Effect of growth hormone and cortisone acetate upon mitotic activity in normal and regenerating tissues of amphibia.
نویسنده
چکیده
The outburst of mitotic activity in regenerating tissues of amphibia has been demonstrated by a number of workers.In the series of studies on the above mentioned phenomenon,the writer has reported that mitotic activity in regenerating tissues of the limb and dorsal skin is inhibited by hypophysectomy(Inoue, 1956).To study the results obtained by hypophysectomy,the effects of several hormones on mitotic activity in the normal and regenerating tissues of amphibia were observed. The present report is concerned with the effects of growh hormone and cortisone acetate on the regenerating epidermis,on tissues of some viscera of adult newt and normal epidermis of anuran tadpoles.

That certain hormones as well as neural agencies exert considerable effects upon the mitotic level of normal and regenerating tissues of Amphibia has been claimed from time to time. Denervation was stated to cause some measure of decrease in the mitotic activity of the regenerating tissues of adult newt(Singer and Craven, 1948). The mitotic responsiveness of epidermis of larval Amphibia to impl...
متن کاملCortisone on Tissue Cultures
NUMEROUS recent reports show that cortisone apparently exerts an inhibitory effect, both clinically and in experimental animals, on mesenchymal growth; the evidence on its effect upon epithelial cells is less conclusive. This work has been reviewed by Duke-Elder and Ashton (1951). The object of the experiments here reported is to elucidate the action of cortisone on growth in tissue cultures an...
متن کاملThe Effect of Adrenal Steroids, Corticotropin, and Growth Hormone on Resistance to Experimental Infections
Cortisone acetate, hydrocortisone, and hydrocortisone acetate depress the resistance of mice to pneumococcal and influenza viral infections, although hydrocortisone acetate is somewhat less effective than the free alcohol, when given subcutaneously. Pituitary adrenocorticotropin, even in highly purified form and in oil and beeswax, does not significantly alter the resistance of mice to these ex...

Some natural compounds of plants including phenols and alkaloids induce mitosis depressive that are blocked cell division. Field dodder (Cuscuta campestris Yunck.) and eastern dodder (Cuscuta monogyna Vahl.) are the most widespread obligatory parasitic species. In the present study, end of summer 2015, field dodder and eastern dodder are collected from Alhagi maurorum Medik. host and Vine (Viti...

Tuberculin (P.P.D.) and cortisone acetate, singly and in combination, were added to explanted splenic tissue derived from guinea pigs, mice, and rabbits, and buffy coats obtained from rabbits. These tissues came from normal animals or from animals which had been infected with the tubercle bacillus or immunized with killed tubercle bacilli. 5 microg./ml. of tuberculin or 0.5 microg./ml. of corti...
