‘step Vertebrae’, ‘fish Mouth Vertebrae’ or ‘h Vertebrae’ in Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle cell disease is associated with damage to bony tissues, particularly in adults (1-3). The severity of the sickling condition, as well as genetic determinants such as that for annexin and steroid hormones such as vitamin D are being investigated epidemiologically to ascertain their relative significance. Most bony changes are not visible on clinical examination. We present an image from a...
متن کاملMedaka Fish Parkinson's Disease Model
The teleost fish has been widely used in creating neurodegenerative models. Here we describe the teleost medaka fish Parkinson's disease (PD) models we developed using toxin treatment and genetic engineering. 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), proteasome inhibitors, lysosome inhibitors and tunicamycin treatment in our model fish replicated some sali...
متن کاملOtolith deprivation induces optokinetic compensation.
According to the multisensory integration theory vestibular, optokinetic and proprioceptive inputs act in concert to maintain a stable retinal image of the visual world. Yet, it remains elusive to what extent the otolith organs contribute to this process and whether a specific loss of otolith input is compensated for. Here we investigated the compensatory eye movements in tilted mice, which lac...
متن کاملStatic and dynamic hypergravity responses of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in medaka scales.
Fish scales are a form of calcified tissue similar to that found in human bone. In medaka scales, we detected both osteoblasts and osteoclasts and subsequently developed a new scale assay system. Using this system, we analyzed the osteoblastic and osteoclastic responses under 2-, 3-, and 4-gravity (G) loading by both centrifugation and vibration. After loading for 10 min, the scales from centri...
متن کاملDMY gene induces male development in genetically female (XX) medaka fish.
Although the sex-determining gene SRY/Sry has been identified in mammals, homologues and genes that have a similar function have yet to be identified in nonmammalian vertebrates. Recently, DMY (the DM-domain gene on the Y chromosome) was cloned from the sex-determining region on the Y chromosome of the teleost fish medaka (Oryzias latipes). DMY has been shown to be required for the normal devel...
