Ontogeny of the ostracod Conchoprimitia osekensis (Pribyl, 1979) from the Darriwilian of the Prague Basin (Czech Republic) [PDF]
The ontogeny of the species Conchoprimitia osekensis (Pribyl, 1979) from the Šárka Formation (lower and middle Darriwilian) is evaluated. Eight ontogenetic stages (A-8 to A-1) and one adult specimen are described and illustrated. This study displays that

Ontogeny of Tumor-Associated Macrophages
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) represent the main immune cell population of the tumor microenvironment in most cancer. For decades, TAM have been the focus of intense investigation to understand how they modulate the tumor microenvironment and their ...

Learning steers the ontogeny of an efficient hunting sequence in zebrafish larvae
Goal-directed behaviors may be poorly coordinated in young animals but, with age and experience, behavior progressively adapts to efficiently exploit the animal’s ecological niche.

Origin and ontogeny of lung macrophages: from mice to humans
Macrophages are tissue‐resident myeloid cells with essential roles in host defense, tissue repair, and organ homeostasis. The lung harbors a large number of macrophages that reside in alveoli. As a result of their strategic location, alveolar macrophages
