Structure of the cerebral cortex of the humpback whale,Megaptera novaeangliae(Cetacea, Mysticeti, Balaenopteridae)Anatomical Record - Tập 290 Số 1 - Trang 1-31 - 2007
Patrick R. Hof, Estel Van der Gucht
AbstractCetaceans diverged from terrestrial mammals between 50 and 60 million
years ago and acquired, during their adaptation to a fully aquatic milieu, many
derived features, including echolocation (in odontocetes), remarkable auditory
and communicative abilities, as well as a complex social organization. Whereas
brain structure has been documented in detail in some odontocetes, few reports
exist... hiện toàn bộ
Reconstructing the Locomotor Repertoire of Protopithecus brasiliensis. II. Forelimb MorphologyAnatomical Record - Tập 294 Số 12 - Trang 2048-2063 - 2011
Lauren B. Halenar
AbstractThe majority of previous publications have suggested that the
large‐bodied subfossil Protopithecus brasiliensis was a suspensory ateline with
a locomotor repertoire similar to that of extant Ateles and Brachyteles. This is
unexpected, as the cranial morphology of Protopithecus is very similar to
Alouatta, a genus usually classified as a deliberate quadrupedal climber.

Morphology and Histochemistry of Juvenile Male American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) PhallusAnatomical Record - Tập 295 Số 2 - Trang 328-337 - 2012
Brandon C. Moore, Ketan Mathavan, Louis J. Guillette
AbstractPhalli of male crocodilians transfer sperm to female cloaca during
sexual intercourse, resulting in internal fertilization. For over a century
there have been scientific descriptions of crocodilian phallus morphologies;
however, little work has presented detailed cellular‐level analyses of these
structures. Here we present a histological investigation of the complex
functional anatomy of t... hiện toàn bộ
Review of the Cetacean Nose: Form, Function, and EvolutionAnatomical Record - Tập 297 Số 11 - Trang 2205-2215 - 2014
Annalisa Berta, Eric G. Ekdale, Ted W. Cranford
ABSTRACTThe cetacean nose presents a unique suite of anatomical modifications.
Key among these is posterior movement of the external nares from the tip of the
rostrum to the top of the head. Concomitant with these anatomical changes are
functional changes including the evolution of echolocation in odontocetes, and
reduction of olfaction in Neoceti (crown odontocetes and mysticetes). Anatomical

Distribution of PDLIM1 at actin‐rich structures generated by invasive and adherent bacterial pathogensAnatomical Record - Tập 304 Số 5 - Trang 919-938 - 2021
Aaron S. Dhanda, Diana Yang, Avneen Kooner, Julian A. Guttman
AbstractThe enteric bacterial pathogens Listeria monocytogenes (Listeria) and
enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) remodel the eukaryotic actin
cytoskeleton during their disease processes. Listeria generate slender
actin‐rich comet/rocket tails to move intracellularly, and later, finger‐like
membrane protrusions to spread amongst host cells. EPEC remain extracellular,
but generate similar acti... hiện toàn bộ
Architecture of the Blood‐Spleen Barrier in the Soft‐Shelled Turtle, Pelodiseus SinensisAnatomical Record - Tập 292 Số 8 - Trang 1079-1087 - 2009
Huijun Bao, Meiying Li, Jiang Wang, Jun‐Hui Qin, Chunsheng Xu, Nainan Hei, Ping Yang, Jameel Ahmed Gandahi, Qiusheng Chen
AbstractWe investigated the structure of the soft‐shelled turtle, Pelodiseus
sinensi, spleen and demonstrated that there were several microanatomical
peculiarities by light and transmission electron microscopy. In the spleen, the
white pulp of the spleen was composed of two compartments, the periarteriolar
lymphatic sheath (PALS) and periellipsoidal lymphatic sheath (PELS). No lymph
nodules and ma... hiện toàn bộ
The Carotid Sinus Nerve—Structure, Function, and Clinical ImplicationsAnatomical Record - Tập 302 Số 4 - Trang 575-587 - 2019
Andrea Porzionato, Veronica Macchi, Carla Stecco, Raffaele De
ABSTRACTInterest has been renewed in the anatomy and physiology of the carotid
sinus nerve (CSN) and its targets (carotid sinus and carotid body, CB), due to
recent proposals of surgical procedures for a series of common pathologies, such
as carotid sinus syndrome, hypertension, heart failure, and insulin resistance.
The CSN originates from the glossopharyngeal nerve soon after its appearance

Amifostine Protective Effect on Cisplatin‐Treated Rat TestisAnatomical Record - Tập 291 Số 7 - Trang 797-808 - 2008
Leandra Campos Lirdi, Taiza Stumpp, Estela Sasso‐Cerri, Sandra Maria Miraglia
AbstractCisplatin is a potent drug used in clinical oncology but causes
spermatogenesis damage. Amifostine is a drug used against toxicity caused by
ionizing irradiation and chemotherapeutic drugs. Since cisplatin provokes
fertility and induces germ cell apoptosis and necrosis, we proposed to evaluate
the amifostine cytoprotective action on testes of cisplatin‐treated rats.
