Vol 36,, pp , Printed in Great Britain Fish swimbladder: an excellent meso dermal inductor in primary embryonic induction IZUMI KAWAKAMI 1 From the Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Kyushu University SUMMARY Swimbladder of the crucian carp, Carassius auratus, was found to be better as a vegetalizing tissue than other tissues, such as guinea-pig bone marrow, when presumptive ectoderm of Triturus gastrulae was used as reacting tissue. Swimbladder usually induced assemblies of highly organized mesodermal tissues, such as notochord, somites and pronephric tubules, some of which were covered by mesodermal epithelium without an epidermal covering. A special character of the effect of swimbladder was the rather frequent induction of solid balls of undifferentiated cells, which were identified as mesodermal or mesodermal and probably endodermal. Thesefindingsshow that swimbladder has a strong and fast spreading vegetalizing effect on the responding presumptive ectoderm. INTRODUCTION There have been many papers on the inductive capacities of heterologous tissues in embryonic primary induction, but there have been few on the inductive capacities of extracellular substances. Recently we reported (Kawakami, Sato & Osako, 1976)"a difference in the inductive capacities of liver with and without the perisinusoidal basement membrane, and we suggested a mesodermal inductive capacity for the membrane. Thinking that the major or essential agent in heterologous tissues with the capacity for primary induction must be an extracellular, amorphous substance, we examined the inductive capacities of various tissues in the hope of rinding tissues suitable for experiments on the mechanisms of primary induction. Among the tissues examined fish swimbladder was found to be the best for mesodermal induction, having advantages over guinea-pig bone marrow, used previously (Toivonen, 1953). This paper reports studies showing that fish swimbladder is a good material to use in analysis of induction mechanisms. 1 Author's address: Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Kyushu University, Fukuolea, Japan.

The procedures used were as described in the previous paper (Kawakami et al. 1976). Pieces of the swimbladder were grafted after being fixed in 90 % ethanol. The wall of swimbladder consists of outer serosa, middle fibrous layers and inner thin endodermal epithelium. The fibrous layers are composed of collagen, elastic fibers and amorphous matrix, among which a few slender cells are scattered. The middle fibrous part of the tissue was used as inductor after removing the serosa and inner epithelium, because preliminary experiments showed that all layers of the fibrous part had similar inductive effects. RESULTS Fresh and ethanol-fixed swimbladders showed similar rates and types of induction, so for simplicity only the results of experiments with ethanol-fixed tissue are described here (Table 1). The inductions observed were usually purely mesodermal, with a very few cases of fragmentary neural inductions, which were probably due to secondary inductions by the induced mesodermal tissues. The histological features of the induced mesodermal tissues were in general similar to those of tissues induced by guinea-pig bone marrow (Toivonen, 1953), though with a few characteristic features. Formation of the pronephros occurred frequently, but the induction frequency varied in different series of experiments, even when the same components of the swimbladder were used (Table 1). In some cases the pronephros differentiated alone with the inductor piece at the centre of the explants (Fig. 1 A). The

4 318 I. KAWAKAMI induced pronephros was usually well differentiated, though it was only partially differentiated in some specimens and in others it was observed as a compact mass of undifferentiated cells, in which twisted double rows of nuclei suggested poorly developed tubules. Masses of undifferentiated mesodermal and yolky cells were observed in some explants. In some of these the nuclei were arranged concentrically while in others they were randomly distributed (Fig. 1C, D). They may be indentified as myoblasts and mesoblasts respectively. Some explants, in which pronephric tubules were observed, had undifferentiated cells which were identified as the lateral plate of mesoderm (Fig. IB). Most explants developed assemblies of mesodermal tissues, such as the notochord, somites and pronephros. Some of these explants were partially or completely devoid of an ectodermal covering, but some were covered with what seemed to be mesodermal epithelium because of the presence of the openings of nephric tubules in it. Perhaps because they lacked covering epidermis many of the explants did not develop any trunk-tail structure, but remained spheroidal although they contained caudal tissues. In general explants with an epidermal covering had a normally arranged notochord, somites and pronephros. In these explants the notochord was far from the inductor graft and the pronephros was usually ventrally positioned near the graft (Fig. IE, F). DISCUSSION The value of using swimbladder in experiments on primary induction will be demonstrated in subsequent papers. Here only the special characters of the induction by this tissue will be considered. The present results show clearly that swimbladder has the capacity to induce mesodermal tissue. Fragmentary neural tissues were occasionally observed in explants. However, these were probably due to secondary induction by the induced mesodermal tissues and particularly the notochord, because in a preliminary experiment only mesodermal induction was observed when presumptive ectoderm from late gastrulae with a small yolk-plug was used as reacting tissue. In the latter the neural competence of the older presumptive ectoderm had presumably disappeared before the primarily mesodermalized ectoderm became inductive. (Sasaki, Iwamoto, Noda & Kawakami, 1976). Frequent and often bulk induction of the pronephros was noted, although the frequency of its induction varied in different series of experiments (Table 1). Attempts to find conditions favouring induction of only the pronephros or more frequent induction of the pronephros were unsuccesful. Further investigations on this might provide an understanding of the mechanisms involved in differentiation of a special tissue. Another interesting finding was the induction of massive balls of undifferentiated cells. Judging from the presence of myoblastic cells and pronephros-like
5 Fish swimbladder as mesodermal inductor 319 tubular structures, these cells were taken to be mesodermal. The high frequencies of inductions of these masses of undifferentiated and of poorly differentiated cells without an epidermal cover suggests that the swimbladder has a strong and rapidly spreading mesodermalizing effect. The explants were not cultured for more than 10 days, so no clearly differentiated endodermal tissues could be identified, but the masses of yolky cells found separated from mesoblastic cell masses were probably endodermal. This conclusion is supported by results, described in a following paper where explants were examined after 30 days of cultivation. Collateral induction of endodermal tissues with mesodermal ones by mesoderm inductive materials has been reported (Takata & Yamada, 1960; Tiedemann, 1966). Thus, simultaneous inductions of both mesodermal and endodermal tissues may be common effects of mesoderm inductive agents irrespective of their origin. This suggests that single substances obtained from different materials, even though they differ in chemical structure, may be competent to induce both mesodermal and endodermal structure. Thus, as advocated by Tiedemann (1966), these inductive materials may be termed vegetalizing factors. Explants were usually ellipsoidal, even when they showed differentiation of a notochord and somites, and formation of a long spinocaudal structure was rare. Sections of these explants usually showed the bilateral arrangement of the notochord and somites and a pronephros located ventrally near the grafted inductor tissue. A similar kind of induction was observed with tooth matrix. (Tanaka et al. unpublished). This type of induction is probably due to the very strong mesoderm-inducing capacity of these tissues, the fact that the grafted inductive tissues are flat and probably also to some additional factor, which operates in the induction itself in the early phase of differentiation. The swimbladder is very useful for experiments on primary induction because it has a very strong vegetalizing effect. It is also better than other known vegetalizing tissues such as guinea-pig bone marrow because only a short contact period with presumptive ectoderm is required to cause definite induction, because it can exert its vegetalizing effect across a filter (Sasaki et al. unpublished), and because it is relatively easy to isolate a large amount of a fraction having vegetalizing capacity. (Yamada, 1958; Tiedemann & Tiedemann, 1959; Kawakami & Iyeiri, 1964). Further studies on the vegetalizing effects of the swim-bladder will be reported in following papers.
