Feline degenerative joint disease.
OBJECTIVE To critically review and collate published information on feline degenerative joint disease (DJD) and identify areas in which information is lacking. STUDY DESIGN Critical literature review. METHODS Literature search through Pub Med, Commonwealth Agricultural Bureau Abstracts published in the English Language, or translated into English (January 1940-August 2008). RESULTS Althou...
متن کاملMice lacking neurofibromin develop gastric hyperplasia.
Gastrointestinal (GI) neoplasms are among many manifestations of the genetic disease neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). However, the physiological and pathological functions of the Nf1 gene in the GI system have not been fully studied, possibly because of a lack of mouse models. In this study, we generated conditional knockout mice with Nf1 deficiency in the GI tract. These mice develop gastric ep...
متن کاملLaboratory diagnosis of degenerative joint disease.
Degenerative joint disease (DJD) is characterized by pain on use. X-rays show cartilage narrowing and osteophytes. Synovial effusions are non-inflammatory, i.e. clear wiht good viscosity and less than 2000 WBC per mm. 3 Cartilage fragments may be seen in the joint fluid. Important systemic diseases that can cause degenerative joint disease include ochronosis, hemochromatosis, hyperparathyroidis...
متن کاملMice lacking microRNA 133a develop dynamin 2–dependent centronuclear myopathy.
MicroRNAs modulate cellular phenotypes by inhibiting expression of mRNA targets. In this study, we have shown that the muscle-specific microRNAs miR-133a-1 and miR-133a-2 are essential for multiple facets of skeletal muscle function and homeostasis in mice. Mice with genetic deletions of miR-133a-1 and miR-133a-2 developed adult-onset centronuclear myopathy in type II (fast-twitch) myofibers, a...
متن کاملThe Biology of Degenerative Joint Disease
magnetic shutter, flash techniques, rotating shutters, the stroboscope and several high-speed techniques such as the Kerr Cell. Crawford and Jones explain how the measurement and calibration of the stimulus is accomplished by comparing it with a standard source using a thermopile, bolometer, photocell or other light sensitive device. They explore the knowledge of photometric and radiometric rel...
