A panel of biological tests reveals developmental effects of pharmaceutical pollutants on late stage zebrafish embryos.

Description : Standard toxicological assays using the zebrafish model system evaluate lethality and teratogenicity upon exposure during the first two days after fertilization. We tested the biological effects of several widely used drugs on zebrafish by acute treatment for 24hours starting at late embryonic stage...

Structurally conserved C-RFa revealed prolactin releasing activity in vitro and gene expression changes in pituitary of seasonally acclimatized carp.

Description : Here we show the cloning and characterization of a novel homolog of prepro C-RFa cDNA from Cyprinus carpio. The deduced preprohormone precursor of 115 amino acids leads to a mature bioactive peptide of 20 amino acids with identical sequence to other teleost C-RFa. Modeling of the mature C-RFa peptid...

The ornithine decarboxylase gene is essential for cell survival during early murine development

Description : Overexpression and inhibitor studies have suggested that the c-Myc target gene for ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the enzyme which converts ornithine to putrescine, plays an important role in diverse biological processes, including cell growth, differentiation, transformation, and apoptosis. To expl...

Structure and functional analysis of a tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) growth hormone gene: activation and repression by pituitary transcription factor Pit-1

Description : A gene encoding the Tilapia mossambica (Oreochromis mossambicus) growth hormone (tiGH) was isolated and sequenced. The gene spans 5.6 kb, including 3.7 kb of 5' and 0.2 kb of 3' flanking sequences and a 1.7-kb transcription unit comprised of six exons and five introns. The gene and the 5' flanking r...

Pro239Ser: a novel recessive mutation of the Pit-1 gene in seven Middle Eastern children with growth hormone, prolactin, and thyrotropin deficiency

Description : Pit-1, a member of the POU-homeo domain protein family, is one of the transcription factors responsible for anterior pituitary development and pituitary-specific gene expression. Here, we describe seven children with GH, PRL, and TSH deficiency from three, reportedly unrelated, Middle Eastern famili...

At least two expressed genes for transcription factors Pitx2 and Rpx are present in common carp and are upregulated during winter acclimatization.

Description : The mechanisms of seasonal acclimatization in eurythermal fish such as common carp are not fully understood. Here, we concentrate on the regulation of pituitary factors, as this organ was shown to be highly affected by seasonal changes. We cloned and sequenced two different cDNAs for each of the tra...

Automatic localization of interest points in zebrafish images with tree-based methods

Description : In many biological studies, scientists assess effects of experimental conditions by visual inspection of microscopy images. They are able to observe whether a protein is expressed or not, if cells are going through normal cell cycles, how organisms evolve in different experimental conditions, etc. B...

Massively Multiuser Virtual Environments using Object Based Sharing Michael Kim-Thomas Müller, Michael Peter

Description : Massively multiuser virtual environments (MMVEs) are becoming increasingly popular with millions of users. Commercial implementations typically rely on a traditional client/server architecture controlling the virtual world state of shared data at a central point. Message passing mechanisms are used ...

Paget-von Schroetter-Syndrom als Arbeitsunfall

Description : Das Paget-von Schroetter-Syndrom ist eine tiefe Venenthrombose der Vena axillaris und/oder der Vena subclavia. Sie ist verbunden mit den typischen Zeichen einer tiefen Venenthrombose, wie Schmerz, Schwellung, Zyanose und evtl. erkennbare Kollateralvenenzeichnung. Neben iatrogenen Ursachen, Malignome...

Rezidivierende Perniosis auf dem Boden einer anlagebedingten Akrozyanose [Posterbeitrag]

Description : Wir berichten über den ungewöhnlichen Fall einer beruflich erworbenen chronischen Perniosis (Frostbeulen) in Verbindung mit einer anlagebedingten Akrozyanose. Als Metzgereifachverkäuferin war unsere Patientin über Jahre beruflich kälteexponiert. Von gutachterlicher Seite wurde letztlich ein Kältesch...
