    Notes: Abstract The present morphology and tectonic evolution of more than 1500 kilometres of the Central Indian Ridge are described and discussed following the integration of GLORIA side-scan sonographs with conventional geophysical datasets. Segmentation of the ridge occurs by a series of ridge axis discontinuities ranging in periodicity along strike from 275 km to less than 30 km. These segment boundaries we have classified into two types: first order fracture zones of offsets greater than 50 km which bound five major (mega-) segments, and smaller scale structures of a variety of offset styles and amplitudes which cut four of these segments. We refer to these as ridge-axis discontinuities. The frequent opposite sense of offset identified between the first order structures and the subordinate discontinuities between these major structures is interpreted as resulting from the adjustment to new kinematic parameters after magnetic anomaly 20. As far as our data allows us to determine, the central major segment is not subdivided by minor ridge axis discontinuities, which we suggest is a result of its proximity to the Rodriguez hotspot.

    Notes: During human skin development, embryonic- and fetal-specific periderm cells and incompletely keratinized cells are replaced by keratinocytes that differentiate while stratifying to form the fully functional epidermis. Proliferating basal cells of fetal skin also develop into epidermal appendages such as hair follicles and glands. We demonstrate that programmed cell death, not emphasized in conventional epidermal biology, has an important function in establishing the final architecture of the human epidermis and its appendages. Immunohistochemical localization of transglutaminases in fetal periderm, intermediate epidermal cells, and within appendages coincides with DNA fragmentation indicating that apoptosis is involved in deletion of these stage-specific cells and remodeling of appendages. The data also suggest that terminal differentiation of epidermal cells might be a specialized form of apoptosis. The pattern of expression of bcl-2, a gene associated with survival of some cells, is exclusive of the distribution patterns of markers of the cell death pathway. Bcl-2 protein is correlated with specific morphogenetic events in hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands, and its presence in single cells of the hair follicle bulge suggests that Bcl-2 may be a stem cell marker. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Hymenopteran venom glands are epidermal glands that have evolved from female accessory reproductive glands. In the honey bee, Apis mellifera L., the venom gland shows many of the fine structural features of primitive glands. A honey bee venom gland is a simple, long, thin, distally bifurcated structure, opening into an ovoid reservoir. Along most of the length of the gland are similar secretory units that have four major components (secretory cells, duct cells, ducts, and end apparatuses), except in the part of the gland proximal to the venom reservoir, where the secretory units resemble those around the venom reservoir. In the latter secretory units a funnel structure occurs between the duct (which is shorter than that of the secretory units of the gland) and the end apparatus. This funnel may be important in protecting the secretory cells around the reservoir from the cytolytic activity of the complex chemical mixture constituting the venom.
