Abstract
Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins which constitute the major component of the mucus layer and are produce by many epithelial tissues in vertebrates. Osteopontin (OPN) is an adhesive phosphorylated glycoprotein that is expressed by a broad range of tissues and cells. Although gastric mucins MUC1, MUC5AC, MUC6 and OPN have been widely used in histological studies and in diagnostic pathology in order to diagnose gastric carcinomas, their localizations in the stomach of quail have not yet been studied. In this study, the localizations of MUC1, MUC5AC, MUC6 and OPN in the proventriculus and gizzard of Japanese quail during the post-hatching period were compared at light microscope levels by applying immunohistochemical methods. In all ages studied, the immunoreactivity of MUC5AC was present in the lining epithelium of both folds and superficial proventricular glands in the proventriculus, whereas MUC1, MUC6 and OPN reactivity was found in the oxynticopeptic cells of profound proventricular glands. In addition, some cells in the fold epithelium of the proventriculus showed a positive reaction to OPN. The immunoreactivity of MUC1 in gizzard was different from that of MUC5AC. Although MUC5AC was expressed in the cells of both the surface epithelium and profound glands of the gizzard, MUC1 was only localized in the profound glands of the gizzard. However, MUC6 and OPN immunoreactivity was absent in the gizzard. The results indicated that the differences between the localizations of MUC1, MUC5AC, MUC6 and OPN in quail proventriculus and gizzard may be a reflection of functional differences of stomach parts. Although the biological significances of the expressions of MUC1, MUC5AC, MUC6 and OPN in the quail stomach remains unknown, these notable glycoproteins may be associated with barrier function, host defence, and/or secretion.

Abstract
Gastric HCl secretion by the parietal cell involves the secretagogue-regulated re-cycling of the H+-K+-ATPase at the apical membrane. The trafficking of the H+-K+-ATPase and the remodelling of the apical membrane during this process are likely to involve the co-ordination of the function of vesicular trafficking machinery and the cytoskeleton. This review summarizes the progress made in the identification and characterization of components of the vesicular trafficking machinery that are associated with the H+-K+-ATPase and of components of the actin-based cytoskeleton that are associated with the apical membrane of the parietal cell. Since many of these proteins are also expressed at the apical pole of other epithelial cells, the parietal cell may represent a model system to characterize the protein- protein interactions that regulate apical membrane trafficking in many other epithelial cells.

Abstract
Calcium adenosine triphosphatase (Ca(2+)-ATPase) was localized by means of histo-and ultracytochemistry in the secretory cells of the proventriculus of the domestic fowl. The mucous cells exhibited plasmalemmal-associated enzyme activity on the external aspect of the basolateral cell membrane. Intracellularly, the luminal aspect of Golgi-membranes and of secretory vesicle membranes reacted positively for Ca(2+)-ATPase activity, as did the apical cytosol and the matrix of lysosomes. Oxyntico-peptic cells were characterized by apical and apico-lateral plasmalemmal activity and by an organelle-associated distributional pattern similar to that in the mucous cells. In addition, Ca(2+)-ATPase was associated either with the matrix of mitochondria or with tubuli of the rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. The results are discussed with respect to messenger and effector functions of calcium in the process of proventricular mucus secretion. In addition, Ca(2+)-ATPase distributional patterns in the oxyntico-peptic cell are related to the unique structure and function of these cells.

Abstract
Changes in ultrastructure and cytoskeletal organization by avian oxyntic cells, at the onset of HCl secretion, were analysed. Cells in resting state, induced by fasting and cimetidine, were compared with histamine stimulated secreting cells. Ultrastructural studies were done by transmission electron microscopy; the distribution of prekeratin, myosin, and filamin-like protein, by immunofluorescence; and that of F-actin using FITC-phalloidin. Resting cells show short pericellular clefts. These are increasingly deepened in secreting cells by a reorganization of the lateral cell borders involving displacement of the junctional complexes toward the cell base and incorporation of the tubular system to the luminal plasma membrane. In secreting cells, the processes of the secretory surface are concentrated in a pericellular groove. Histamine stimulation induces a drastic redistribution of cytoskeletal proteins. In chicken oxyntic cells, in addition to the F-actin cytoskeleton associated with the membranes of the secretory surface, there is a cytoskeletal ring containing F-actin, myosin, and a filamin-like protein, located at the level of the junctional complexes. In resting cells, filaments and masses of cytoskeletal matrix are associated with the zonula adherens. In secreting cells, the junctional complexes maintain their association with the filamentous ring, while the amorphous matrix is replaced by microfilaments that support the processes of the luminal surface. Intermediate filaments form a peripheral ring probably associated with the zonula adherens, and project from the ring toward the cell cytoplasm. Thus, with the onset of HCl secretion, the apical cytoskeletal ring of resting cells displaces toward the cell base. A role for this cytoskeletal ring in the changes in shape parallel to HCl secretion is discussed.

Abstract
Vertebrate oxyntic cells, responsible for gastric HCl production, undergo a remarkable morphological reorganization in relation to their secretory cycle. In resting state, the luminal surface of the cells is smooth; a peculiar system of endocellular membranes, the tubular system, occupies the luminal cytoplasm. Actin filaments frame a cortical network between the tubular system and the luminal plasma membrane. With the onset of HCl secretion, the tubular system becomes incorporated into the luminal plasma membrane. Villous processes containing microfilaments fill the secretory surface. This morphological reorganization of membranes and cytoskeletal matrix could regulate HCl secretion by translocation of membranes containing the proton pump from the endocellular compartment to the secretory surface. In this paper, we describe the isolation of membranes that selectively belong to the tubular system or to the cytoplasmic processes of the secretory surface of chicken oxyntic cells. Chicken oxyntic cells are the main cellular component of the proventricular glands. A resting state was obtained after cimetidine treatment, whereas the HCl-secretory state was induced by histamine. We present a comparative analysis of resting and stimulated chicken gastric glands by quantitative subcellular fractionation. The HCl secretory state was related to specific modifications in membrane fractions derived from the secretory pole of oxyntic cells. Morphological and functional reorganization of oxyntic cells was closely correlated with changes in: the sedimentation pattern of the marker enzyme of the apical pole membrane (K-NPPase), the total activity of K-NPPase and nonmitochondrial Mg-ATPase, the valinomycin dependence of K-ATPase, and polypeptides that cosediment in purified membrane fractions. Changes in the distribution pattern of K-NPPase after fractionation of histamine-stimulated glands were consistent with the replacement of the small vesicles typical of resting glands by dense membrane profiles, analogous to the luminal processes of stimulated oxyntic cells. SDS-PAGE showed that, in purified membrane fractions of stimulated glands, the concentration of 28-, 43-, and 200-kD polypeptides increased while that of 95- and 250-kD polypeptides decreased. The present results define the tubular system of oxyntic cells as an organelle with properties different from those of endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and plasma membrane. The biochemical and physico-chemical properties of this membraneous system changed when the organization of the membranes and the cytoskeletal matrix of the apical pole was modified by the onset of HCl secretion.

Abstract
Possible changes in the epithelial cells of the pigeon choroid plexus induced by administration of thyroid powder (Thyradin), 2,4-dinitrophenol, and cycloheximide were studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. A marked increase in the number of large bulbous and bleblike protrusions on the apical end of the epithelial cells was observed after oral administration of Thyradin for a month. The endoplasmic content of the protrusions consisted mainly of electron-lucent material. These results provide morphological evidence for the stimulatory effect of Thyradin. Intramuscular injections of 2,4-dinitrophenol for 15 days caused the collapse or deformation of the mitochondria and bleblike or bulbous protrusions. This indicates that changes in the surface configuration of the choroid plexus are controlled by an energy-dependent mechanism. The decrease of protrusions and polyribosomes and increase of the tubular saccules of varying electron density, size, and shape were noted in cells after 15 days of intramuscular cycloheximide injection. The electron density of the protrusions is lower than that of the control pigeons. The results of this study suggest that a curious pleomorphic structure on the apical surface of the choroid epithelial cell of pigeon is closely related to the functional state of choroidal cells. The study also demonstrates that a secondary ultrastructural response due to diverse physiologic effects is reflected in the architecture of the choroid plexus cells.

Abstract
Basal and stimulated gastric acid secretion are three to four times greater in the juvenile (30-day-old) rat than in the adult (100-day-old) rat, even though the parietal cell mass is greater in the adult. In this study we examined the possibility that the H+ secretory activity of individual parietal cells is greater in juvenile rats. To do this we used quantitative measures of secretory canaliculi and tubulovesicles as indirect measures of parietal cell H+ secretory activity. We determined that, under the experimental conditions used, the morphologic measures bear a sufficiently close linear relationship to total gastric H+ output to justify their use. We then found that when individual parietal cells from 30-day-old rats are compared quantitatively with those from 100-day-old rats, each cell from the younger rats has, on average, significantly more of the morphologic characteristics associated with higher H+ output. We inferred that individual parietal cells of 30-day-old rats, on average, may be secreting more H+ than corresponding cells of 100-day-old rats under comparable stimulation conditions.

Abstract
The fine structure of the rat parietal cell was studied, both at rest and after stimulation by refeeding or insulin administration. Experiments on fixation procedures showed that whenever the fixative contained sucrose at a concentration higher than 0.2 M, the system of cytoplasmic membranes was clearly tubular in arrangement, whereas the omission of sucrose in the fixative usually resulted in a vesicular structure. The study with the high-voltage electron microscope of thick sections prepared by conventional techniques or by impregnation with zinc iodide-osmium (ZIO) revealed that the tubules are grouped into fascicles, and that these form a feltwork that is especially thick toward the cell apex. The development of the secretory canaliculus after stimulation appears to take place by an in situ remodeling of the cytoplasmic domain occupied by the tubular system. Cells examined after short periods of stimulation (5-15 min) showed images of the tubular system and of the canalicular structure which differed both from the nonstimulated and from the fully active (30-45 min of stimulation) cell. These features include the formation of wide cisternae and of pericanalicular cytoplasmic trabeculae or laminae, whose fine structure bears close resemblance to that of the intracanalicular processes in the same cells. These images can be ordered into a hypothetical sequence which is proposed as a model to explain the transformation of the tubular system and intervening cytoplasmic matrix into secretory canaliculus.

Abstract
A histochemical investigation was carried out to detect glycoproteins in the lining and glandular epithelia of 4 regions of the stomach of Columba livia: proventriculus, intermediate region between proventriculus and gizzard, gizzard, intermediate region between gizzard and duodenum. It was noticed the presence of neutral and sulphoglycoproteins, with a clear predominance of the latter in the lining epithelia and in the simple tubular glands of the mucosa of these regions, except for the gizzard. Absence of glycoproteins was noticed in the oxynticopeptic cells of the branched tubular glands of the proventriculus. Neutral glycoproteins and traces of sulphoglycoproteins were present in the lining epithelia of the folds of its central cavity and of its exit duct. Lining the above mentioned structures, the correspondent of the gizzard, inclusively there was a pellicle of sialoglycoproteins.

Abstract
Gastric K+-NPPase represents a partial reaction of the (K+-H+)ATPase system, which is considered to be the proton pump in mammalian parietal cells. In the present paper, K+-NPPase activity was cytochemically studied by the method of Mayahara et al. (1980) in gastric glands of birds, amphibia, and mammals, either in the resting state induced by cimetidine or after stimulation of HCl secretion by histamine. The gastric K+-NPPase cytochemical reaction was localized only in oxyntic cells of the gastric mucosa in the three species tested. The subcellular distribution of the K+-NPPase reaction product drastically changes with the secretory state of HCl. In resting cells, the K+-NPPase staining is associated with the membranes of the endocellular tubular system while in HCl-secreting cells, it is associated with the plasma membrane of the elaborate secretory surface characteristic of this functional state. The above results demonstrate that the same enzymatic activity, which is associated with the gastric proton pump, is present in both membranous systems of the oxyntic cell secretory pole. This fact supports the proposal that the tubular system represents a membrane reserve that inserts the proton pump into the luminal plasma membrane in vertebrate oxyntic cells under the action of HCl secretagogues.

Abstract
The organization of intermediate filaments (IF) in cells of the rat fundic mucosa was studied by electron microscopy and immunofluorescence microscopy using specific antiprekeratin antibodies on frozen sections and isolated cells. Our results suggest that mucous cells lining the gastric surface and the gastric pits, which appeared strongly decorated, are the most rich in IF. These cells displayed coarse bundles of IF oriented in all directions as well as desmosome-attached tonofibrils. Mucous neck cells contained fewer bundles of IF located preferentially toward the apical region. Zymogen cells showed a strong staining along the contour of the luminal border, together with a faint decoration of a fine meshwork extending throughout the cytoplasm. A poorly defined fibrillar cortex present underneath the secretory plasma membrane and sparse bundles of IF among the elements of the rough endoplasmic reticulum were seen in thin sections. In contrast, parietal cells appeared brightly stained and the prekeratinlike material formed a cortical polygonal meshwork especially visible in isolated cells. A developed system of IF formed by conspicuous bundles located underneath the secretory canaliculi, among the mitochondria and in the vicinity of the basal plasma membrane, was observed in the electron microscope.

Abstract
Amphibian oxyntic cells exposed by cryofracture were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy. Comparisons were made between the structure thus revealed and those seen in thin-sectioned material from the same mucosas examined by transmission electron microscopy. Resting oxyntic cells had apical surfaces which were relatively smooth with some short microvilli. Apical cytoplasm was filled with smooth membrane tubules (so-called vesicotubules). Stimulation with a combination of histamine, dibutyryl cyclic AMP, and isobutylmethylxanthine (a phosphodiesterase inhibitor) led to a dramatic elaboration (i.e., increased membrane surface area) and a decrease in number of vesicotubules in the apical cytoplasm. The surface morphology of the stimulated oxyntic cell was much different from that reported for the mammalian parietal cell. Two types of surface elaboration were observed. Most commonly the surface was formed of flattened microplicae or lingulae. An irregular surface formed by the swelling of enlarged spaces near the apical surface was also observed. These new data have been used to evaluate the models which have been proposed to explain the nature of the transition from resting to stimulated morphology. A new model, which incorporates fusion of intracellular vesicotubules with each other and also with apical membrane, is proposed. The proposed fusion process may cause an increase in membrane area open to the extracellular (luminal)solution within the cell (rather than the eversion of membranes into the gastric lumen). Expansion of spaces between the microplicae may be caused by hydroosmotic pressures developed during active HCI secretion.

Abstract
The effect of epidermal growth factor (EGF) on gastric acid secretion was correlated with the morphological changes of the apical pole of rat parietal cells studied by transmission electron microscopy. Gastric acid secretion was stimulated by histamine, carbachol, pentagastrin, and insulin-induced hypoglycemia, and estimated by continuous recording of pH variations of gastric luminal perfusate. EGF inhibits acid secretion in these conditions. The action of the hormone also results in the arrest or reversal of the changes in shape undergone by parietal cells as they go into secretion. In view of the evidence involving cytoskeletal elements in the generation of these structural alterations, our observations suggest that the action of EGF on gastric acid secretion may be a consequence of a general effect of this hormone on cytoskeletal function.
