2021, Fish and Shellfish ImmunologyCitation Excerpt :Such a role is supported by the evidence reported for the epithelial cholinergic system of the lung, since the epithelial cholinergic cells of the gill lamellae carry nicotinic receptors for the release of Ach like those found in the airway epithelial cells of the lung [47] and are involved in production of antimicrobial peptide such as piscidin 1 (see below). Our results provide morphological evidence of a cholinergic cell system in the gill lamellae of the freshwater butterflyfish and is in agreement with previous studies focused on the hyperventilatory response to hypoxia and gill sites such as proximal and distal lamellae associated with ventilation and perfusion [18,48,49]. NECs, within the fish gill there are numerous potential sites for oxygen sensing.
A biomechanically derived minimum work model of the fish gill lamellar system exhibits its exquisite morphological arrangement and perfusate regulation for oxygen uptake from water
2019, Journal of BiomechanicsCitation Excerpt :The high affinity of fish blood to O2 (Root et al., 1939; Schmidt-Nielsen, 1990) is considered to be one of the major factors that facilitate O2 delivery from water to blood. The morphological arrangement of the gill lamellar microstructure is also closely related to this function (Hughes, 1966, 1972; Hughes and Morgan, 1973). The gill is composed of several gill arches, from each of which many gill filaments protrude (Fig. 1).
