Retinofugal pathways in fetal and adult spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias.
Retinofugal pathways in fetal and adult spiny dogfish were determined by intraocular injection of [3H]proline for autoradiography. Distribution and termination of the primary retinal efferents were identical in pups and adults. The retinal fibers decussate completely, except for a sparse ipsilateral projection to the caudal preoptic area. The decussating optic fibers terminate ventrally in the ...
متن کاملComparative analysis of methods for determining bite force in the spiny dogfish Squalus acanthias.
Many studies have identified relationships between the forces generated by the cranial musculature during feeding and cranial design. Particularly important to understanding the diversity of cranial form amongst vertebrates is knowledge of the generated magnitudes of bite force because of its use as a measure of ecological performance. In order to determine an accurate morphological proxy for b...
متن کاملAllosteric interactions governing oxygen equilibria in the haemoglobin system of the spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias.
The oxygenation-linked, allosteric interactions of erythrocytic organic phosphates and urea with the haemoglobin (Hb), and the functional significance of the Hb multiplicity, were studies in an elasmobranch, Squalus acanthias. The autochthonous red cell nucleoside triphosphates (NTP) ATP and GTP (guanosine triphosphate) strongly depress O2 affinity of the stripped (cofactor-free) Hb and increas...
متن کاملConservation and variation in the feeding mechanism of the spiny dogfish squalus acanthias
Changes in the feeding mechanism with feeding behavior were investigated using high-speed video and electromyography to examine the kinematics and motor pattern of prey capture, manipulation and transport in the spiny dogfish Squalus acanthias (Squalidae: Squaliformes). In this study, Squalus acanthias used both suction and ram behaviors to capture and manipulate prey, while only suction was us...
متن کاملType IV carbonic anhydrase is present in the gills of spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias).
Physiological and biochemical studies have provided indirect evidence for a membrane-associated carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoform, similar to mammalian type IV CA, in the gills of dogfish (Squalus acanthias). This CA isoform is linked to the plasma membrane of gill epithelial cells by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor and oriented toward the plasma, such that it can catalyze the dehydration o...
