  • Title: Fine structure of the subradular organ of Lepidochitona cinereus (L), (Mollusca, Polyplacophora).
    Author: Boyle PR.
    Journal: Cell Tissue Res; 1975 Oct 13; 162(3):411-7. PubMed ID: 171073.
    Abstract:
    Electron microscopy of the subradular organ of the chiton Lepidochitona cinereus (L) reveals at least three cell types, microvillous, ciliated and mucus-secreting, situated in a single epithelium. The base of the epithelium is abundantly innervated and supplied with muscle cells. The fine structure is consistent with a chemosensory function for the subradular organ.
