The use of indirect measures of neuronal injury or neuroprotection, such as brain weight or the neuronal density of neurons, can lead to misinterpretations of biological processes.

Abstract Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) causes the impairment of female fertility and elevates the risk of metabolic disorders. The current study aimed to evaluate the effects of rosmarinic acid (Ros) on the ovarian histo‐stereology, the level of reproductive hormones, and inflammation in a rat model of PCOS.

Enhanced resolution of 7 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners has considerably advanced our knowledge of structure and function in human and animal brains. Post-industrialized countries are particularly prone to an ever-increasing number of ageing

In the telencephalon, apical specializations such as cilia, primary cilia, and microvilli with varying morphologies were observed. Goblet‐like cells, arranged in a single row along the ventricular wall, contained secretory vesicles in their apical regions. Light microscopy demonstrated that these secretory vesicles had a carbohydrate‐rich structure, as

Sampling for stereology in lungs
The present article reviews the relevant stereological estimators for obtaining reliable quantitative structural data from the lungs. Stereological sampling achieves reliable, quantitative information either about the whole lung or complete lobes, whilst

The Complexly Parcellated, Yet Quantitatively Reduced, Orexinergic/Hypocretinergic System of Humans
Immunohistochemical staining for orexin‐A reveals the novel parvocellular orexinergic neuronal cluster (left) in the human brain. In comparison to the more typically observed orexinergic neurons of the main cluster (right), the parvocellular neurons have much smaller soma. Scale bar = 100 µm, applies to both images.

Oxidative stress is a critical contributor to the pathophysiology of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury associated with testicular torsion (TT) and detorsion (D) (TT/D). This study examines the antioxidative properties of the probiotics Lactobacillus (L.) reuteri and Lactobacillus (L.) rhamnosus in ameliorating TT/D‐induced oxidative and histological ...

ESTIMATION OF THE NUMBER OF NEURONS IN THE HIPPOCAMPUS OF RATS WITH PENICILLIN INDUCED EPILEPSY
Epilepsy is a neurological disease arising from strong and uncontrollable electrical firings of a group of neurons in the central nervous system. Experimental epileptic models have been developed to assess the physiopathology of epileptic seizures.

Stereological Analysis of the Rhesus Monkey Perirhinal and Parahippocampal Cortices
•The laminar organization of the monkey perirhinal and parahippocampal cortices supports the view that high‐order association cortices are characterized by relatively large superficial layers, with larger neurons and a lower neuronal density. •Species differences in the relative size and number of neurons in these areas indicate a greater relative ...
