Postnatal sellar spine growth
BACKGROUND A sellar spine is a bony spur protruding anteriorly from the central portion of the dorsum sellae. Its etiology is an ossified notochordal remnant of the cephalic end of the notochord. It is presumed to be a congenital malformation based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of sellar spine in a 4-year-old boy. A sellar spine should therefore be detectable at birth with or wit...
متن کاملPostnatal human lung growth.
Standard morphometric methods were applied to the lungs of 36 boys and 20 girls aged from 6 weeks to 14 years, dying as a result of trauma or after short illnesses. Individual lung units, alveolar dimensions, and number of alveoli per unit area and volume did not differ between boys and girls, but boys had bigger lungs than girls for the same stature. This resulted in a larger total number of a...
متن کاملPostnatal Growth Responses to Insulin-Like Growth
Organ weight was compared in adult mice with deletion of one (IRS-1) or both (IRS-1) copies of the insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) gene and IRS-1 littermates. IRS-1 mice showed modest reductions in weight of most organs in proportion to a decrease in body weight. IRS-1 mice showed major reductions in weight of heart, liver, and spleen that were directly proportional to a decrease in body w...
متن کاملGluN3A promotes dendritic spine pruning and destabilization during postnatal development.
Synaptic rearrangements during critical periods of postnatal brain development rely on the correct formation, strengthening, and elimination of synapses and associated dendritic spines to form functional networks. The correct balance of these processes is thought to be regulated by synapse-specific changes in the subunit composition of NMDA-type glutamate receptors (NMDARs). Among these, the no...
متن کاملRare sellar lesions.
Sellar masses are associated most commonly with pituitary adenomas. Many other neoplastic, inflammatory, infectious, and vascular lesions, however, may affect the sellar region and mimic pituitary tumors. These lesions must be considered in a differential diagnosis. This article describes the characteristics of rare sellar masses that provide clues to their differential diagnosis.
