Mechanisms of glucocorticoid-induced growth retardation: Impairment of cartilage mineralizationCells Tissues Organs - Tập 101 Số 2 - Trang 140-149 - 1978
Michael Silbermann, Gila Maor
Immature female mice were treated with daily doses of triamcinolone diacetate. Using histochemical and fluorescent methods, the mineralization pattern of the proximal epiphyseal plate of the humerus was studied at various intervals. Following 1 injection, a noticeable decrease was noted in the oxytetracycline incorporation at the mineralizing zone of the growth plate. By the 10th injection...... hiện toàn bộ
Vimentin and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Human Breast Cancer – Observations in vitro and in vivoCells Tissues Organs - Tập 185 Số 1-3 - Trang 191-203 - 2007

Breast cancer is a highly prevalent disease among women worldwide. While the expression of certain proteins within these tumours is used for prognosis and selection of therapies, there is a continuing need for additional markers to be identified. A considerable amount of current literature, based predominantly on cell culture systems, suggests that a major mechanism responsible for the pro...... hiện toàn bộ
Effects of Ovarian Steroids on Vaginal Smears in the RatCells Tissues Organs - Tập 133 Số 3 - Trang 192-199 - 1988
G.S. Monies, Enrique H. Luque
A correspondence between the appearance of vaginal smears and the layers of the epithelium from which the cells had desquamated was established in untreated rats during the estrous cycle, in control ovariectomized rats and in spayed rats injected with either estrogen or progesterone. The technique for preparing and staining the smears (modified Shorr’s staining procedure) is outlined. A si...... hiện toàn bộ
Defining the E-Cadherin Repressor Interactome in Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition: The PMC42 Model as a Case StudyCells Tissues Organs - Tập 193 Số 1-2 - Trang 23-40 - 2011

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a feature of migratory cellular processes in all stages of life, including embryonic development and wound healing. Importantly, EMT features cluster with disease states such as chronic fibrosis and cancer. The dissolution of the E-cadherin-mediated adherens junction (AJ) is a key preliminary step in EMT and may occur early or late in the growing ...... hiện toàn bộ
Functional implications of felid forelimb anatomyCells Tissues Organs - Tập 102 Số 2 - Trang 111-121 - 1978
W. J. Gonyea
The elbow and wrist anatomy of 17 felid species were studied and compared with that of other representative mammalian carnivores. Based on the shape and position of the olecranon fossa, it was determined that for felids the forelimb cannot travel in a ‘pendulumlike’ motion during locomotion, but must travel through an arch away from the parasagittal plane of the body. For the anterior limb...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of Platelet-Rich Plasma on Chondrogenic Differentiation and Proliferation of Chondrocytes and Mesenchymal Stem CellsCells Tissues Organs - Tập 189 Số 5 - Trang 317-326 - 2009

<i>Background/Aims:</i> Autologous chondrocyte (CC) transplantation has the disadvantages of requiring two surgical interventions and in vitro expansion of cells, implying the risk of cellular dedifferentiation. Our clinical aim is to develop a one-step procedure for autologous CC transplantation, i.e. harvesting, isolation and reimplantation of CC performed in one single surgi...... hiện toàn bộ
