congenital ciliary aplasia in two siblings. a primitive disregulation of ciliogenesis? | congenital ciliary aplasia was demonstrated in two siblings with clinical history of primary ciliary dyskinesia. ultrastructural histochemistry of successive bronchial biopsies revealed the predominance of immature mucous cells and the total absence of ciliated or preciliated cells in the respiratory epithelium. this original disorder may represent a unique variant of primary ciliary dyskinesia with primitive disregulation of ciliogenesis. | 2009 | 2798216 |

the processing of spatially transformed text. | the present study shows that previous attempts to demonstrate explicit memory for orientation of spatially transformed text were inconclusive. in the present experiments, subjects read spatially transformed sentences and were then given a recognition test that permitted the use of only nonsemantic information. the results revealed clear evidence of incidental retention of nonsemantic information on an immediate test, no improvement in performance under intentional learning conditions, reduced bu ... | 2009 | 2725265 |
role of prolactin and luteinizing hormone in regulating timing of implantation in the spotted skunk. | the western spotted skunk exhibits an obligate delay of implantation lasting 200-220 days. the pituitary is essential for luteal activation. the corpora lutea, in turn, secrete the hormones necessary for blastocyst implantation. two experiments were designed to determine which pituitary hormones are responsible for increasing luteal activity and induction of implantation. forty-two pregnant skunks with delayed implanting blastocysts were treated as follows: 13 served as untreated controls, 6 rec ... | 2009 | 2655721 |
