Oogenesis, the gonadosomatic index (GSI), reproductive cycle and first sexual maturation of the female Neptunea (Barbitonia) arthritica cumingii have been investigated by light and electron microscope observations. In the early vitellogenic oocyte, the Golgi complex and mitochondria were involved in the formation of glycogen, lipid droplets and yolk granules. In late vitellogenic oocytes, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and multivesicular bodies were involved in the formation of proteid yolk granules in the cytoplasm. In particular, compared with the results of other gastropods, it is a different result that appearances of cortical granules at the cortical layer and microvilli on the vitelline envelope, which is associated with heterosynthetic vitellogenesis, were not observed in vitellogenic oocytes during oogenesis. A mature yolk granule was composed of three components: main body (central core), superficial layer, and the limiting menbrane, Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic index in females were studied in 2002 and 2003 were closely associated with ovarian developmental phases. Spawning occurred between May and August in 2002 and 2003 and the main spawning occurred between June and July when the seawater temperature rose to approximately 18${\sim}$23${\circ}$C. The female reproductive cycle can be classified into five successive stages: early activestage (Septmber to October), late active stage ( November to February), ripe stage (February to June), partially spawned stage (May to Aygust), and recovery stage (June to August).

The turnover of epidermal cells after seawater adaptation of the freshwater fishwas studied in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata) by means of Proliferating cell nucleus antigen (PCNA) immunocytochemistry and transmission electron microscopy. The number of PCNA-immunoreactive cells in the epidermis of the seawater-adapted guppies, which becomes thinner than that in the fresh-water, generally increases four times as much. Degeneration of filament-containing cells by necrosis or apoptosis occurs mainly in epidermal cells. Apoptotic filament-containing cells seem to be shed into the water in the environment instead of phagocytosis by adjacent macrophages. The apoptotic chloride cell has a highly condensed cytoplasm and the lumen of tubular system is distended. The apoptotic mucous cell, which has an electron-dense cytoplasm, is characterized by the presence of a large multivesicular body of different electron densities. Macrophages contain many electron-dense lysosomal bodies and large vesicles filled with cellular debris. It is concluded that mitosis and apoptosis of epidermal cells are greatly stimulated when fish are adapting to seawater. This result reflects an increase in epidermal cell turnover by change of environmental salinity.

Fine structural changes of germ cell during the gametogenesis of Korean rockfish, Sebastes schlegeli sampled in west coast of Korea were investigated from September 1993 to August 1994. In a layer of microvilli of oocyte with active yolk duplication, many pinocytotic vesicles containing protein granules regarded as yolk precursors were observed. The multivesicular bodies were formed by gathered mitochondria. They are participated in formation of the primary yolk globules homogeneously filled with high dense particles and enclosed within a limiting membrane. The precursors of yolk globule appeared to be formed by modification of mitochondria and they developed into the primary yolk globules with participation of large and dense pinocytotic vesicles. Yolk globules in mature oocyte were consisted of three components: the crystalline type main body, the superficial layer with dense and fine granules, and the limiting membrane. Steroid hormone secreting cells were recognized in the interstitial cells of growing testis. Numerous endoplasmic reticula and large mitochondria with well developed tubular cristae appeared in their cytoplasms. The axoneme in the tail flagellum of spermatozoon consisted of nine pairs of microtubules at the periphery and one pair at the center, and they were covered with doublet microtubules.

The ultrastrucures of Xenopus otic vesicle from normal embryo (st. 43) and induced otic vesicle from animal cap assay with Activin A were compared. Activin A was applied to the presumptive ectoderm at various concentrations for three days at $20^{\circ}C$. The results were almost identical to the reference studies, but it was found that the otic vesicle was induced at the concentration of 10 ng/ml in to)v rate. This otic vesicle may be secondarily induced by the neural tissue showed commonly at the concentration of 10 ng/ml. Otoliths were observed as three or four-axis crystaline bodies in the lumen of otic vesicle. In electron micrograph of the normal embryo, two kinds of microvilli were observed on the apical position of hair cells. One was small and common, the other was large-sized and sparsely distributed. In both cell of otic vesicle, mitochondria, golgi apparatus and multivesicular body were rich, so, they showed a lot of similarities in ultrastructure. However, the otolith was not found and microvilli were overexpressed in the otic vesicle induced by Activin A.

dbcAMP에 의한 卵子의 核 崩壞 抑制作用을 電子顯微鏡的으로 究明하기 위하여 생쥐 濾胞卵子의 微細構造를 관찰하였던 바 다음과 같은 結論을 얻었다. 1. 實驗群에서의 核膜의 彎曲은 對照群의 것에 비하여 얼마간 줄고 있으며 2種의 核膜이 정상적으로 유지되고 있으나, 核膜을 따라 무수히 많은 核膜孔이 나타나고 있다. 이는 核 崩壞 抑制와 연관성이 있는 것으로 추정할 수 있다. 2. mitochondria는 對照群에서는 細胞質 전체에 산재해 있고, cristae의 構造가 뚜렷하지 못한 未分化 혹은 移行型의 것들이 많은 반면, 實驗群에서는 mitochondria가 대체로 核 周邊部에 모여 있으며 cristae가 얼마간 발달한 상태를 나타내고 있다. 3. Iysosome은 實驗群에서 그 構造도 보다 단순하고 또 그 數도 對照群에 비하여 얼마간 減少하고 있다. 4. Golgi complex는 對照群에서는 전현적인 顆粒, 層板狀 構造를 하고있으나, 實驗群에서의 것은 그다지 뚜렷하지가 않다. 5. multivesicular body는 兩群이 모두 다수 나타나고 있으며, tonofilament도 무수히 존재하고, 細胞質 전반에 걸쳐 free ribosome이 존재하고 있다. 6. 細胞膜의 microvilli의 形態는 實驗群에서는 無定形으로 변하고 있으며, perivitellin space도 상당히 넓어지고 있다. 7. 以上의 觀察結果로 미루어 보아 dbcAMP를 處理하여 24시간 배양한 卵子와, 卵巢에서 직접 採取한 卵子의 電子顯微鏡的 構造에는 근본적인 변화는 볼 수 없으며, 實驗群의 卵子에서 核膜孔의 數가 뚜렷이 증가하고 있는 것은 dbcAMP가 核膜의 透過性에 어떠한 영향을 미치므로써 卵子의 成熟을 억제하고 있는 것이 아닌가 보인다.

[ $1-{\beta}-D-Arabinofuranosylcytosine$ ](ara-C), which is a pyrimidine nucleoside analog is cytotonic to mammalian cells in culture and is active in vitro and in vivo against a variety of DNA viruses. The precise mechanism of action of ara-C has not been determined, although ara-C is thought to act as an antimetabolite, interfering with the synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA). Cytosine arabinoside originally seemed to act principally by inhibiting the conversion of cytidine to deoxytidine, thus inhibiting DNA synthesis. But recent data suggest that effects upon DNA polymerase and effects via incorporation into DNA and RNA may well be of equal importance. The author have demonstrated the effect of cytosine arabinoside on the hepatocytes of albino mice treated with ara-C, observing changes in the cytoplasmic organelles of the hepatocytes. A total of 120 healthy male albino mice were divided into the control and ara-C treated groups. The animals of the ara-C group were given 10mg. per kg of body weight of mouse ara-C in physiological saline solution and the animals of control group were given physiological saline solution, intraperitoneally. After an administration of ara-C or physiological saline solution, the animal were killed at. interval of 6, 12, and 24 hours. The specimens, which were obtained from the left anterier lobe of the liver, were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate and observed with JEM 100B electron microscope. The results were obtained as follow: A pronounced dilatation, sacculation and fragmentation of the cisterane of rough endoplasmic reticulum with dissociation of membrane bound-ribosomes, disaggregation of free ribosomes in the cytoplasm, proliferation of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum associated with depletion of glycogen paracles, atrophies of Golgi complex, production of numerous lipid droplets, and formation of antophagic vacuoles, multivesicular bodies and residual bodies are recognized in the hepatocytes of ara-C treated mice. Consequently it is suggested that cytosine arabinoside would induce a changes of the cytoplasmic organelles of the hepatocytes in albino mice.

출생후 발생에 따른 흰쥐 전뇌 기저부의 Mevnert 기저핵(nucleus basalis of Mevnert)에서 신경성장인자 수용체(nerve growth factor receptor, NGFr)를 함유하는 신경세포의 면역반응성 및 분포, 세포형의 분류, 각 형별 출현율 및 세포 크기 그리고 세포소기관과 NGFr 면역반응과의 관계를 조사하였다. NGFr 면역반응 신경세포들은 출생후 초기 발생에서 세포질 뿐만 아니라 원형질 막에서도 면역반응을 보였으나, 성체에서는 세포질에서만이 면역반응을 보였다. NGFr 면역반응 신경세포는 형태학적 특징인 세포체의 모양과 장·단축의 비를 기준으로 5가지 형, 즉 1) 원형, 2) 난형, 3) 세장형. 4) 방추형, 5) 삼각형(또는 다각형)세포로 구분되었다 원형과 난형 세포는 출생후 0일에서 각각 15.4%. 50.7%의 높은 출현율을 보였으나, 발생이 진행되면서 점차 감소하여 성체에서 각각 7.8%, 28.6%의 출현율을 보였다 반면, 세장형, 방추형 및 삼각형세포는 출생후 0일에서 각각 22%, 2.6% 9.2%의 낮은 출현율을 보였으나, 발생이 진행되면서 지속적으로 증가하여 성체에서는 각각 29 9%, 5.2%, 28.5%의 높은 출현율을 보였다. 출생후 0일에서 신경세포체의 부피는 매우 작았으나(1,642mm3), 발생에 따라 점차 증가하여 14일, 21일에서는 성체에서보다 매우 컸다(각각 6.745, 6,755mm3) 원형 및 난형세포체의 부피는 21일에서(각각 7 955. 7.020mm3), 세장형 방추형 그리고 삼각형세포체의 부피는 14일에서 제일 컸다(각각 7,067, 6,237, 7,748 mm3) 대체적으로 삼각형세포체의 부피가 제일 컸으며, 방추형세포체의 부피가 제일 작았다. 출생후 순일에서의 전자현미경적 관찰에서 세포소기관중 조면소포체, Golgi체, multivesicular body 그리고 세포표면 원형질막이 강한 NGFr 면역반응을 보였다. 위의 결과들로 미루어 MGFr은 출생후 흰쥐 전뇌 기저부 Meynert 기저핵 신경세포의 분화 및 분포와 밀접한 관계를 갖는 것으로 생각된다.

Regular monitoring on experimental animal management found the fluctuation of ART outcome, which showed a necessity to explore whether superovulation treatment is responsible for such unexpected outcome. This study was subsequently conducted to examine whether superovulation treatment can preserve ultrastructural integrity and developmental competence of oocytes following oocyte activation and embryo culture. A randomized study using mouse model was designed and in vitro development (experiment 1), ultrastructural morphology (experiment 2) and functional integrity of the oocytes (experiment 3) retrieved after PMSG/hCG injection (superovulation group) or not (natural ovulation; control group) were evaluated. In experiment 1, more oocytes were retrieved following superovulation than following natural ovulation, but natural ovulation yielded higher (p < 0.0563) maturation rate than superovulation. The capacity of mature oocytes to form pronucleus and to develop into blastocysts in vitro was similar. In experiment 2, a notable (p < 0.0186) increase in mitochondrial deformity, characterized by the formation of vacuolated mitochondria, was detected in the superovulation group. Multivesicular body formation was also increased, whereas early endosome formation was significantly decreased. No obvious changes in other microorganelles, however, were detected, which included the formation and distribution of mitochondria, cortical granules, microvilli, and smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum. In experiment 3, significant decreases in mitochondrial activity, ATP production and dextran uptake were detected in the superovulation group. In conclusion, superovulation treatment may change both maturational status and functional and ultrastuctural integrity of oocytes. Superovulation effect on preimplantation development can be discussed.
