The digestive tract exhibits region-specific morphology and cytodifferentiation along the anteroposterior axis. We analyzed the spatial expression patterns of Hox genes belonging to the HoxA and HoxB cluster (Hoxa-4 approximately a-9, Hoxb-5 approximately b-9) in the developing chick digestive tract. The expression domains of these Hox genes correlated with morphological subdivision of the dige...

As reported by earlier investigators, the epithelium of the digestive tubules is composed of two cell-types. One type of cell is glandular, the other type is absorptive and digestive, and to a lesser extent secretory. The latter type of cell also contains glycogen and numerous lipid globules, so that the digestive gland as a whole contains a large quantity of reserve food material. The epitheli...

this study was designed to investigate the effects of different levels of tarragon powder on general performance and anetometric, properties of digestive system of male broiler chickens. 200 one-day-old ross 308 male broiler chickens in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 5 replicates per treatment and 10 birds in each replicate were used. experimental diets were set on the bas...

due to the importance of adult artemia in aquaculture, information regarding the digestive enzyme activities variation with inexpensive diets has great importance in artemia at different life stages. in this study, the effect of different inexpensive diets on digestive enzyme activities, including trypsin, amylse and lipase of artemia urmiana was investigated in different life stages. the exper...

an experiment was carried out to develop and evaluate a semi-purified diet suitable for fiber related studies without negative impacts on performance, serum biochemistry and intestinal morphology of growing japanese quails. total of 144 japanese quail chicks were used in a factorial arrangement using completely randomized design with 6 treatments, 4 replicates of 6 quails in each replicate. the...

Chloroquine resistance in the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, arises from decreased accumulation of the drug in the ;digestive vacuole' of the parasite, an acidic compartment in which chloroquine exerts its primary toxic effect. It has been proposed that changes in the pH of the digestive vacuole might underlie the decreased accumulation of chloroquine by chloroquine-resistant pa...

The purpose of this study was to review clinical studies on digestive system-related pathophysiological symptoms of each Sasang type to obtain the generalizable typespecific clinical features, which are important for the diagnosis of the Sasang type and subsequent disease treatment. Sasang typology and digestive system symptom-related keywords were used to search through eight domestic and fore...
