Abstract
Induction of metallothionein (MT) in the olfactory epithelium was studied immunohistochemically in the fish Channa punctatus (Bloch) exposed to sublethal concentrations of cadmium chloride (2.5 mg/l and 5.0 mg/l). Results revealed that basal level of MT synthesis occurred in the olfactory epithelium and cadmium chloride exposure induced the synthesis of MT. Olfactory receptor cells (ORCs), supporting cells (SCs), nerve fascicles and mucous cells exhibit strong immuno-reaction whereas basal cells were found negative. Results indicated that ORCs and SCs were the sites of MT synthesis. Mucous cells accumulated Cd–MT conjugates to eliminate the metal from the olfactory system.
