... with the basal lamina/extracellular matrix that are non-uniformly distributed along the proximal-distal axis of cockroach legs at the time of pioneer axon growth. Two of these mAbs, PROD-1 and PROD-2, label the proximal parts of the leg more intensely than the distal ends. The other mAb, DIP-1, has the reverse...

...Jonathan P. Bacon; Jonathan M. Blagburn ABSTRACT The cercus of the first instar cockroach, Periplaneta americana , bears two filiform hairs, lateral (L) and medial (M), each of which is innervated by a single sensory neuron. These project into the terminal ganglion of the CNS where they make...

...Paul R. Truby ABSTRACT When the anteroposterior axis of a cockroach leg is reversed at a graft by exchanging a left leg for a right leg at the mid-tibia level, regeneration occurs in the region of the graft/host junction. This results in the formation of a pair of lateral supernumerary legs...
