Elovl5 is required for proper action potential conduction along peripheral myelinated fibers
Glia, Volume 69, Issue 10, Page 2419-2428, October 2021., 2021 MAIN POINTS Consequences on peripheral nerves of Elovl5 deletion: Unbalance between saturated versus unsaturated fatty acids in membrane phospholipids. Loss of myelin compactness Slower action potential conduction Abstract Elovl5 elongates fatty acids with 18 carbon atoms and in cooperation with other enzymes guarantees the normal levels of very long ...

GLOMERULAR NUMBER AND CAPILLARY DIMENSIONS IN THE NORMAL LAMB KIDNEY
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011 Reduced nephron endowment, either inherited or acquired, has been linked to adult renal pathology as well as hypertension. The sheep provides an excellent model for studying nephrogenesis and renal development because, as in humans, nephrogenesis is ...

NEPHRON NUMBER IN THE OFFSPRING OF RATS FED A LOW PROTEIN DIET DURING PREGNANCY
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011 In experimental studies it has been shown that intrauterine growth retardation and reduced kidney growth during development are associated with significant decreases in nephron endowment.

MODERN STEREOLOGICAL EVALUATION IN THE AGING HUMAN SUBSTANTIA NIGRA
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011 Quantitative estimation of neuronal numbers in the human substantia nigra (SN) can be achieved by a conventional single section (SS) count or by the more modern stereological disector (DS) count.

Physiological Reports, Volume 7, Issue 21, November 2019., 2019 Many women drink alcohol around conception but impacts on renal development are not known. This study found that periconceptional alcohol exposure in rats resulted in reduced nephron endowment in offspring and female but not male offspring having a higher urine flow.

Global Trends in Application of Stereology as a Quantitative Tool in Biomedical Research
BioMed Research International, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 Stereology is a quantitative and comparative method that utilizes planes, lines, and points for the estimation of three‐dimensional parameters in morphological studies. It primarily focuses on geometrical features of objects such as number, density, length, area, and volume.
