Audio, Transactions of the IRE Professional Gro... (2009) PMID 19265523 PMCID 2660340

In numerous Caudata, the testis is known to differentiate new lobes at adulthood, leading to a multiple testis. The Iberian ribbed newt Pleurodeles waltl has been studied extensively as a model for sex determination and differentiation. However, the evolution of its testis after metamorphosis is poorly documented.

    We report a case of a 64 year old woman with a calcified ring at the level of the sinotubular junction. Echocardiography and Computed Tomography showed a supravalvular aortic stenosis, without known associated lesions, except for the existence of an aberrant right subclavian artery. These combinatio...

    We cloned the black porgy homologs of dosage suppressor of mck1 homolog (dmc1), and synaptonemal complex protein 3 (sycp3), and examined their expression profiles as well as those of cytochrome P450 family 26 genes (cyp26: cyp26a and cyp26b), retinaldehyde dehydrogenases (raldh: raldh2 and raldh3),...

    We examined the presence and determined concentrations of AMH in seminal plasma of mature stallions. Serum AMH concentrations were significantly higher in neonatal colts than in neonatal fillies. Moreover, concentrations of AMH are high in prepubertal colts whereas significantly lower concentrations...
