The structure of a tendon is an important example of complexity of ECM three-dimensional organization. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a macromolecular network with both structural and regulatory functions. ECM components belong to four major types of macromolecules: the collagens, elastin, proteoglycans, and noncollagenous glycoproteins. Tendons are

Dispersal of Silica-Scaled Chrysophytes in Northern Water Bodies
Silica-scaled chrysophytes have an ancient origin; nowadays they inhabit many northern water bodies. As the territories above the 60th parallel north were under the influence of glaciers during the Late Pleistocene, the local water bodies and their ...

A high abundance of planktonic microalgae is typically thought to be related to their ‘bloom’, that is, to active population growth. Diatom blooms in the photic zone of Lake Baikal generally occur during hydrological spring (April–June); when the summer ...

Diatoms are capable of accumulating substantial amounts of triacylglycerides in their cells, which differ in the composition of fatty acids depending on the conditions of cultivation, making them attractive subjects in biotechnology. In the present study,

Ultrastructural Immunochemistry [PDF]
INTRODUCTIONThe use of colloidal gold technology was undoubtedly the most significant event in the development of immunochemistry. Gold particles are particularly useful for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies, because they scatter electrons strongly and even small particles are clearly visible under the electron microscope.

Strategy for the Removal of Satellite Bacteria from the Cultivated Diatom
Multiple ecological and genetic studies of diatom algae require an axenic culture. However, algae-associated bacterial biofilms often form in diatom-produced mucus, both during creation of monoclonal cultures from single cells and during biomass growth ...

Quantification of Protein Uptake by Endocytosis in Carnivorous Nepenthales
Carnivorous plants adsorb prey-derived nutrients partly by endocytosis. This study quantifies endocytosis in Drosophyllum lusitanicum, Drosera capensis, Drosera roseana, Dionaea muscipula and Nepenthes × ventrata.

On the ultrastructure of hibernoma [PDF]
An electron-microscopic study of hibernoma and a review of the histogenesis, development, and post-natal structural composition of brown and white adipose tissue are presented. The ultrastructural features of hibernoma include multivacuolated and univacuolated cells containing variable numbers of lipid vacuoles, abundant moderately pleomorphic ...

Novel mesostructured inclusions in the epidermal lining of Artemia franciscana ovisacs show optical activity [PDF]
Background Biomineralization, e.g., in sea urchins or mollusks, includes the assembly of mesoscopic superstructures from inorganic crystalline components and biopolymers.

Uptake of Radionuclides by Bryophytes in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone
The “Chernobyl nuclear disaster” released huge amounts of radionuclides, which are still detectable in plants and sediments today. Bryophytes (mosses) are primitive land plants lacking roots and protective cuticles and therefore readily accumulate ...
