual Stimuli
Observation of the naturally-occurring accommodative response of a highly visual teleost species provides the opportunity to study its stimulus-response accuracy. A video recording system, linked to a computer digitizing program, was used to measure accommodative changes in lens position in the oscar, Astronotus ocellatus, in response to known food stimuli. The largest lens deviations occurred ...

This case report describes the radiographic, ultrasonographic and computed tomographic (CT) examination of an abdominal swelling in a Red Oscar (Astronotus ocellatus Cuvier, 1829). While radiography only demonstrated caudoventral compression of the swimbladder, ultrasonography found a huge tumor-like parenchyma in the caudal abdomen. CT studies detected a possible connection between the tumor a...

متن کاملSelectivity in regeneration of the oculomotor nerve in the cichlid fish, Astronotus ocellatus.
IT has long been considered a general rule for nerve regeneration that the reinnervation of skeletal muscle is nonselective. Regenerating nerve fibers are supposed to reconnect with one skeletal muscle as readily as another according to studies covering a wide range of vertebrates (Weiss, 1937; Weiss & Taylor, 1944; Weiss & Hoag, 1946; Bernstein & Guth, 1961; Guth, 1961, 1962, 1963). Similarly,...
