THE FUNCTION OP THE THYMUS GLAND* [PDF]
Endocrinology, 1919 The function of the thymus gland is less well understood than that of any of the other organs usually enumerated under the terms “glands of internal secretion.” The evidence in favor of the existence of a thymic hormone is extremely meagre, and for the most part is deduced from experiments, the results of which are doubtful in their bearing upon that ...

The Role of miRNAs in Chicken Immune Regulation and Prospects for Disease‐Resistant Breeding
Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.A schematic workflow illustrating the screening of disease‐resistant miRNAs and the generation of miRNA‐based disease‐resistant chickens via PGC‐mediated germline genome editing. ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as pivotal regulators of the immune system, playing a decisive role in shaping disease resistance in chicken.

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...

THE THYMUS GLAND (THYMUS) ASPECTS IN CHILDREN (PART IV). TIMUS AND COVID-19
Мать и дитя в Кузбассе, 2021 At this stage in the development of immunology, it is still difficult to draw the line between the functions of the central and peripheral organs of the immune system, cell populations of the hematopoietic system, neuro-endocrine and connective tissue ...

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The notochord is a midline structure essential for vertebrate embryogenesis, contributing to the development of the nervous system, digestive tract, and vertebral column. In particular, notochord signaling is indispensable for proper patterning and coordinated development of alternating vertebrae and intervertebral discs (IVDs ...
