The vascular supply and tendons of the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles of two adult rats were unilaterally severed and the muscles were allowed to regenerate for 40 days. Serial frozen sections of muscle grafts were cut and stained for…
Neuropeptide Y (NPY)-containing nerve structures were detected in the Syrian hamster gallbladder by using peroxidase-antiperoxidase immunohistochemical staining and immunoelectron microscopic techniques. In addition, Alcian blue-P.A.S. was used to…
The endocardium ultrastructure of 13 embryonic day old hamsters was examined, especially in relationship with the atrial myocytes. The endothelial morphology was described, including the junctional attachments and their relationships with subjacent…
Estrogen receptor-alpha immunoreactivity and mRNAs are present in neurons in locales that innervate genital organs, e.g., parasympathetic pelvic autonomic ganglia, sensory dorsal root and nodose ganglia, and autonomic areas of the lumbosacral spinal…
Brainstem reticular nuclei of amniotes (mammals, birds and reptiles) may share a common phylogenetic origin as demonstrated by their many shared features (hodology, cytoarchitectonics, presence of neurochemicals). By studying characteristics of these…
Projections from medial agranular cortex to brain stem in rat were determined by use of the anterograde tracers Phaseolus vulgaris leucoagglutinin, or wheat germ agglutinin conjugated horseradish peroxidase. Axonal trajectories were also followed by…
UNLABELLED: Ovarian serous cancer is the most common subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer, and is the leading cause of death from gynecologic cancer. There is an important need for exploration of diagnostic and prognostic markers for this disease.…
