The analysis of the effects cadmium (Cd) on plant cells is crucial to understand defense mechanisms and adaptation strategies plants against Cd toxicity. In this study, we examined stress-related enzyme activities after one seven days application ultrastructure roots Pisum sativum L. treatment (10, 50, 100, 200 μM CdSO4). Our results showed that phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity amount accumulated in were significantly positively correlated with concentration used our experiment....
Cadmium (Cd) as a toxic element has significant effect on plants. The presented study was focused the analysis of differences between short- (one day) and long-time (7 28 days) effects Cd (10, 50, 100 200 μM CdSO4) P. sativum L. showed that treatment generally reduced accumulation Ca, K Mn in pea elevation photosynthesis rate observed after one day treatment. However, opposite 7 days noticed, it similar for all concentrations used during experiment. influence application development delay...
This study provides a detailed description of cocaine-and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) distribution and the co-localization pattern CART gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), somatostatin (SOM), neuropeptide Y (NPY), cholecystokinin (CCK), substance P (SP) in preoptic area (POA) domestic pig. The POA displays low density immunoreactive cells rich immunoreactivity for fibers. CART-immunoreactive (CART-IR) cell bodies were single faintly stained, located medial (MPA)...
The distribution and morphology of neurons containing cocaine- amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) was investigated in the pig amygdala. CART- immunoreactive (CART-IR) cell bodies were rarely observed amygdala most often they present posterior (small-celled) parts basolateral basomedial nuclei. In all other subdivisions only a small number randomly scattered pericarya present. every region studied CART-IR formed heterogeneous population consisting mostly small, rounded or slightly...
With 6 figures and 2 tables Summary Unbiased stereological methods were used to morphometrically examine compare the medial geniculate body (MGB) of two species from different mammalian orders. The MGB had a similar nuclear pattern, it was parcelled into three major cytoarchitectural areas: dorsal nucleus (MGd), ventral (MGv) (MGm). MGd predominant in fox, where contributed nearly 50% total volume, while rabbit, MGv insignificantly larger than MGd. In both species, percentage contribution...
Abstract The aim of the study was to describe distribution cocaine and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) calcium binding proteins (CaBPs) EF-hand family, namely calbindin, calretinin, parvalbumin in preoptic area (POA) ram. Frozen sections were processed for a routine immunofluorescence labelling. CART, calretinin immunoreactivity present neurons fibers area, whereas showed only POA fibers. CART displayed from moderate low cells high highest all studied CaBPs exhibited lowest...
Summary This study describes the distribution of galanin (Gal) and receptor 2 (GalR2) in pre‐optic area ( POA ) female guinea pig. Frozen sections were undergone for a routine immunofluorescence labelling. Gal GalR2 display immunoreactivity all parts area. shows reactivity both perikarya fibres, whereas was observed only perikarya. Gal‐ GalR2‐immunoreactive (‐ir) most numerous medial MPA with highest its dorsal part. In median nucleus MPN periventricular PPN ), single GalR2‐ir neurons...
The present study provides a detailed description of somatostatin (SOM) distribution and the colocalization pattern SOM, neuropeptide Y (NPY) nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in dorsal striatum (caudate-putamen complex) guinea pig. Within striatum, SOM is found population medium-sized aspiny interneurons. We that 97% all SOM-IR neurons expressed NPY simultaneously, while 98% NPY-ergic perikarya was simultaneously SOM-IR. On other hand, cells were NOS-IR, only 91% NOS-containing exhibited...
Abstract The morphology of the striatum (St, caudoputamen complex) and globus pallidus (GP) was studied by stereological methods in representatives four mammalian orders ( Insectivora, Rodentia, Lagomorpha, Carnivora ). aim our study to give first detailed morphometric characteristics St GP animals. paraffin-embedded brain tissue blocks were cut coronal plane into 50 μm sections, which stained for Nissl substance. analysis has included such parameters as volume, numerical density, total...
Cadmium (Cd) is a key stress factor that affects plant development. To examine the influence of Cd stress, we analysed tissue localisation polysaccharides (Periodic Acid Schiff reaction), qualitative and quantitative changes in soluble carbohydrates (High-Resolution Gas Chromatography), expression galactinol synthase (PsGolS) raffinose (PsRS) genes 4-week-old Pisum sativum L. ‘Pegaz’. The plants were treated with 10, 50, 100, 200 µM CdSO4 for one week on 1st, 7th, 28th days after...
Abstract Unbiased stereological methods were used to examine and compare morphometrically the geniculate bodies (GB) in representatives of four mammalian orders ( Insectivora , Rodentia Lagomorpha Carnivora ). The significant disproportion was observed between relative sizes both nuclei their neuronal populations common shrew bank vole. medial body (MGB) definitely surpassed lateral (LGB) terms percentage volume number neurons. GB correlated with mean populations, whereas negative...
