The lobed river mullet (Cestraeus plicatilis [2]), also known as ludong or banak, [3] is a freshwater mullet. While it is claimed to be endemic to Cagayan River and tributaries extending through the watersheds of Cagayan Valley and the Santa-Abra River Systems of Ilocos Sur and Abra in the Philippines, [4] verifiable and reliable sources have listed Celebes, New Caledonia, New Hebrides, and ...
The chicken embryo is a unique model that overcomes many limitations to studying the biology of cancer in vivo. The chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), a well-vascularized extra-embryonic tissue located underneath the eggshell, has a successful history as a biological platform for the molecular analysis of cancer including viral oncogenesis, [8] carcinogenesis, [9] tumor xenografting, [1] [10] [11 ...
Although a chicken doesn't have as much DNA as a human, it has about the same amount of genes. In those genes, there were similarities to human genes. Humans are 60 percent the same as chickens in ...
It is now clear that the bursa is the primary site of B cell lymphopoeisis and that avian B cell development has some unique properties compared to human or mouse models. [11] Almost all the B cell progenitors in the bursa of 4-day-old chickens express IgM on their cell surface. Studies have shown that B cells of 4– to 8-week-old birds are ...
Stuffed female specimen at Boston Museum of Science. A first mtDNA D-loop haplotype comparison between heath hen specimens and prairie-chickens [5] brought the unexpected result that all heath hens tested formed a group very distinct from mainland birds, being most similar genetically to greater prairie chickens from Wisconsin.
Diseases associated with this family include feline calicivirus (respiratory disease), rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (often fatal hepatitis), and Norwalk group of viruses (gastroenteritis). [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Caliciviruses naturally infect vertebrates , and have been found in a number of organisms such as humans , cattle , pigs , cats , chickens ...
[3] [4] In contrast, removal of the bursa in adult chickens has little effect on the immune system. This was a serendipitous discovery that came about when a fellow graduate, Timothy S. Chang, who was teaching a course on antibody production obtained chickens from Glick that had been bursectomised (removal of the bursa).
