An embryonal carcinoma was diagnosed in the abdominal cavity of a 55-day-old male calf. Macroscopically, a large volume of ascitic fluid was observed along with white to yellowish-white masses of various sizes densely located on the abdominal wall and the surface of abdominal organs. There was an
Bandeiraea (Griffonia) simplicifolia lectin-I, isolectin A(4)(GS I-A(4)), which is cytotoxic to the human colon cancer cell lines, is one of two lectin families derived from its seed extract. It contains only a homo-oligomer of subunit A, and is most specific for GalNAcalpha1-->. In order to
The management of overweight may include the use of dietary supplements targeted to counter the feeling of hunger. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial has been performed in 20 overweight females. These subjects were randomly assigned to supplement their diet with either an extract
Differences in cell surface carbohydrates and in laminin and fibronectin synthesis between 2 Ehrlich ascites tumor (EAT) cell lines, the adherent and non-adherent EAT cells, have been studied. The adherent EAT (a-EAT) cells grow in monolayer in vitro in the presence of fetal bovine serum. The
Proliferation of Pasteurella haemolytica serotype 1 in the nasal cavity following stress or viral infection is an important event in the pathogenesis of bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis. Enhanced adhesion of P. haemolytica to nasal mucosa could be one factor that predisposes animals to this
Ehrlich ascites tumor cells were strongly agglutinated by 0.4 micrograms/mL Griffonia simplicifolia I-B4 isolectin (GS I-B4), indicating the presence of nonreducing terminal alpha-D-galactopyranose (alpha-D-Galp) residues on the cell surface. Incubation of the cells with GS I-B4 labeled with either
Previous studies have shown that embryonic rat and human dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells survive grafting to the cavity of extirpated adult rat DRG. Furthermore, grafted human embryonic neurons were shown to send axons peripherally and into the spinal cord, where they establish functional synaptic
The peripheral olfactory system has a remarkable capacity for repair. We have performed an immunohistochemical study of the cellular changes that occur after zinc sulfate irrigation of the nasal cavity. The rapid loss of epithelial cells was followed by the proliferation of basal cells and the
The taste buds of the fungiform papillae, circumvallate papilla, foliate papillae, soft palate and epiglottis of the rat oral cavity were examined by lectin histochemistry to elucidate the relationships between expression of glycoconjugates and innervation. Seven out of 21 lectins showed moderate to
