Transrectal ultrasonography of the adrenal glands in donkeys (Equus asinus) [PDF]
, 2016 Little information is available for medical imaging in donkeys and no report about adrenal glands ultrasonography can be found in scientific literature. The feasibility of transrectal ultrasonography of the adrenal glands was tested on 30 healthy donkeys

Effects of Monovalent and Divalent Cations on Ca2+ Fluxes Across Chromaffin Secretory Membrane Vesicles [PDF]
, 1983 : Bovine chromaffin secretory vesicle ghosts loaded with Na+ were found to take up Ca2+ when incubated in K+ media or in sucrose media containing micromolar concentrations of free Ca2+. Li+- or choline+loaded ghosts did not take up Ca2+.

Extra-adrenal phaeochromocytoma in a resource poor setting: A case report
Endocrine Regulations, 2022 Phaeochromocytomas are catecholamine-secreting tumors arising in the chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla. They are a rare cause of secondary hypertension. However, catecholamine secreting tumors may also be found in the extra-adrenal sites, producing

Synthetic microneurotrophins: Neurotrophin receptors for therapeutics of neurodegenerative diseases
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Neurodegenerative disorders are characterised by the chronic progressive degeneration of specific neuronal subtypes, neuroinflammation, myelin damage and synaptic loss. Despite their growing incidence, advancements in effective treatments remain limited, because of lack of knowledge for the aetiology of the diverse pathophysiology to design systematic ...

Beyond synapses: cytoplasmic connections in brain function and evolution
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Following Ramón y Cajal's groundbreaking contributions to the identification of synapses, research in neuroscience predominantly focused on their pivotal role in neural communication (the neuron doctrine), overlooking an intriguing possibility suggested by Golgi of non‐synaptic interactions among neural cells.

Catecholamines of the adrenal medula and their morphological changes during adaptation to repeated immobilization stress [PDF]
Changes of the adrenal medulla of rats were studied in the course of adaptation to repeated immobilization stress. An increase in the number of cells in the adrenal medulla was found in the adapted animals; this increase was confirmed by weight indices ...

Chromogranin A in the pancreatic islet [PDF]
, 1986 Chromogranin A (CGA) is the major soluble protein within secretory vesicles of chromaffin cells. A polyclonal antiserum was raised against bovine CGA and characterized in two-dimensional immunoblots. Cellular and subcellular distribution of CGA in bovine

Homeostasis as the Mechanism of Evolution. [PDF]
, 2015 Homeostasis is conventionally thought of merely as a synchronic (same time) servo-mechanism that maintains the status quo for organismal physiology. However, when seen from the perspective of developmental physiology, homeostasis is a robust, dynamic ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We discuss the intricate relationship between the evolution of the concept of stress and the development of the concept of animal welfare. After a brief review of the main concepts of animal welfare, we analyse important steps in the evolution of the concept of stress, starting from the mechanistic approach of the General Adaptation Syndrome ...
