This study addressed the effects of nandrolone decanoate (ND) on contractile properties and muscle fiber characteristics of rats submitted to swimming. Male Wistar rats were grouped in sedentary (S), swimming (Sw), sedentary+ND (SND), and swimming+ND (SwND), six animals per group. ND (3 mg/kg) was
OBJECTIVE
To determine the properties of the striated muscle of the greyhound (dog) urethra and to consider its role in maintaining continence. Materials and methods The thickness of the muscle layers and the muscle types were determined by examining sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin or
Cryostat sections from 160 rectal suction biopsies were stained for cholinesterases by the method of Karnovsky and Roots (1964) in an attempt to facilitate the diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease. The method proved at least as reliable as experienced assessment of paraffin haematoxylin-eosin
BACKGROUND
Following the recent transfer of all accepted species of Penicillium subgenus Biverticillium to Talaromyces (including Talaromyces marneffei, formerly Penicillium marneffei), Penicillium species are becoming increasingly rare causal agents of invasive infections. Herein, we present a
OBJECTIVE
To clarify the muscle fibre types in the striated urethral sphincter and the pattern of distribution of this muscle in the prostatic capsule.
METHODS
Twenty-three prostate glands obtained at radical prostatectomy were studied using a whole-organ technique. Each gland was sectioned from
To determine whether occlusal alteration contributes to masticatory muscle damage by inducing oxidative stress.Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into six groups, including occlusal interference groups (3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and
