Mancozeb impairs the ultrastructure of mouse granulosa cells in a dose-dependent manner [PDF]
Mancozeb, an ethylene bis-dithiocarbamate, is widely used as a fungicide and exerts reproductive toxicity in vivo and in vitro in mouse oocytes by altering spindle morphology and impairing the ability to fertilize.

Assessment of acrosome and nuclear abnormalities in human spermatozoa with large vacuoles.
BACKGROUND Spermatozoa with large vacuoles (SLV) may have a negative impact on embryo development. The origin of these vacuoles is unknown. We evaluated acrosome and nucleus alterations in isolated SLV, versus unselected spermatozoa. METHODS We studied

Age and diabetes related changes of the retinal capillaries: an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study [PDF]
Normal human aging and diabetes are associated with a gradual decrease of cerebral flow in the brain with changes in vascular architecture. Thickening of the capillary basement membrane and microvascular fibrosis are evident in the central nervous system

Programmed Cell Death and Postharvest Deterioration of Horticultural Produce [PDF]
Programmed cell death (PCD) is a process where cells or tissues are broken down in an orderly and predictable manner, whereby nutrients are re-used by other cells, tissues or plant parts.

Our study used behavioral tests, laser speckle flowmetry, long‐term potentiation, histochemical staining, molecular experiments, and voxel‐based morphometry to evaluate the hippocampal impairments. It demonstrates early functional and structural impairments in the hippocampus contributing to learning and memory deficits after 1 month of BCAS ...

Comparative physiology of salt and water stress.
Plant responses to salt and water stress have much in common. Salinity reduces the ability of plants to take up water, and this quickly causes reductions in growth rate, along with a suite of metabolic changes identical to those caused by water stress ...
