Urinary concentrating processes in vertebrates.
Avian and mammalian kidneys can produce a urine hyperosmotic to the blood by means of a renal countercurrent system. Birds are uricotelic; mammals are ureotelic. It is proposed that the inner medulla present in mammalian, but not in avian kidneys serves specifically to accumulate urea in the inner and outer medulla. Among mammalian kidneys the degree to which urea accumulates in the inner medul...
متن کاملDevelopmental toxicity of pharmaceuticals in lower vertebrates
The release of human pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment has become an issue of societal concern. More than 160 Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) have been detected in surface waters, although generally at low concentrations (ng-ug/l). Most available ecotoxicological information on these pharmaceuticals originates from acute testing using algae, Daphnia and fish; results from long...
متن کامل17-P012 Marsupial POU5F1 and POU2 and the evolution of early developmental processes in vertebrates
Gastrulation is characterized by the differentiation of pluripotent cells to generate the germ layers, morphogenetic movements, a decrease in cell proliferation and establishment of the embryonic axes. We show by Cdx1 knock-down that it functions as a regulator of the onset of gastrulation in agreement with its early expression. In a microarray-based approach to search for Cdx1 targets, we iden...
متن کاملStructural, functional and developmental convergence of the insect mushroom bodies with higher brain centers of vertebrates.
Convergence of higher processing centers has been proposed for insects and vertebrates, but the extent of these similarities remains controversial. The present study demonstrates that one higher brain center of insects, the mushroom bodies, displays a number of similarities with mammalian higher brain centers that are arguably the products of adaptation to common behavioral ecologies, despite t...
متن کاملDislocation is a developmental mechanism in Dictyostelium and vertebrates.
The excitable cells of Dictyostelium discoideum show traveling waves of signaling and generate a variety of complex wave forms during their morphogenesis. Important among these wave forms is the 3D spiral or scroll wave, which has been proposed previously to have a twisted variant: the "turbine wave." Herein we argue that a D. discoideum scroll or concentric wave territory containing prespore a...
