Electron microscopic atlas of the simian cochlea. 1983

D Bodian

An electron microscopic atlas of simian cochlear duct structures is presented with the hope that it may help to clarify certain questions of structural-functional relationships. Emphasis is placed on structures directly involved in sensory transduction and in synaptic transmission, at afferent and efferent nerve fiber terminals. A brief discussion is included as an introduction to the possibilities of interpretation of electron microscopic data. Orientation of electron micrographs is assisted by means of numerical coding on light microscopic photographs, and by means of a diagram which combines electron microscopic and light microscopic data.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries

D008253 Macaca mulatta A species of the genus MACACA inhabiting India, China, and other parts of Asia. The species is used extensively in biomedical research and adapts very well to living with humans.

D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
D002520 Cercopithecidae The family of Old World monkeys and baboons consisting of two subfamilies: CERCOPITHECINAE and COLOBINAE. They are found in Africa and part of Asia.

D003051 Cochlea The part of the inner ear (LABYRINTH) that is concerned with hearing. It forms the anterior part of the labyrinth, as a snail-like structure that is situated almost horizontally anterior to the VESTIBULAR LABYRINTH. Cochleas
D004901 Erythrocebus patas A species of the genus ERYTHROCEBUS, subfamily CERCOPITHECINAE, family CERCOPITHECIDAE. It inhabits the flat open arid country of Africa. It is also known as the patas monkey or the red monkey. Monkey, Patas,Monkey, Red,Patas Monkey,Red Monkey,Monkeys, Patas,Monkeys, Red,Patas Monkeys,Red Monkeys
D006198 Hair Cells, Auditory Sensory cells in the organ of Corti, characterized by their apical stereocilia (hair-like projections). The inner and outer hair cells, as defined by their proximity to the core of spongy bone (the modiolus), change morphologically along the COCHLEA. Towards the cochlear apex, the length of hair cell bodies and their apical STEREOCILIA increase, allowing differential responses to various frequencies of sound.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
