Neural Explant Cultures from Xenopus laevis.
The complex process of axon guidance is largely driven by the growth cone, which is the dynamic motile structure at the tip of the growing axon. During axon outgrowth, the growth cone must integrate multiple sources of guidance cue information to modulate its cytoskeleton in order to propel the growth cone forward and accurately navigate to find its specific targets(1). How this integration occ...
متن کاملDetection of immunoglobulins from explant cultures of periapical lesions.
The presence of immunoreactive cells in periapical inflammatory lesions suggests that immune responses participate in the disease process. The purpose of this study was to determine the presence and concentration of immunoglobulins in the supernatant fluids of explant cultures of periapical lesions. Ninety periapical lesions that had been contiguous with the apex of a root were removed and main...
متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Molecular Imaging of Neural Sprouts in Spine Explant Cultures
Introduction: There are several spinal cord injury models available for studying axonal repair in vivo [1] however, these studies are restricted to functional or behavioural changes [2] or tissue level pathologic changes detectable by MRI [3] and by histology [4]. In vitro models that use dissociated neurons provide useful information about extrinsic factors and substrates that promote neural c...
متن کاملStreptococcus pneumoniae-induced ototoxicity in organ of Corti explant cultures
Hearing loss remains the most common long-term complication of pneumococcal meningitis (PM) reported in up to 30% of survivors. Streptococcus pneumoniae have been shown to possess different ototoxic properties. Here we present a novel ex vivo experimental setup to examine in detail the pattern of hair cell loss upon exposure to different S. pneumoniae strains, therefore recapitulating pathogen ...
متن کاملPrimary explant cultures of adult and embryonic pancreas.
The developmental plasticity of adult pancreas is evidenced by the ability to undergo conversion between different epithelial cell types. Specific examples of such conversions include acinar to ductal metaplasia, ductal to islet metaplasia, and generation of ductal structures within islets. Although 90% of human pancreatic cancers are classified as ductal adenocarcinoma, markers of all pancreat...
