Novel bridge of axon-like processes of epithelial cells in the aboral sense organ of ctenophoresSidney L Tamm
Biology Department, Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA
J Morphol 254:99-120. 2002..We discuss the possibility that the bridge is an electrical conduction pathway to balancers that coordinates tentacle-evoked swimming responses of ctenophores, such as global ciliary excitation...
Unsolved motility looking for answerSidney L Tamm
Department of Biology, Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA
Cell Motil Cytoskeleton 65:435-40. 2008..Torque is generated along the length of the axostyle complex by an unknown mechanism. Here I describe findings not published before and promising experiments that may help to solve this remarkable motility...
Regeneration of ciliary comb plates in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi. i. morphologySidney L Tamm
Biology Department, Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA
J Morphol 273:109-20. 2012..This study provides a morphological foundation for histological, cellular, and molecular analysis of ciliary regeneration in ctenophores...
