Thyroid hormone effects on chick scale morphogenesis and keratinization.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effects of thiourea injection on scale development were studied in New Hampshire Red x White Leghorn Cross chick embryos. Normal morphogenesis and keratinization of scales were significantly delayed in thioureatreated specimens. Subsequent thyroxine injection resulted in normal or even precocious scale development. The thyroid hormone responsiveness of scale development is discussed in relation to other studies of endocrine effects on differentiation of skin and skin derivatives.

A Chick Embryo in-Vitro Model of Knee Morphogenesis
Background: In this feasibility study, a mechanically loaded in-vitro tissue culture model of joint morphogenesis using the isolated lower extremity of the 8 day old chick embryo was developed to assess the effects of mechanical loading on joint morphogenesis. Methods: The developed in-vitro system allows controlled flexion and extension of the chick embryonic knee with a range of motion of ...

Inappropriate TSH hypersecretion was diagnosed in a 34 years old woman. Earlier she had been treated by ablative therapy for hyperthyroidism. The present diagnosis was based on elevated basal serum TSH levels despite elevated serum free thyroid hormone level. Her TSH responses to TRH (peak value 240 mu/I) was high. Her albumin and prealbumin levels were normal. The serum TBG level, alpha subuni...

متن کاملMorphometric analysis of the cerebellar Purkinje cell in the developing normal and hypothyroid chick.
A morphometric analysis of Purkinje cells in the developing cerebellar cortex of the chick was performed in normal animals and embryos made hypothyroid by one or two spaced injections of tetramethylthiourea. Profiles of 162 Purkinje cells, from Golgi-Cox treated sections were analysed. Soma area, perimeter and circularity index, cumulative length of the dendrites and number of dendritic bifurca...
