The placenta is a complex fetal organ that fulfills pleiotropic roles during fetal growth. It separates the maternal and fetal circulation, with which it is in contact through different surfaces i.e. the syncytiotrophoblast exposes the placenta to the maternal circulation and the endothelium is in contact with fetal blood. During pregnancy, obese women are at increased risk of metabolic syndrom...

Cyprinus carpio is a stenohaline species but can tolerate some ranges of changes in environmental salinities, so histomorphological methods and Na+-K+ ATPase and Aquaporin 3 immunohistochemistry were performed on common carp kidney as an osmoregulatory organ in experimental groups and control in order to investigate their possible roles during salinity challenge. Five groups of fish (n=25) with...

BACKGROUND Gadolinium contrast media (Gd-CM) are regarded as non-nephrotoxic or considerably less nephrotoxic than iodine contrast media (I-CM), and have therefore come to be used as a substitute for I-CM in patients with renal insufficiency in a variety of radiographic examinations. PURPOSE To investigate renal histomorphological changes caused by Gd-CM in comparison with I-CM after renal X-...

Objective: To analyze the impact of nigella sativa on Histomorphological changes in doxorubicin treated albino rats.
 Research Design: Experimental research.
 Abode Study: Anatomy Department, BMSI, Karachi, Pakistan.
 Materials and Methods: Piloted 40 rats for 35 days Department BMSI. They were 3-4 months old about 221 to 238 gm weight. Rats separated into 4 groups, Ao, Bo, Co &a...

Background and Objectives: In spite of large number of studies conducted so far, sudden cardiac death remains an enigma and relative importance of acute coronary events as a trigger of sudden death is currently unclear. An autopsy study of heart was therefore planned to observe various histomorphological cardiac changes, and to determine the frequency association of acute coronary events and my...

This study evaluated pulp changes in molars of rats submitted to tooth movement by application of a 0.4 N force. Twenty-five adult male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus, albinus) were randomly assigned to 5 groups (n=5), being one control group not submitted to force application, and four study groups of 6, 12, 24 and 72 h of force application. The study groups received a 5-mm long nickel-titaniu...
