چکیده
Placental development was studied in 24 gerbils from day 13 to term. Allantoic mesoderm contacts and vascularizes the chorionic-trager plate of germinal cytotrophoblast on day 13. Soon villous extensions penetrate the plate, carrying with them a covering of three layers of trophoblast derived from it. As the villi elongate, clumps of germinal cytotrophoblast are carried peripherally by them. Further development of each villus results in a cylindrical mesenchymal core with a central arteriole, and radially arranged branching lamellar extensions carrying capillaries derived from the villus arteriole. Germinal cytotrophoblast clusters disappear near term, but some indication always remains of the trilaminar covering of the villus and its lamellae. A typical countercurrent blood flow pattern occurs. The trophospongium is derived from the ectoplacental cone and the mesometrial surface of the germinal cytotiophoblastic plate. Although a few clusters of small cells occur, it is essentially a giant cell trophospongium and never contains cells resembling the clear cells of the rat. Late in pregnancy i t becomes much reduced in thickness. The unique subplacental gland begins to degenerate soon after placental establishment and is gone by the last half of pregnancy. The metrial gland begins development at midterm and becomes a solid mass of cells filling the perivascular space of the mesometrial tri-

Determination of Giardia lamblia cyst infective dose for the Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus).
The purpose of this study was to determine the 50% infective dose for Giardia lamblia (CDC:0284:1) cysts in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus). The log10 50% infective dose results calculated by probit analysis and the Spearman-Karber method were 2.45 and 2.50, respectively.

Diethylcarbamazine (DEC) was effective in reducing microfilarial densities of Brugia pahangi in Mongolian jirds (Meriones unguiculatus) when it was administered intraperitoneally at the daily dosage of 300 mg/kg of body weight either for 5 consecutive days or every 3 days for 43 days with the total of 15 doses. The latter treatment scheme seemed to be more effective than the former, suggesting ...

This study revealed the dose dependency of prednisolone tertiary-butylacetate (PTBA) treatment on the establishment of Echinococcus multilocularis in the small intestine of Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) and that some of the physiological parameters of host were correlated with the doses of PTBA and establishment of the worm. Twenty Mongolian gerbils were divided into 5 groups, accord...
