Striated Musculature: Embryonic and Fetal Development

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: The different embryological origins of striated muscle tissue make it an interesting tissue but at the same time difficult to understand, this is how the musculature of the face comes from the first pharyngeal arch, on the other hand. The muscles of the tongue derive from the somites. The muscle...

Estudio Histológico en Embriones de Cobayo (Cavia porcellus) y su Utilidad como Modelo para la Comprensión del Desarrollo Embrionario Humano

Int. j. morphol; 42 (1), 2024
El cobayo es un modelo animal ampliamente utilizado en la investigación biomédica debido a sus similitudes biológicas con los seres humanos. El objetivo de nuestro estudio es proporcionar sustento morfológico para utilizar preparados histológicos de embriones de cobayo como modelo de estudio para co...

Embryo development is impaired by sperm mitochondrial-derived ROS

Biol. Res; 57 (), 2024
BACKGROUND: Basal energetic metabolism in sperm, particularly oxidative phosphorylation, is known to condition not only their oocyte fertilising ability, but also the subsequent embryo development. While the molecular pathways underlying these events still need to be elucidated, reactive oxygen species (...

Ruptura prematura de membranas ovulares

La ruptura prematura de las membranas ovulares se define como la pérdida de la integridad del amnios y corion antes del inicio del trabajo de parto, afecta el 3 % de los embarazos, causa un tercio de los partos pretérminos, los cuales ocupan el 10,49 % de los nacimientos y es el o...

Study of ex-ovo embryonic development of Gallus gallus domesticus

Int. j. morphol; 41 (2), 2023
SUMMARY: The domestic chicken is a species of bird that has been extensively studied in regard to its biology and as a model organism for science. The reproduction of the species is by the laying of fertilized eggs, which in a period of 21 days will develop a chick inside. Several methods have been descr...

DYRK1-mediated phosphorylation of endocytic components is required for extracellular lumen expansion in ascidian notochord

Biol. Res; 56 (), 2023
BACKGROUND: The biological tube is a basal biology structure distributed in all multicellular animals, from worms to humans, and has diverse biological functions. Formation of tubular system is crucial for embryogenesis and adult metabolism. Ascidian Ciona notochord lumen is an excellent in vivo model fo...

Quiste del rafe medio perineal

Repert. med. cir; 31 (2), 2022
Introducción: los quistes de rafe medio (QRM) son lesiones infrecuentes del aparato genital masculino, pueden localizarse desde la parte distal del pene hasta la zona perianal. Se deben a defectos del cierre del rafe medio durante el desarrollo embrionario. Objetivo: presentar un lactante con el diagnó...

Síndrome de heterotaxia: hallazgos tomográficos

Rev. argent. radiol; 86 (3), 2022
Resumen El objetivo de este trabajo es caracterizar los aspectos tomográficos relevantes en el síndrome de heterotaxia, mediante cuatro pacientes que ejemplifican los hallazgos más frecuentes en esta patología. Situs solitus es la disposición habitual de los órganos y vasos sanguíneos y situs inve...

Sperm DNA damage compromises embryo development, but not oocyte fertilisation in pigs

Biol. Res; 55 (), 2022
BACKGROUND: The assessment of sperm DNA integrity has been proposed as a complementary test to conventional mammalian semen analysis. In this sense, single-strand (SSB) and double-strand (DSB) DNA breaks, the two types of sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF), have been reported to have different aetiologies and...

Oocyte quality assessment in marine invertebrates: a novel approach by fluorescence spectroscopy

Biol. Res; 55 (), 2022
BACKGROUND: The assessment of oocyte quality is, nowadays, a major challenge in aquaculture, oocyte cryopreservation, and environmental science. Oocyte quality is a determining factor in fertilization and embryo development; however, there is still a lack of rapid and sensitive cellular markers for its a...
