Abstract:
The application of histology to soft tissue remains offers an important technique to obtain diagnostically important information on various physiological and pathological conditions in paleopathology. In a series of 29 cases with mummified tissue ranging between 16 months and c. 5.200 years of postmortem time interval, we systematically investigated paleohistology and the preservation of various tissues. We established a reproducible histological ranking system for the evaluation of mummified tissue preservation. The application of this scheme to the series showed good tissue preservation of t

This paper presents a review of literature regarding the role of embryological connective tissue in the formation of muscles and the organization of the musculoskeletal system. The intention is to introduce a potential paradigm shift with regards to understanding peripheral coordination of movement and movement patterns. This new perspective could improve comprehension of the normal physiological function of connective tissue and, whenever it is pathological, resultant symptoms. Furthermore, this paper briefly discusses some implications of this paradigm shift in the interpretation of movement

Abstract:
Acute saline stress can cause death of Phasolosma esculenta, an important aquaculture species in China. Hence, investigating the sensitivity and physiological responses of P. esculenta to saline stress is important. The molecular, physiological, and immune responses of the intestine and body wall of P. esculenta upon saline stress were investigated in this study. The mortality rate of P. esculenta increased with the decreasing salinity. The Na<sup>+</sup>/K<sup>+</sup>-ATPase and acid phosphatase activity peaked at 6 h and 12 h, respectively, in the intestine and body wall, and subsequently st

Abstract:
There is an increasing body of evidence to suggest that the RAS (renin–angiotensin system) contributes to tissue injury and fibrosis in chronic liver disease. A number of studies have shown that components of a local hepatic RAS are up-regulated in fibrotic livers of humans and in experimental animal models. Angiotensin II, the main physiological effector molecule of this system, mediates liver fibrosis by stimulating fibroblast proliferation (myofibroblast and hepatic stellate cells), infiltration of inflammatory cells, and the release of inflammatory cytokines and growth factors such as TGF

Systemic connective tissue disorders constitute a heterogenous group of autoimmune diseases with the potential to affect a range of organs. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, progressive, autoimmune inflammatory disease affecting the joints. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) may manifest with multiple system involvement as a result of inflammatory response to autoantibodies. Spondyloarthropathies (SpAs) such as ankylosing spondylitis (AS) or psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are diseases characterised by the inflammation of spinal joints, paraspinal tissues, peripheral joints and enthesitis as w

Morphogenesis can be viewed as a consequence, in part, of cell locomotion, from large‐scale migrations of epithelial sheets during gastrulation, to the movement of individual cells during development of the nervous system. In an adult organism, cell migration is essential for proper immune response, wound repair, and tissue homeostasis, while aberrant cell migration is found in various pathologies.

Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), also known as stress cardiomyopathy, is a type of acute heart failure syndrome triggered by intense psychological or physiological stress. TTS typically manifests as acute chest pain, dyspnea or syncope that mimics an acute myocardial infarction but does not involve coronary artery obstruction. The current understanding of the pathogenesis of TTS suggests that sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation plays a central role. Specifically, stress can activate the SNS and lead to the over-release of catecholamine, which have toxic effects on myocardial tissue when prese

In these cells the BK B2 receptor (BKB2R) is expressed constitutively, while no binding of AngII is detected. An inducible expression system is used to insert AngII receptor 1 (AT1R) and to obtain a signal level in response to AngII at the magnitude of BK. AngII and BK activate
