Body and head shape among fishes both vary between environments influenced by water velocity and across ontogeny. Although the shape changes associated with variation in average water velocity and ontogeny are well documented, few studies have tested for

Ontogeny of neuroembryology [PDF]
This essay commemorates the 100th anniversary of the birth of neuroembryology. One cannot, of course, ascribe the beginning of a branch of science to a single year, but the years between 1885 and 1890 saw major publications by the German anatomist Wilhelm His (1831–1904) and the Spanish histologist S.

Ontogeny of Myeloid Cells [PDF]
Granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells (DCs) represent a subgroup of leukocytes, collectively called myeloid cells. During the embryonic development of mammalians, myelopoiesis occurs in a stepwise fashion that begins in the yolk sac and ends up in the bone marrow (BM).

The Ontogeny of Monocyte Subsets [PDF]
Classical and non-classical monocytes, and the macrophages and monocyte-derived dendritic cells they produce, play key roles in host defense against pathogens, immune regulation, tissue repair and many other processes throughout the body. Recent studies have revealed previously unappreciated heterogeneity among monocytes that may explain this ...

On growth and form of irregular coiled-shell of a terrestrial snail: Plectostoma concinnum (Fulton, 1901) (Mollusca: Caenogastropoda: Diplommatinidae) [PDF]
The molluscan shell can be viewed as a petrified representation of the organism’s ontogeny and thus can be used as a record of changes in form during growth.

Ontogeny of the Human Pelvis [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe human pelvis has evolved over time into a remarkable structure, optimised into an intricate architecture that transfers the entire load of the upper body into the lower limbs, while also facilitating bipedal movement. The pelvic girdle is composed of two hip bones, os coxae, themselves each formed from the gradual fusion of the ischium ...

Ontogeny of purinergic receptor-regulated Ca2+ signaling in mouse cortical collecting duct epithelium [PDF]
Changes in ATP-induced increase in {[}Ca2+], during collecting duct ontogeny were studied in primary monolayer cultures of mouse ureteric bud (UB) and cortical collecting duct (CCD) cells by Fura-PE3 fluorescence ratio imaging.

Summary: Definitive hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) first emerge in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region in both mice and humans. An ex vivo culture approach has enabled recapitulation and analysis of murine HSC development.

Ontogenesis of the asymmetric parapineal organ in the zebrafish epithalamus
The parapineal organ is a midline-derived epithalamic structure that in zebrafish adopts a left-sided position at embryonic stages to promote the development of left-right asymmetries in the habenular nuclei.
