In terrestrial pulmonate gastropods Cochlodina laminata, Monachoides incarnata, Helicigona lapicida, Arianta arbustorum, Cepaea hortensis, Trochulus hispidus and Succinea putris, the morphological properties of pupil camera-like eyes were studied for first time: location, spatial orientation, change in structure, shape, shape change, relative size, size. Several methods used work: making prepar...

We developed a modified paraffin-embedding histologic technique for processing metallic coil-bearing aneurysm tissues. This modified technique was successfully employed for processing platinum coil-bearing tissue for 30 rabbit aneurysms and 6 swine aneurysms. This technique for sectioning coil-bearing aneurysms resulted in little or no tissue distortion and permitted good preservation of morpho...

BACKGROUND To investigate pulp response to the application of two types adhesive systems (total-etch and self-etch) in human premolar teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cavities limited to enamel walls in all margins with 2.5 mm depth were prepared on buccal surfaces of thirty three human premolars. The cavities were treated with the following adhesive. Single Bond (SB) and Prompt L-Pop (PLP). The ...

This study describes aspects of the infection caused by the myxosporean genus Henneguya, which forms cysts in the bony portion of the gill filaments of Hypophthalmusmarginatus. Specimens of this catfish were acquired dead from artisanal fishermen near the town of Cametá, state of Pará, northern Brazil, between July 2011 and May 2012. They were transported in refrigerated containers to the Carlo...

The ultrastructural changes in renal arterioles and capillaries from three cases of epimembranous nephropathy, one case of minimal change, and one case of minimal change with mild focal proliferation are presented. In addition to the usual subepithelial deposits on the glomerular capillary basement membranes in the cases of epimembranous nephropathy, osmiophilic granular deposits were observed ...

A 57-year-old female who had had a mixed tumor of the submandibular gland for 30 years presented with a cranial metastasis in the ipsilateral occipital region. Detailed histological examinations of the primary tumor failed to detect any carcinomatous component. In contrast, the metastasis contained a carcinomatous component. This histological discrepancy was confirmed by assessment of the expre...

Histological examination of 99 human lacrimal glands showed a relationship between atrophy of the secretory acini and secretory duct obstruction, ascending periductal fibrosis, and obliteration of the adjacent blood vessels caused by lymphocytic and polymorphonuclear inflammation. Investigation of the subgroups of the B lymphocytic series by immunohistochemistry did not show any statistical cha...

The extracts of bark, leaves and stem of A. indica, fruits of P. longum, berries of E. officinalis and seeds G. indicum were prepared using different solvents. Six different combinations of these extracts were tried on male albino rats to study their effects on sperm production on histological changes in the tests of the rats here was no significant change in production and viability of sperms....

Periodontal research involves the use of animal models to better understand the biological processes of periodontal diseases and the potential of new or existing therapies. Currently, ligature-induced periodontitis in rats is the main model used in periodontal research, in this model, alveolar bone loss (ABL) is the main parameter evaluated by radiographic, morphometric, and histological techni...
