Proliferation in the rat olfactory epithelium: age-dependent changes.
Vertebrate olfactory sensory neurons are replaced continuously throughout life. We studied the effect of age on proliferation in olfactory epithelium in postnatal rats ranging in age from birth (P1) until P333. Using BrdU to label dividing cells, we determined the proliferation density of basal cells, i.e., the number of labeled nuclei/unit length (240 microm) of olfactory epithelium in coronal...
متن کاملAge-related changes in microvillar cells of rat olfactory epithelium.
The nature and function of microvillar cells (MVCs) of the mammalian olfactory epithelium (OE) are little understood. Previous studies have examined MVC morphology in the developing and mature OE, but not in the aged OE. The present study investigated the effect of aging on MVCs of the OE in male Sprague-Dawley rats using histological and immunohistochemical methods. OE of aged rats contained M...
متن کاملIsoproterenol-induced changes of cell proliferation in rat lens epithelium.
The epithelium of the avascular, noninnervated lens was used to study the influence of isoproterenol on cell division. Contrary to the well-known and specific stimulation of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis and cell division in the salivary glands of rats and mice by this catecholamine, the rat lens epithelium responded to a single dose of either locally or systemically administered drug w...
متن کاملOlfactory epithelium changes in germfree mice
Intestinal epithelium development is dramatically impaired in germfree rodents, but the consequences of the absence of microbiota have been overlooked in other epithelia. In the present study, we present the first description of the bacterial communities associated with the olfactory epithelium and explored differences in olfactory epithelium characteristics between germfree and conventional, s...
متن کاملAge-dependent electrocardiographic and echocardiographic changes in German Shepherd dogs
By causing numerous changes in the cardiovascular system, ageing leads to a decreased threshold for clinical manifestation of heart disease. The aim of this study was to define the existence of cardiac structural and functional changes in healthy dogs of different age. Radiographic, electrocardiographic (ECG) and echocardiographic examinations of 20 clinically healthy German Shepherd dogs were ...
