The regenerative cells during the metamorphosis in the midgut of bees.

TLDR
The hypothesis that digestive adult cells originate from regenerative cell proliferation during midgut metamorphosis in M. quadrifasciata anthidioides was rejected because the proliferation of regenerative cells would not be enough to reestablish the nests of regenerateative cells and at the same time form new adult digestive cells.

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis of the interactions between honeybee larvae and Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood of honeybees (Apis mellifera).

TL;DR: The paracellular route was shown to be the main mechanism for invasion contrasting earlier hypotheses of phagocytosis of P. larvae, implicating that the penetration of the midgut epithelium is a critical step determining the time of death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Programmed cell death and stem cell differentiation are responsible for midgut replacement in Heliothis virescens during prepupal instar

TL;DR: Midgut replacement in H. virescens is achieved by a balance between this active proliferation process and cell-death mechanisms and is different from similar processes characterized in other insects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Morphological alterations induced by boric acid and fipronil in the midgut of worker honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) larvae

TL;DR: The data suggest that the midgut cell death observed was in response to boric acid and fipronil action, which significantly improves the understanding of the toxicological effect of these insecticides from the ecotoxicological perspective.
Journal ArticleDOI

The amazing complexity of insect midgut cells: types, peculiarities, and functions

TL;DR: Despite the apparent structural simplicity of this organ, the properties of the cells make the midgut a key player in insect development and homeostasis.

Monoclonal antibody to 5-bromo- and 5-iododeoxyuridine: A new reagent for detection of DNA replication

TL;DR: Monoclonal antibodies specific for 5-bromodeoxyuridine have been produced and applied in detecting low levels of DNA replication on a cell-by-cell basis in vitro and do not cross-react with thymidine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fixation of ejaculated spermatozoa for electron microscopy.

TL;DR: Osmium tetroxide fixation of crude ejaculate consistently produces a variety of artefacts such as separation of the plasma membrane from the acrosome, widening of nuclear vacuoles, erosion of the acosome, and swelling of mitochondria.
