AIM To investigate the expression of CD56 in dog odontogenesis in order to elucidate the expression found in ameloblastomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Immunohistochemical analysis of CD56 expression of developing dog teeth in the bud, cap and bell stages including the remnants of the dental lamina. RESULTS Weak CD56 expression was observed in the dental epithelium during the bud stage with inte...

The arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) motif in fibronectin (FN) represents the major binding site for α5β1 and αvβ3 integrins. Mice lacking a functional RGD motif in FN (FN(RGE/RGE)) or α5 integrin develop identical phenotypes characterized by embryonic lethality and a severely shortened posterior trunk with kinked neural tubes. Here we show that the FN(RGE/RGE) embryos arrest both segmentation ...

When it first appears at stage HH16, the wing bud is already polarized along the dorsoventral axis. To study the mechanisms leading to the establishment of its dorsoventral polarity, we decided to focus our attention on an earlier stage (HH13). Using the quail-chick chimera system, we first show that the presumptive wing mesoderm occupies the medial half of the somatopleure at the level of somi...

BACKGROUND Although as humans we lose our tails in the second month of embryonic development, a persistent tail is a prominent structural feature of most adult vertebrates. Indeed, the post-anal tail is part of the definition of a chordate. The internal organization of the developing tail--with neural tube, notochord and paired somites--is the same as that of the main body axis, so it can be ex...

In Ayurveda, Blumea lacera extraction has been found cast-off in the management of various sympathetic diseases and is also to exhibit hypoglycaemic, anti-diarrhoeal, larvicidal, antioxidant antimicrobial properties. contain astringent, stomachic, antipyretic, diuretic, cure bronchitis fever. To find out most suitable part plant which will be used for killing mosquito larvae. How do produce eff...

The undifferentiated vertebrate limb bud is a selforganizing system. If transplanted to a favorable ectopic location, the limb bud is capable of developing into a morphologically normal limb (Harrison, 1918), and the anterior-posterior polarity of the transplanted limb is determined by the graft rather than the host environment. Great progress has recently been made in understanding the molecul...

primary bud necrosis is a physiological disorder that adversely affects the performance and yield in the vineyards. the present study was conducted to determine the time and intensity of bud necrosis incidence as well as the related anatomical changes in the developing buds of grapevine cv. askari. a factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design of 4 replications was carried out fo...

OBJECTIVE To characterize lymphatic vessel morphology in lower extremity lymphedema using MR lymphography at 3T. STUDY DESIGN Forty females with lower extremity lymphedema secondary to gynecologic carcinoma treatment underwent MR lymphography (MRL) at 3T. Lymphatic vessel morphology in normal and affected limbs was compared. RESULTS The median diameter of the lymphatic vessels in swollen ca...

in this study, the effects of different types of hand plucking were studied on green leaf yield and black tea quality. bud and a leaf, bud and two leaves, bud and three leaves and bud and four leaves were the types of hand plucking. plucking was down on chine’s hybrid tea and clone 100 in fuman tea research station. shoots were plucked in flashing period regularly during three years. green leaf...
