本文对秀丽隐杆线虫幼虫表皮基区的精细结构进行了研究，以帮助解决有关其结构的争议。结果表明，基底带中的纹层由两组相互垂直的纹层组成。一组薄层由纵向取向的，交替的厚和薄的，嗜锇带与类似的带之间的距离测量19 nm。 另一组薄层仅由间隔约14.5 nm的厚条组成，其围绕幼虫周向定向。 据推测，角质层基底区的条纹层由蛋白质块组成，这些蛋白质块被这种明显的相互连接的嗜锇层网络分开。
The fine structure of the basal zone of the cuticle of the dauerlarva of Caenorhabditis elegans was examined in order to help resolve controversies regarding its structure. The results show that the striated layer in the basal zone consists of two sets of laminae oriented at right angles to each other. One set of laminae consists of longitudinally oriented, alternately thick and thin, osmiophilic strips with the distance between similar strips measuring 19 nm. The other set of laminae consists only of thick strips spaced about 14.5 nm apart which are oriented circumferentially about the larva. It is speculated that the striated layer of the basal zone of the cuticle consists of blocks of protein separated by this apparent network of interconnecting osmiophilic laminae.
