Roentgenological Aspects of Renal Function *
During the past twenty-five years excretory urography has become increasingly important as a routine screening technique for disease of the urinary tract. It is used as a case-finding procedure and has been recommended as a test of renal function. A number of iodinated organic compounds have been made available as opaque contrast media which are excreted by the kidney and result in sufficient o...
متن کاملRespiratory chemoreceptor function in vertebrates comparative and evolutionary aspects.
The sensing of blood gas tensions and/or pH is an evolutionarily conserved, homeostatic mechanism, observable in almost all species studied from invertebrates to man. In vertebrates, a shift from the peripheral O(2)-oriented sensing in fish, to the central CO(2)/pH sensing in most tetrapods reflects the specific behavioral requirements of these two groups whereby, in teleost fish, a highly O(2)...
متن کاملinterpersonal function of language in subtitling
translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
15 صفحه اولTracing the evolutionary origins of insect renal function
Knowledge on neuropeptide receptor systems is integral to understanding animal physiology. Yet, obtaining general insight into neuropeptide signalling in a clade as biodiverse as the insects is problematic. Here we apply fluorescent analogues of three key insect neuropeptides to map renal tissue architecture across systematically chosen representatives of the major insect Orders, to provide an ...
متن کاملEvolutionary aspects of allorecognition
Dear Editor, Although frequently neglected, allorecognition phenomena exhibit suites of effector mechanisms, altogether featuring one of the main biological characteristics of living organisms. A recent workshop organized by the Münster Graduate School of Evolution at the University of Münster, Germany, focused on the evolutionary aspects of allorecognition and the potential links to immune sys...
