Ourselves Unborn: An Embryologist's Essay on Man
ISBN: 9780300135787 / Angielski / Twarda / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dr. George Washington Corner, one of the most eminent embryologists in the United States, has written in this book an account of what happens to man (and other mammals) before birth. Here is the latest knowledge in the possession of the embryologist, presented so that the layman can read it; the story of the miraculous change from a single cell to an organism two billion times its original size, ready to take its place in the open air of the outside world. Here is also the story of what is and what is not true in beliefs about prenatal shocks to the mother and their effects on the offspring,...

Hypospadias and Genital Development
ISBN: 9780306481772 / Angielski / Twarda / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book focuses on the current basic science research of hypospadias and genital development. Congenital anomalies of the genitalia are the second most common birth abnormality besides congenital heart defects. Genital anomalies come in many varieties with the most common abnormality being hypospadias. The etiology of hypospadias remains unknown and the incidence is doubling in western countries with no definable explanation. It therefore seems especially germane to study this common congenital anomaly with a baseline incidence of 1/125-250 newborn males.

Craniofacial Development the Tissue and Molecular Interactions That Control Development of the Head
ISBN: 9783540003632 / Angielski / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Craniofacial development is a multistep and intricate process initially involving a number of inductive interactions that control neural and neural crest development, which are followed by a series of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions that control outgrowth, patterning, and skeletal differentiation. Certain aspects of craniofacial development are unique developmental processes in higher vertebrates. First, in higher vertebrates the cranial neural crest, in contrast to the trunk neural crest, gives rise to the skeletal structures. These skeletal elements include those comprising mem- brane...

The Role of Wnt Signalling in the Development of Somites and Neural Crest
ISBN: 9783540777267 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 1 Introduction 1. 1 Wnts and Development The f amily of Wnt genes consists of at least 19 members in vertebrates. Wnts ha v e multiple roles during normal development and aetiology of diseases (Wodarz and Nusse 1998; Moon et al. 2002, 2004). These genes encode for glycoproteins that are released in the intercellular space, acting as intercellular mediators (Moon et al. 1997). By binding to their special receptors, the Frizzled (Fz) receptors, they are able to activate at least three different pathways: the canonical, the non-canonical and the Ca 2+ pathway (Fig. 1 ). The Wnt family has been...

The Human Embryo: Aristotle and the Arabic and European Traditions

When are we recognizably human? - are addressed with new intensity today. Modern embryology has changed the methods of enquiry and given us new knowledge. Public interest and concern are high because medical applications of new knowledge offer benefits and yet awaken ancestral fears. The law and politics are called upon to secure the benefits without realizing the fears. Philosophers and theologians are involved once again. In this volume, some of the world's authorities on the subject trace the tradition...

ISBN: 9780412563508 / Angielski / Miękka / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Fertilization is not a single event but a series of interactions between the egg and sperm which lead to the eventual joining of nuclear materials to establish the hereditary constitution of the early embryo. Many of the events comprising the phenomenon of fertilization are fundamentally the same throughout the animal kingdom and provide a common thread tying together aspects unique to different groups. In this book, the author employs a comparative approach by highlighting the differences and similarities between fertilization mechanisms in mammals, non-mammals and invertebrates. Since the...
