Neuronal injury and neurodegeneration are the hallmark pathologies in a variety of neurological conditions such as epilepsy, stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. Quantification of absolute neuron and interneuron counts in various brain regions is essential to understand the impact of neurological insults or neurodegenerative disease progression in animal ...

wounds and wound healing have always been one of the most important subjects that experimental researches were dedicated to. simvastatin has been used for long as a common lipid lowering agent which was reported to have some pleiotropic effects such as antioxidation, anti-inflammation and immunomodulation. in this study we aimed to determine the effect of simvastatin on wound healing process in...

Quantitative data on lung structure are essential to set up structure-function models for assessing the functional performance of the lung or to make statistically valid comparisons in experimental morphology, physiology, or pathology. The methods of choice for microscopy-based lung morphometry are those of stereology, the science of quantitative characterization of irregular three-dimensional ...

Surface area and volume measurements were made for ram and human spermatozoa. Measurements were made using different techniques in an attempt to confirm estimates arrived at by independent methodologies. Sperm head projected surface areas were calculated from published formulae using linear micrometry measurements or were obtained directly by image analysis. Total surface areas were calculated ...
