Junctional complexes of the blood-testis barrier in the Japanese quail (Coturnix Coturnix japonica) (Elsevier, 2022-10)This study investigated the developmental changes in the adherens junctions, gap junctions, as well as tight junctions forming the blood-testis barrier (BTB) in Japanese quail (Coturnix Coturnix japonica) testis. Testicular ...

(Medpharm Publications, 2022)Nemaline myopathy - a clinically and genetically complex heterogenous group of disorders - is described uncommonly in humans and rarely in animals, and is characterised by progressive muscle weakness. The diagnosis is ...
-
(Springer, 2022-12)Broiler chicken meat is a good source of protein consumed universally, and is one of the most commonly farmed species in world. In addition to providing food, poultry non-edible byproducts also have value. A major advantage ...
-
(Spanish Association of Anatomy, 2022)Intermediate filaments belong to a large family of proteins which contribute to the formation of the cytoskeleton. The immunolocalization of cytoskeletal proteins has been used extensively in the diagnosis of various ...

(Royal Society, 2022-02)Please read abstract in the article.
-
(MDPI, 2022-04-21)G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) facilitate the majority of signal transductions across cell membranes in humans, with numerous diseases attributed to inactivating GPCR mutations. Many of these mutations result in ...
-
(Elsevier, 2021-02)Avian species comprise more than half of all vertebrates yet there is a dearth of information regarding spermatid development in this class of animals. This report of spermiogenesis in the cattle egret, Bubulcus ibis, is ...
-
(Wiley, 2022-08)The effects of the GnRH vaccine Improvac® on testicular and epididymal morphometrics, histology and spermatogenesis were measured in 19 young (15–20 months) colts randomly assigned to one control (saline, castration at 57 ...
-
(Company of Biologists, 2021-02)Mammals in drylands are facing not only increasing heat loads but also reduced water and food availability as a result of climate change. Insufficient water results in suppression of evaporative cooling and therefore ...
-
(PeerJ, 2021-08-23)Diclofenac caused the death of millions of vultures on the Asian subcontinent. Other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have since also been shown to be toxic to vultures with the exception of meloxicam. For ...
-
(Elsevier, 2022-01)Exposure to dibutyl phthalate (DBP) induces testicular damage in mammals. However, studies on the effects of DBP on spermatogenic cells in birds are grossly lacking. Therefore, this study was designed to determine the ...
-
(Elsevier, 2022-02)Prominent ontogenetic changes of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) should occur in mammals whose neonatal diet of milk differs from that of adults, and especially in herbivores (as vegetation is particularly distinct from ...
-
(Elsevier, 2020-09)Ultrastructural studies of the male gamete provide relevant complementary data of value for the clinical assessment of semen quality and assist in determining phylogenetic and structural/functional relationships. This is ...
-
(Wiley, 2020-11)Diclofenac has been responsible for the deaths of millions of vultures on the Asian subcontinent. While the pathology of toxicity is well described, the mechanism of toxicity remains elusive. However, it was postulated ...
-
(NISC (Pty) Ltd and Informa UK Limited (trading as Taylor and Francis Group), 2020)Elephant interaction programs, specifically ones that provide elephant back riding, have come under public scrutiny, and little information exists to show whether these activities affect animal welfare. This study examined ...
-
(Elsevier, 2020-12)It has been established that excess germ cells in normal and in pathological conditions are removed from testicular tissue by the mechanism of apoptosis. Studies on germ cell apoptosis in avian species are grossly lacking, ...
-
Morphological changes associated with Nile crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) phallic glans inflation (Wiley, 2020-06)The crocodylian phallic glans is the distal inflatable structure that makes the most direct contact with the female cloacal and associated reproductive tract openings during copulation. Therefore, its form and function ...
-
(Sociedade Brasileira de Herpetologia, 2020-08)The male crocodylian phallus, an intromittent organ, transfers sperm to the female cloaca during reproduction. During copulation, the distal phallic glans inflates via blood-filled spongiform tissues; it enlarges into an ...
-
(BMC, 2021-02)OBJECTIVE: Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis is a sensitive way of determining the ultrastructure of collagen in tissues. Little is known about how parameters measured by SAXS are afected by preservatives commonly ...
