Fig. 8. Mandibular organ-inhibiting hormone (MOIH)-like labeling in the anterior
cardiac plexus (ACP) of Cancer productus. (A) MOIH-like labeling in
the ACP. Immunoprocessing of the stomatogastric nervous system with the MOIH
antibody consistently produced labeling in the ACP. This micrograph is a
brightest pixel projection of 16 optical sections taken at 1.95 µm
intervals. (B) MOIH-like labeling at the junction of the anterior cardiac
(acn) and stomatogastric (stn) nerves. Labeling in each ACP
arose from four axons that projected into each acn from the
stn (axons in the stn denoted by arrows). This micrograph is
a brightest pixel projection of 14 optical sections taken at 1.95 µm
intervals. (C) MOIH-like labeling at the junction of the stn and the
superior esophageal (son) nerves. The four axons that are the source
of the MOIH-like labeling in the ACP can be traced through the stn to
its junction with the paired sons. Here, two of the four axons enter
the left son and two the right son. Within each
son, MOIH-like labeling in the axons became weak near the junction of
the nerve with the commissural ganglion, and further tracing was not possible
from immunoreactivity alone (not shown). This micrograph is a brightest pixel
projection of 17 optical sections taken at 1.95 µm intervals. Both B and C
are shown at the same magnification. Scale bars in A and C, 75 µm.
