The early stages of heart development: insights from chicken embryos [PDF]
The heart is the first functioning organ in the developing embryo and the detailed understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in its formation provides insights into congenital malformations affecting its function and therefore the ...

Vital dye labelling demonstrates a sacral neural crest contribution to the enteric nervous system of chick and mouse embryos [PDF]
We have used the vital dye, DiI, to analyze the contribution of sacral neural crest cells to the enteric nervous system in chick and mouse embryos. In order to label premigratory sacral neural crest cells selectively, DiI was injected into the lumen of ...

Biomolecules Triggering Altered Food Intake during Pathogenic Challenge in Chicks
Food intake is regulated by several complicated synergistic mechanisms that are affected by a variety of internal and external influences. Some of these factors include those that are released from pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses, and most

Effect of lithium on acetylcholine esterase activity, and isozyme pattern in developing chick brain [PDF]
Acetylcholine Esterase is an enzyme, which hydrolyses acetylcholine and is used as a marker for cholinergic neural function. It is known to be involved in synaptogenesis.

Fluoride Toxicity in the Chick
Abstract INTRODUCTION YOUNG chicks and adult poultry have exhibited higher tolerance levels for fluoride than most mammalian species. The chick’s ability to tolerate larger quantities of fluoride is credited to a lower intestinal absorption, and perhaps a more effective elimination of fluoride (Haman et al., 1936; Phillips et al., 1935). Kick et al.

Agrin isoforms and their role in synaptogenesis [PDF]
Agrin is thought to mediate the motor neuron-induced aggregation of synaptic proteins on the surface of muscle fibers at neuromuscular junctions. Recent experiments provide direct evidence in support of this hypothesis, reveal the nature of agrin ...

Evaluation of the Effect of Bacillus Subtilis and Pediococcus Acidilactici Mix on Serum Biochemistry, Growth Promotation of Body and Visceral Organs in Lohmann Brown Chicks [PDF]
Recently the use of antibiotic growth promoter (AGPs) in poultry feed is banned in China, leading to the increasing demand for AGPs substitutes. Probiotics have been considered as a potential substitute.

Transmission of Pullorum Disease from Chick to Chick
Abstract That pullorum disease is spread from infected chicks to healthy chicks in the brooder is fairly well established. The high mortality often experienced cannot be explained entirely on the basis of initial infection from the egg. In some way the causative organism is passed from chick to chick.
