Ultrastructure of the osphradium of Aplysia californica

Cell and Tissue Research, 1987
The osphradium of Aplysia californica, a sensory organ, is a small yellow-brown epithelial patch located in the mantle cavity immediately anterior to the rostral attachment of the gill. Scanning electron microscopy reveals a round ellipsoid structure of 0.6-1 mm in diameter with a central, occasionally folded, sensory epithelium.

The bag cell egg-laying hormones of Aplysia brasiliana and Aplysia californica are identical

Peptides, 1988
Egg laying in the marine molluscan genus Aplysia is elicited by an egg-laying hormone (ELH) which induces ovulation and acts on central neurons to effect egg-laying behavior. ELH, isolated from the A. californica bag cells, and three ELH-related peptides, isolated from the A.

Expression dynamics of the aplysia abyssovirus

Virology
Two recent studies documented the genome of a novel, extremely large (35.9 kb), nidovirus in RNA sequence databases from the marine neural model Aplysia californica. The goal of the present study was to document the distribution and transcriptional dynamics of this virus, Aplysia abyssovirus 1 (AAbV), in maricultured and wild animals.

Distribution of the Aplysia cardioexcitatory peptide, NdWFamide, in the central and peripheral nervous systems of Aplysia

Cell and Tissue Research, 2003
NdWFamide is an Aplysia cardioexcitatory tri-peptide containing D-tryptophan. To investigate the roles of this peptide, we examined the immunohistochemical distribution of NdWFamide-positive neurons in Aplysia tissues. All the ganglia of the central nervous system (CNS) contained NdWFamide-positive neurons.

The visceral ganglion of Aplysia Californica

Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie, 1963
1. The neurons and glial cells of the visceral ganglion are closely packed together except in the peripheral zone of the ganglion, where an extracellular space, the subcapsular sinus, occurs. The interglial clefts are often dilated in this region, and contain small amounts of the flocculent material which fills the sinus. 2.

Serial synapses in Aplysia

Journal of Neurobiology, 1978
AbstractSerial synapses occur between small profiles in the neuropil of Aplysia abdominal ganglion. Material was fixed in phosphate buffered OsO4, embedded in epon, and sections were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate. A class of synapses had the following characteristics: (1) synaptic vesicles clustered against the presynaptic membrane, (2 ...

Developmental assembly of learning in Aplysia

Trends in Neurosciences, 1989
Development can provide a powerful analytic approach for distinguishing and analysing specific behavioral, cellular and molecular processes as they emerge during ontogeny. Recently, such a developmental strategy has been used to investigate the functional assembly of different forms of non-associative learning (habituation, dishabituation and ...
