Abstract

Keywords
NeuroscienceBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology
The Journal of Cell BiologyOLFACTORY CILIA IN THE FROG
333 Citations1965Thomas S. Reese
Olfactory epithelium from the frog was examined in the living state by light microscopy and in the fixed state by electron microscopy to support the theory that they are the locus where electrical excitation in the olfactory organ is initiated by contact with odorous substances.
The Journal of General PhysiologyOLFACTORY NERVE FIBERS
210 Citations1956Herbert S. Gasser
Though expressed through long time constants, the properties of the pike olfactory fibers conform to the generalized schema for properties of vertebrate nerve fibers, which signalizes that they differ from the exceptional Properties of the unmedullated fibers of dorsal root origin.
The Journal of Cell BiologyELECTRON MICROSCOPIC OBSERVATIONS OF THE OLFACTORY MUCOSA AND OLFACTORY NERVE
187 Citations1957A. J. de Lorenzo
Observations of the olfactory mucosa with the electron microscope are discussed with respect to recent electrophysiological studies and the dendrite and axon of the bipolar cell are discussed.

Cell and Tissue ResearchStudies on the olfactory epithelium of the frog and the toad with the aid of light and electron microscopy
85 Citations1954Gunnar D. Bloom
Epithelial structures in the olfactory region of the frog and the toad have been examined with the aid of light and electronmicroscopy and mitochondria were found containing systems of double-membranes and in the supporting cells and Bowman's cells intracellular cytoplasmic membranes were observed.
CirculationA Consideration of the Extraneous Coats of the Plasma Membrane
81 Citations1962Philip W. Brandt
This review considers the possible role of the extraneous coat of the ameba as an additional barrier to those exchanges between the cytoplasm and the environment which involve diffusion.
Cell and Tissue ResearchEffects of various treatments on microtubules and axial units of lung-fluke spermatozoa
54 Citations1968Paul R. Burton
Evidence is presented indicating that the characteristically helical wall of the microtubules is made up of spherical subunits about 50 Å in diameter, with about 8 subunits in one turn of the helix, under certain conditions, the helical structure may be altered to form a wall comprised of longitudinal filaments.
Progress in brain researchExperiments and Concepts in Olfactory Physiology
50 Citations1966David Ottoson, Gordon M. Shepherd
This chapter reviews some of the recent work that has revealed the important influence of olfaction on feeding, mating and reproduction, and movement orientation in the vertebrates.
ScienceMicrotubules in Brain Homogenates
27 Citations1969Joel B. Kirkpatrick
Microtubules from neurons are preserved in homogenates of mammalian brain by medium containing organic solvents at acidic pH by means of negative staining and electron microscopy and the relative concentration of microtubules in suspensions can be assayed.
The Journal of Cell BiologySTABILITY OF BRAIN MICROTUBULES IN HOMOGENATES
14 Citations1969Joel B. Kirkpatrick
Hexylene glycol buffered at pH 6 .4 will preserve microtubules from mammalian brain in homogenates and cold, autolysis, divalent cations, and mitotic spindle inhibitors did not alter appreciably the stability of the microtubule in vitro.
NatureSmell, Taste, and Allied Senses in the Vertebrates
6 Citations1923W. M. B.
The mechanism of the senses of smell and taste is apt to be unduly neglected, probably on account of the fact that in civilised man these senses do not play a large part in intellectual processes, but they bring before us some interesting problems as to the nature of receptor organs in general.
