Regeneration If They Can Do It, Why Can't We?
The therapeutic potential of stem cells and nuclear cloning has led to renewed interest in classical models of regeneration. This longstanding problem is undergoing a renaissance spurred by the availability of new techniques that finally allow analysis on the cellular and molecular level.
متن کاملLungs of the first amniotes: why simple if they can be complex?
We show-in contrast to the traditional textbook contention-that the first amniote lungs were complex, multichambered organs and that the single-chambered lungs of lizards and snakes represent a secondarily simplified rather than the plesiomorphic condition. We combine comparative anatomical and embryological data and show that shared structural principles of multichamberedness are recognizable ...
متن کاملMicrosporidia: Why Make Nucleotides if You Can Steal Them?
Microsporidia are strict obligate intracellular parasites that infect a wide range of eukaryotes including humans and economically important fish and insects. Surviving and flourishing inside another eukaryotic cell is a very specialised lifestyle that requires evolutionary innovation. Genome sequence analyses show that microsporidia have lost most of the genes needed for making primary metabol...
متن کاملWhy move the eyes if we can move the head?
To see while moving is a very basic and integrative sensorimotor function in vertebrates. To maintain visual acuity, the oculomotor system provides efficient compensatory eye movements for head and visual field displacements. Other types of eye movement allow the selection of new visual targets and binocular vision and stereopsis. Motor and premotor neuronal circuits involved in the genesis and...
متن کاملEpisodic Memory in Nonhuman Animals
Episodic memories differ from other types of memory because they represent aspects of the past not present in other memories, such as the time, place, or social context in which the memories were formed. Focus on phenomenal experience in human memory, such as the sense of 'having been there', has resulted in conceptualizations of episodic memory that are difficult or impossible to apply to nonh...
