Using electron microscopy, the effect of pronase on nerve ganglia of a mollusk, leech, and frog was studied for the first time. It was revealed that the effect of pronase causes the retraction and removal of glial membranes, as well as denudation of nerve fibers and neuronal bodies with a simultaneous convergence of neuromembranes of these structures, and leads to the formation of gap junctions. This effect of pronase on the membranes belongs to a number of unusual, unexpected functions, and we obtained the observed effect for the first time. Since we previously registered reverberation of a nerve impulse in the ganglia of a frog and a leech under the same conditions, we believe that the obtained morphological data represent an evidence of the formation of electrical synapses under the action of pronase on the nerve ganglia.
