Mixed haemadsorption assays using antibody-coated indicator sheep erythrocytes and mouse alloantisera revealed that major histocompatibility complex (H-2) antigens were expressed on cells of 24-72 h cultures of mid-gestation mouse embryonic skin, gut, lung, limb-bud and heart but not of embryonic gonad or kidney. The precise time of detection of H-2 antigen expression and the proportions of cel...

Vestimentiferan tubeworms are significant members of deep-sea chemosynthetically-driven communities, including hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. The reproductive condition in this taxon is rarely studied because of sampling constraints inherent to these environments, and the lack of a simple methodology to quantify gonad development in vestimentiferans. We demonstrate that the amount of gonad ...

In many animals, germ cells migrate to the gonad to assemble into a functional organ. Recent work in Drosophila has built a picture of the gene activities that specify the gonad and allow it to attract germ cells, and has led to the identification of a gene, columbus, that may encode the attractive factor.

Abstract Kawakawa (Euthynnus affinis) is one of the economically valuable species for Mallaca strait fishermen. This study aims to determine level gonad maturity, size fish’s first ripe gonad, and maturity index (E. caught at Tanjung Beringin’s Auction Place, Serdang Bedagai Regency, North Sumatra. Three months sampling were conducted, from July September 2021. The maturation gonads was observe...

a seventeen-years old woman was presented with infertility and primary amenorrhea. she had normal stature, femate phenotype and normal development of breasts, external genitalia, vagina and cervix. pelvic examination showed a large lobulated mass. on sonography there was a mass with probable origin of ovary. paraclinic tests were carried out. gonadotropins were in postmeno pausal limits. alpha ...

The Vilariça River was restored in order to improve the fish habitat due construction of dams. However, pressure that agriculture exerts on water resources, it is crucial evaluate its consequences health from a histological perspective. gonad histopathological changes two cyprinid species were assessed microscopically and evaluated with semi-quantitative analysis. Histopathological gonad, gill,...

Studies on the zebrafish model have contributed to our understanding of several important developmental processes, especially those that can be easily studied in the embryo. However, our knowledge on late events such as gonad differentiation in the zebrafish is still limited. Here we provide an analysis on the gene sets expressed in the adult zebrafish testis and ovary in an attempt to identify...

This study is aimed at revealing the dietary protein requirement for gonad production in sea urchin Mesocentrotus nudus, with consideration of leaching from diets during seawater immersion. Feeding trials were performed on M. nudus using two diet types low capacities leaching: starch (STG) containing 0–40% gluten 10%, 5%, and 4% increments (experiments 1–3) alginate (ALG) 5–25% 5% (experiment 4...

Concentration of heavy metals in different tissues (muscle, liver, gonad, skin, kidney) Roach (Rutilus rutilus caspicus) Guilan coasts the Caspian Sea

considering its gobiidea and feeding fish sturgeon caspian sea highest main and the need to fecundity this fish, this study was done in babolroud and tajan rivers in mazandaran. in order to conduct the study, 197 sand goby we were caught using an electros choker machine (v300-200) in the spring of 1390 ,which was the spawning season, at the tajan river (sari) and babolrood (babol). 103 fish whi...
