Decapod crustaceans synthesize highly active proteolytic enzymes in the midgut gland and release at least a part of them into the stomach where they facilitate the first step in peptide hydrolysis. The most common proteinases in the gastric fluid characterized so far are serine proteinases, that is,
Persistent 24-hour rhythms of migration of retinal pigments in the compound eye have been reported for several crustaceans. Review of the literature disclosed that any one or any combination of the three pigments, distal, proximal, and reflecting, may exhibit a 24-hour rhythmicity (Brown, '44 ; Klei
Visual deprivation of the chicken eye causes axial elongation with high myopia. The cartilaginous layer of the myopic sclera shows an increase of mitotic activity. Previous studies reported that the in vivo administration of apomorphine, a dopamine nonselective agonist, eectively prevents visual-dep
