Figure 6


Fig. 6. Representative gill sections probed with the {alpha}1b isoform with AP-labelled cDNA probe. (A) Gill from FW salmon; (B–D) gills from SW salmon; (E) gill section probed with β-actin cDNA probe. For orientation of sections refer to Fig. 5.A,B,C,E are sagital sections, showing lamellae emerging perpendicularly from the filament. D is a frontal section at the base of the lamellae, showing cells in the interlamellar region. Solid arrows show labelled cells on lamellae, broken arrows show labelled cells deep in the filament, open arrows show large labelled cells in filament with apical contact. Gill sections were 10 µm thick. Bars indicate 100 µm. AP, alkaline phosphatase; FW, freshwater; SW, seawater.
