Paracellular Absorption Is Relatively Low in the Herbivorous Egyptian Spiny-Tailed Lizard, Uromastyx aegyptia
Absorption of small water-soluble nutrients in vertebrate intestines occurs both by specific, mediated transport and by non-specific, passive, paracellular transport. Although it is apparent that paracellular absorption represents a significant route for nutrient absorption in many birds and mammals, especially small, flying species, its importance in ectothermic vertebrates has not previously ...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA Variability within Uromastyx ornata philbyi (Agamidae: Squamata) from Southwestern Saudi Arabia
Approximately 2.4 kbp of mitochondrial DNA was sequenced from 9 individuals of Uromastyx ornata philbyi originating from Taif, Namas, Al-Baha, and Jazan in southwestern Saudi Arabia. The sequenced regions cover eight tRNA genes (tRNA(Gln), tRNA(Ile), tRNA(Met), tRNA(Trp), tRNA(Ala), tRNA(Asn), tRNA(Cys), and tRNA(Tyr)) and two protein-coding genes (NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 and cytochrome b)...
متن کاملUltrastructural Study of Uromastyx aegyptia Skeletal Muscles
ABSTRACf. The present study was concerned with the ultrastructure of the mandibular externus of the jaw and the tail skeletal muscles of U. aegyptia. Results obtained revealed differences in general morphology between the two muscles. The sarcoplasmic reticulum, T-system, and large deposits of glycogen granules, were encountered in the jaw muscle. However, the SR are not well developed. In cont...

متن کاملHelminth parasites of the African lizard Agama agama (Squamata: Agamidae), in Lagos, Nigeria.
Agama agama, the agamid rainbow lizard, has been reported to serve as transport and reservoir host to several protozoan and helminth parasites. We randomly sampled 310 specimens between May and July, 2005, at Oyingbo, Lagos, Nigeria (6 degrees 34'60" N-3 degrees 19'59" E and 6 degrees 34'60" N-3 degrees 19'59" E).They harboured four species of nematodes: Strongyluris brevicaudata, Parapharyngod...
