Adrenocortical Zonation, Renewal, and Remodeling
The adrenal cortex is divided into concentric zones. In humans the major cortical zones are the zona glomerulosa, zona fasciculata, and zona reticularis. The adrenal cortex is a dynamic organ in which senescent cells are replaced by newly differentiated ones. This constant renewal facilitates organ remodeling in response to physiological demand for steroids. Cortical zones can reversibly expand...
متن کاملThe human renal lymphatics under normal and pathological conditions
AIMS The renal lymphatics have not been fully documented in humans. The aim of this study was to clarify the morphology of the human renal lymphatic system under normal and pathological conditions by immunohistochemistry using anti-D2-40 antibody. METHODS AND RESULTS Normal and pathological renal tissues obtained at autopsy as well as nephrectomy specimens with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) were...
متن کاملE- and N-cadherin distribution in developing and functional human teeth under normal and pathological conditions.
Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion molecules involved in the regulation of various biological processes such as cell recognition, intercellular communication, cell fate, cell polarity, boundary formation, and morphogenesis. Although previous studies have shown E-cadherin expression during rodent or human odontogenesis, there is no equivalent study available on N-cadherin expression i...
متن کاملCharacterization of leucocyte alkaline phosphatase in normal subjects and under different physiological and pathological conditions.
Leucocyte alkaline phosphatase activity was determined in both cell homogenates and cell extracts. Leucocytes were obtained from normal controls, pregnant females, and patients with various haematological disorders. Enzyme activity presented in terms of phosphorus per minute per 10 neutrophils was more in agreement with the reported cytochemical data in both normal and pathological cases, than ...
متن کاملCitrullination under physiological and pathological conditions.
Citrullination, one of the enzymatic posttranslational modifications has become a hot topic of recent research as it is involved in various physiological and pathological processes. Antibodies against citrullinated proteins called anti-citrullinated protein antibodies, are the hallmark (diagnostic and prognostic factors) of rheumatoid arthritis, and are specific for the disease. Citrullination ...
