Hormonal profile of Mediterranean green turtles (Chelonia mydas)

TURKISH JOURNAL OF VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES, 2020
The beaches of Turkey are important nesting habitats of Chelonia mydas sea turtles and the determination of their health and disease status is critical in sustaining healthy populations. Limited data currently exist on the hormone values required to determine the status of reproductive capabilities of sea turtles. This study aimed to collect basic data

Green Turtles (Chelonia mydas) Have Novel Asymmetrical Antibodies [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2015
Abstract Igs in vertebrates comprise equally sized H and L chains, with exceptions such as H chain–only Abs in camels or natural Ag receptors in sharks. In Reptilia, Igs are known as IgYs. Using immunoassays with isotype-specific mAbs, in this study we show that green turtles (Chelonia mydas) have a 5.7S 120-kDa IgY comprising two ...

Correlation of Hypoxia and Pro-senescence Protein Expression in Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas) Lung Epithelial and Dermal Fibroblast Cell Culture

Journal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2018
Recent studies have shown hypoxia-induced gene expression correlated with cellular senescence. HIF-1α (hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha), p53, and pRB were induced under hypoxia and correlated with cellular senescence.

Cutaneous fibropapillomas of green turtles (Chelonia mydas)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1989
Six juvenile green turtles (Chelonia mydas) from the Indian River Lagoon System, Florida, U.S.A., with multiple cutaneous fibropapillomas, were kept in isolation and examined over a 6-month period. Histologically, the fibropapillomas consisted of a slightly to moderately hyperplastic epidermis overlying a thickened hypercellular dermis. In the earliest

A review of fibropapillomatosis in Green turtles (Chelonia mydas) [PDF]

The Veterinary Journal, 2016
Despite being identified in 1938, many aspects of the pathogenesis and epidemiology of fibropapillomatosis (FP) in marine turtles are yet to be fully uncovered. Current knowledge suggests that FP is an emerging infectious disease, with the prevalence varying both spatially and temporally, even between localities in close proximity to each other. A high

Renal oxalosis in free-ranging green turtles Chelonia mydas [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2008
Eighteen green turtles Chelonia mydas recovered from the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of Florida and Tortuguero National Park, Costa Rica, were diagnosed with renal oxalosis by histopathological examination. Affected sea turtles included 14 adults and 4 immature animals, which comprised 26% (18/69) of green turtle necropsy cases available for review ...
