Diapause-dependent changes in prothoracicotropic hormone-producing neurons of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta.

Abstract:

:The prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH), which stimulates ecdysteroid synthesis in the prothoracic glands, is produced, in the dorso-lateral protocerebrum of Manduca sexta, by paired peptidergic neurons, the lateral neurosecretory cell group III (L-NSC III). Our study revealed ultrastructural features of L-NSC III, identified by immunogold labeling, and compared developing and diapause states. In developing and early-diapause pupae, L-NSC III soma ultrastructure is similar and is characterized by numerous clusters of neurosecretory granules (NSG) and an extensive trophospongium formed by satellite-glial cells. However, as diapause progresses, the ultrastructure changes, with the NSG becoming concentrated into large clusters separated by highly organized rough endoplasmic reticulum. Most conspicuous is a substantial reduction in the number of Golgi complexes and the glial trophospongium, and the presence of stacked plasma membrane separating the glia and neuron somata. The deep-diapause soma also has abundant glycogen deposits and autophagic vacuoles. With diapause termination, this morphology reverts to the nondiapause ultrastructure within three days, i.e. just before PTTH release that evokes development to the adult. During PTTH release the abundance of NSG in the soma does not change, suggesting that NSG depletion in the perikarya is not a marker for neurosecretion by the L-NSC III.
