Embryology The House Mouse: Development and Normal
Stages from Fertilization to 4 Weeks of Age. By K. Theiler. Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg, 1972. $39.40. 268 pp.
THE JOURNAL OF HISTOCHEMISTRY AND CYTOCHEMISTRY Copyright © 1973 by The Histochemical Society, Inc.
This new book must be characterized by evidence ofsuperb dissections by the author and his associates, by as fine photographs of whole embryos and sections as are obtainable and by excellent reproductions and assemblage by the publishers. There are so few publications on the mouse development that this will be a “ must” in every laboratory where this embryo is used in research or in teaching. Having said this in all sincerity, one must turn to the weaknesses of the book. The title portrays the animal as The House Mouse,

Dietary supplements and functional foods: 2 sides of a coin?1–3
Charles H Halsted
Am J Clin Nutr 2003;77(suppl):1001S–7S. Printed in USA. © 2003 American Society for Clinical NutritionABSTRACT
Dietary supplements are used by more than one-half of the adult US population. In contrast to pharmaceuticals, dietary supplements may be sold in the United States with little regulation other than listing of ingredients and the potential health benefits. By contrast, herbal products in Germany are carefully regulated by the same standards as drugs, and efforts are under way to standardize their regulation in the entire European Union. Most herbal users do not inform their physicians that they are taking these supplements, and most physicians do not inquire. Although some herbal products have clinically proven benefits, i

The environment and autoimmune thyroid diseases
Mark F Prummel, Thea Strieder and Wilmar M Wiersinga
Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, F5-171, Academic Medical Center, Meibergdreef 9, 1105 AZ Amsterdam, The Netherlands (Correspondence should be addressed to M F Prummel; Email: m.f.prummel@amc.uva.nl) European Journal of Endocrinology (2004) 150 605–618 Abstract
Genetic factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) and it has been calculated that 80% of the susceptibility to develop Graves’ disease is attributable to genes. The concordance rate for AITD among monozygotic twins is, however, well below 1 and environmental factors thus must play an important role. We have attempted to carry out a comprehensive review of all the envi

Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial of Bestatin in Patients With Resected Stage I Squamous-Cell Lung CarcinomaYukito Ichinose, Keiichiro Genka, Teruaki Koike, Harubumi Kato, Yoh Watanabe, Takashi Mori, Sogo Iioka, Akira Sakuma, Mitsuo OhtaFor the NK421 Lung Cancer Surgery Group Journal of the National Cancer Institute, Vol. 95, No. 8, April 16, 2003
Background
Bestatin is a potent aminopeptidase inhibitor that has immunostimulant and antitumor activity. We conducted a prospective randomized, double-blind, placebocontrolled trial to determine whether postoperative adjuvant treatment with bestatin could prolong the survival of patients with completely resected stage I squamous-cell lung carcinoma. Methods: Patients with confirmed, resected stage I squamous-cell lu

Department of Dairy Science The Ohio State University Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center Wooster 44691 1994 J Dairy Sci 77:46247
ABSTRACT
The efficacy of a Propionibacterium acnes product for treatment of coliform mastitis was evaluated following in- tramammary infusion of Escherichia coli. Ten cows were injected in- travenously with a product containing heat-killed P. acnes at 3 h, 3 d, and 7 d after bacterial challenge. Five cows served as untreated negative controls. Bacterial counts in milk, re

Adv Dent Res 2(2):284-291, November, 1988
ABSTRACT
Bacterial surface structures play a critical role in the initiation of infectious diseases. Various surface components of pathogenic bacteria have been reported to be involved in host injury. There is a great deal of evidence incriminating certain Gram-negative, anaerobic bacteria present in the

Cytoprotective Effect of Podophyllum hexandrum Against Gamma Radiation Is Mediated via Hemopoietic System Stimulation and Up-Regulation of Heme-oxygenase-1 and the Prosurvival Multidomain Protein Bcl-2
Arora Rajesh, PhD, R. Sagar, MSc, S. Singh, MSc, R. Kumar, PhD, A. K. Sharma, MSc, J. Prasad, BSc, S. Singh, BSc, M. Gupta, PhD, R. K. Sharma, PhD, S. C. Puri, PhD, B. Krishna, MD, M. S. Siddiqui, PhD, S. S. Lahiri, PhD, R. P. Tripathi, MD, and G. N. Qazi, PhD
Abstrct
The radioprotective effect of a hydroalcoholic extracted material (REC-2000) from the rhizome of Podophyllum hexandrum was studied in mice exposed to lethal γγ radiation (10 Gy). The extract (REC-2000) was found to restore the hemoglobin content (14.73 ±± 0.33) and total leukocyte count (TLC) (4166.66 ±± 0.02) in lethally (10 Gy) γγ -irradiated mice on the

Immunostimulants, Vaccines, and Environmental Stressors in Aquaculture: NBT Assays to show Neutrophil Activity by these Immunomodulators Douglas P. Anderson Salmon Bay Biologics 2716 Elliott Ave. #900 Seattle, Washington 98121 USA
Abstract
While neutrophil activity assays have been used in human and veterinary medicine for diagnosis of blood neutrophil abnormalities, they are rarely used because of difficulties of handling nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) solutions, drawing and preparation of blood samples and subjectivities in visual readings. We have developed modifications for a simplified NBT assay that can be used in the diagnosis and tracing the effectiveness of immunostimulants, vaccines and environmental stressors of fish. While training and practice for biologists and technicians is needed, the NBT assays can yield
