Abstract

Cytochemical studies of adenylate cyclase activity were performed on Dugesia lugubris s.l. to ascertain which cell types, among the heterogenous cell population, showed significant adenylate cyclase activity on their plasma membranes.

Nondecapitated worms and cephalic regenerants were examined in replicated experiments. Evidence of adenylate cyclase activity was noted in secretory tissues and the protonephridial system of non‐operated worms, and also in dedifferen‐tiating and regenerating tissues of operated worms. Observations presented in this study call attention to the role of adenylate cyclase in some of the main physiological processes of triclads, such as secretion, excretion, and regeneration.
