ment. An introductory section of this chapter deals with criteria of endocrine function and methods and difficulties encountered in studying endocrine problems. This is a useful part of the book and should be of value to the student. Whereas the first two chapters deal at a general level with the topics of osmoregulation and endocrine control, the following chapters cover the function of these ...

histological and histochemical studies on the pancreas of goose (anser albifrons) were carried out using special staining and light microscope. the pancreas in goose is serous tubuloacinar gland having exocrine and endocrine part. smooth muscle fibres were absent in capsule of pancreas. acinar cells have bizonal shape. intralobular ducts, interlobular and main excretory ducts were present withi...

The objective of this review is to summarize the pathogenic mechanisms responsible for perturbations of endocrine function and development of structural lesions that result in important diseases in domestic and laboratory animals. For each major category, several specific disease problems have been selected to illustrate the functional and morphologic lesions that are characteristic for either ...

The endocrine system maintains a delicate balance of physiologic processes including growth and sexual maturation, energy production and utilization, fluid and electrolyte balance, and circulatory function. Although endocrine regulation of growth and sexual maturation is a significant issue in general pediatrics, disorders of energy production and utilization, fluid and electrolyte balance, and...

The SARS-CoV-2 virus that caused the 2019 new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) pandemic has posed an unprecedented challenge to global health system and scientific community. As of this literature review, claimed more than 6 million lives, 500 people worldwide have already been infected with SARS-CoV-2. In addition basic, pulmonary manifestations disease, as well severe, life-threatening compli...

In the endocrine system, specialized glandular cells secrete hormones, which are carried in the bloodstream to all parts of the body, but only influence the activity of specifically responsive target cells, i.e., those with the appropriate receptor molecules. This is like a TV transmission system, which sends its signal everywhere, but which is only picked up by those receivers tuned to its par...

abstract men-i is a rare genetic disorder classically characterized by a predisposition to tumors of the parathyroid glands, anterior pituitary gland, and pancreatic islet cells. we present a case of men-i syndrome diagnosed using predominantly nuclear medicine imaging followed by radionuclide therapy, thus emphasizing the role of nuclear imaging in diagnosing and treating men-i.

age related cytochemical changes of thymic endocrine cells were studied in 78 day old chicks at five day interval to age of day 60 employing a panel of cytochemical stains. methenamine silver revealed cell morphology including cell processes distinctly while diamine silver revealed a stronger argentaffinity in these cells. the cells had greater affinity for diamine silver compared to methenamin...
