Background: Uterine anomalies are thought to be one of the reasons recurrent miscarriages, and have been found in as many 10% 15% individuals who had several miscarriages. Before submitting patients another pregnancy, it is critical rule out any intrauterine abnormality. In situations pregnancy loss, office hysteroscopy has shown a highly useful technique diagnosing treating anatomical reasons....

The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of hysterosonography in septate uterine congenital abnormalities and more particularly in septate uteri. A total of 14 patients with a history of repeated spontaneous abortion or infertility who had previously undergone hysterosalpingography were included in this study. Patients were first examined by standard transvaginal ultraso...

Nuclear distribution within the extra-radical fungal structures and during spore production in the arbuscular mycorrhizae fungus Glomus intraradices was examined using an in vitro monoxenic culture system. A di-compartmental monoxenic culture system was modified using a nitrocellulose membrane and a coverglass slip for detailed observations. Nuclear distribution was observed using the fluoresce...

Although the correct architecture of epithelial tubes is crucial for the function of organs such as the lung, kidney and vascular system, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that control tube size. We show that mutations in the ATPalpha alpha and nrv2 beta subunits of the Na+/K+ ATPase cause Drosophila tracheal tubes to have increased lengths and expanded diameters. ATPalpha and nrv2...

In a case of the familiar being strange, new work shows that the integrity of the Drosophila cardiac system depends on septate-junction proteins even though the heart lacks discernable septate junctions.
