The results showed that both male and female were fourteen segmented, the male was approximately 2000 μm and the female was 1050μm. Six types of sensillae on the antenna were observed, viz. chaetica （Ch）, trichoidea （Tr）, basiconica （Ba）, cavity （Ca）, styloid （St） and circumfila （Ci） on the antennae of A. aphidimyza. Sensillae Ch had a long external-process, with a base surrounded by membranous sockets and a length of about 67.5 μm. Sensillae Tr were distally curved and inserted into a depression, 61.0μm long. Sensillae Ba were peg-like and 4.7μm long on the antennae. Sensillae Ca were pit-like in appearance and the diameter of the pit was 1.2μm. Sensilla St was found on the second sub-segment flagellum of the male antennae. The length of the sensilla was about 21 μm and the diameter was 1.5μm. The circurnfila, which are a unique type of sensilla found only on cecidomyiid antennae, formed loops around each of the antennal sub-segments, and were attached to the surface by a series of stalks. Sensilla St was only present on male antenna. The number of Ba and Tr was almost the same in both sexes. There were more Sensilla Ca on the male antenna than on the female, while there was more Ch on the female.展开更多
Aim of the study: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on canine pyloric pressure and its relation with contents of motilin (MTL), somatostatin (SS) and nitric oxide synthetase (NOS) in the gastric mucosal...Aim of the study: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on canine pyloric pressure and its relation with contents of motilin (MTL), somatostatin (SS) and nitric oxide synthetase (NOS) in the gastric mucosal tissues. Methods: The total and basic pressure of the pyloric sphincter, and the frequency of the high pressure waves were measured by using a gastrotonometer; and the contents of MTL, SS and NOS in tissues of the gastric body and gastric antrum mucosa were detected by using radioimmunoassay(RIA) and biochemical methods in 20 dogs. Results: After EA of Zusanli (ST 36), the total and basic pressure of the pyloric sphincter, and the frequency of the high pressure waves, the content of SS in the gastric body mucosa, MTL and SS in the gastric antrum mucosa all decreased significantly (P<0.05) and the level of NOS increased clearly (P<0.05). While after EA of Xiajuxu (ST 39), all the indexes had not any striking changes except significant decrease of SS content in the gastric body mucosa (P<0.05). Conclusions: EA has a significant modulating action on gastrointestinal functional activities by lowering canine pyloric pressure and contracted frequency, which is also related with its influence on contents of some brain gut peptides (BGP) and is of specificity in meridians and acupoints.展开更多
