A Genome-wide Search for Linkage to Asthma

TL;DR: Linkage analysis for asthma identified four chromosomal regions that could to be linked to asthma: chromosome 2 (at marker D2S2298, P = 0.007), chromosome 6 (around D6S291, lowest P =0.008), chromosome 9 (proximal to D9S1784), and chromosome 12 (D12S351, P=0.010).
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of long-term corticosterone administration on hippocampal morphology and cognitive performance of middle-aged rats.

TL;DR: This animal model may become extremely useful in testing projected prophylactic therapy against the brain damage and cognitive deficits induced by the high corticosteroid-aging combination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-related structural changes in the rat hippocampus: correlation with working memory deficiency.

TL;DR: It is concluded that 12-month-old Wistar rats may serve as the animal model of choice for the study of specific age-related behavioral deficits and that the hippocampal CA3 region might play a major role in the age-dependent cognitive decline.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chondroclasts and endothelial cells collaborate in the process of cartilage resorption.

TL;DR: In this ultrastructural study, it is demonstrated that the terminal hypertrophic chondrocytes undergo apoptosis and disintegration while simultaneouslychondroclasts dissolve gaps in the calcified cartilage that engulfs them.
Journal Article

Further characterisation of the extracellular matrix in the mandibular condyle in neonatal mice.

TL;DR: The data presented hereby indicate that the condylar cartilage contains a population of progenitor cells that synthesise Type I collagen rather than Type II collagen--the typical collagen of cartilage extracellular matrix.
