Axoplasmic transport in the toad Bufo marinus

Brain Research, 1975
The rate and course of axoplasmic transport from the eighth dorsal root ganglion cell bodies into the sciatic nerve of the toad Bufo marinus were studied. Concentrated tritiated proline was hydraulically injected into a surgically exposed dorsal root ganglion of animals maintained at 19 +/- 0.5 degrees C.

Cardiac output in conscious toads (Bufo marinus)

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1994
ABSTRACT Cardiac output and peripheral resistance have not been measured in conscious anuran amphibians, although some data exist for pithed and anaesthetized frogs (Shelton and Jones, 1965a,b; Shelton, 1970; Tazawa et al. 1979). The periodic lung ventilation characteristic of conscious anurans could increase cardiac output reflexively ...

Fate of exogenous marinobufagin-3H in Bufo marinus

Biochemical Pharmacology, 1969
Abstract After marinobufagin-3H was injected into toads, 80 per cent of the radioactivity could be extracted from various tissues 2–3 months later. One-half of the tissue radioactivity was found in the ovarian tissues, of which 80–90 per cent could be identified as unchanged marinobufagin by thin-layer chromatography and reverse isotope dilution ...

Spontaneous chromomycosis in the marine toad (Bufo marinus)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1992
Post-mortem examinations were performed on two marine toads, one animal showing neurological disorders and the other multifocal dermatitis. In one case, lesions consisted of a severe granulomatous encephalomyelitis and in the other of multiple granulomas in the nasal cavity, lungs, heart, bone marrow, ovaries and skin.

Renal vascular anatomy of the toad (Bufo marinus)

Cell and Tissue Research, 1978
The renal vasculature of the toad, Bufo marinus, was studied mainly by means of scanning electron microscopy of vascular corrosion casts. All arterial branches terminated in a glomerulus. Each glomerulus was supplied by only one afferent arteriole. No shunts between afferent and efferent arterioles were observed.

Microbodies (peroxisomes) in the toad, Bufo marinus

Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie, 1970
Microbodies (peroxisomes), a group of cytoplasmic organelles enriched in catalase, are demonstrated in the toad, Bufo marinus, by light and electron microscopy by means of a cytochemical staining procedure that demonstrates the peroxidatic activity of catalase with diaminobenzidine (DAB).

Prolactin, calcitonin and blood calcium in the toads Bufo boreas and Bufo marinus

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1971
Abstract Bufo boreas and B. marinus show a hypocalcemic response to a single injection of porcine calcitonin (significant in the latter). Chronic treatment results in hypercalcemia. Ovine prolactin treatment results in a tendency toward hypercalcemia in all cases, which was not significant in any single experiment.

Skull allometry in the marine toad,Bufo marinus

Journal of Morphology, 1999
Scaling predictions pioneered by A.V. Hill state that isometric changes in kinematics result from isometric changes in size. These predictions have been difficult to support because few animals display truly isometric growth. An exception to this rule is said to be the toads in the genus Bufo, which can grow over three orders of magnitude. To determine
