چکیده
Marshall Sundberg is Associate Professor of Botany at Louisiana State University. He received his B.A. (1971) from Carleton College and M.S. (1973) and Ph.D. (1978) from the University of Minnesota. From 1978 he has was on the faculty of the University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire. In 1985 he moved to LSU where he coordinates the biology program. His research interests are in the flowering plant development, particularly flower initiation and development, vascular differentiation, evolution, and in improving biology instruction.

P-145: Efficacy of Simvasiatin in The Prevention of Doxorubicin-Induced Testicular Morphometric-Stereological Alterations in Mice
Background: Doxorubicin (DOX), a widely used antineoplastic compound, is associated with testicular damage and infertility. In this study, we intended to determine the possible preventive effects of simvastatin (SIM), a lipid lowering agent with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, on testicular morphometric-stereological changes due to DOX treatment in mice. Materials and Methods: Mal...
متن کاملA review of recent developments and applications of morphometry/stereology in lung research.
Design-based stereology is the gold standard of morphometry in lung research. Here, we analyze the current use of morphometric and stereological methods in lung research and provide an overview on recent methodological developments and biological observations made by the use of stereology. Based on this analysis we hope to provide useful recommendations for a good stereological practice to furt...
متن کاملQuantitative microscopy of the lung: a problem-based approach. Part 1: basic principles of lung stereology.
The growing awareness of the importance of accurate morphometry in lung research has recently motivated the publication of guidelines set forth by a combined task force of the American Thoracic Society and the European Respiratory Society (20). This official ATS/ERS Research Policy Statement provides general recommendations on which stereological methods are to be used in quantitative microscop...
متن کاملStereological evaluation of the soleus muscle isografted into fast extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle in rats with different thyroid status.
The 2-D stereology can be used advantageously in the case of muscle cross sections stained by routine histochemical and immunocytochemical methods, such as mATPase reaction, when the quality of the image is often not sufficient for using image analysis techniques without considerable individual intervention. Other advantages of stereological methods in muscle morphometry are that measurements a...
متن کاملComparison of three different staining methods for the morphometric characterization of Alpaca (Vicugna pacos) sperm, using ISAS® CASA-Morph system
Sperm morphometry is a part of the semen analysis based on CASA technology and has shown a big role in the prediction of male fertility. This analysis implies the use of stain techniques, although it has been shown that staining can make dramatic changes in the cell morphometry in different species. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the differences in sperm morphometry in Alpaca, intr...
