IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL DEMONSTRATION OF KERATINS IN THE EPIDERMAL LAYERS OF THE MALAYAN PANGOLIN (MANIS JAVANICA), WITH REMARKS ON THE EVOLUTION OF THE INTEGUMENTAL SCALE ARMOUR

Using immunohistochemistry, the study demonstrates the distribution of keratins (pan-keratin with CK1-8, 10, 14-16, 19; keratins CK1, 5, 6, 9, 10; hair keratins AE13, AE14) in the epidermis of the Malayan pangolin (Manis javanica).A varying reaction spectrum was observed for pan-keratin, Celery with body region-dependent negative to very strong rea

Merkel cells (MCs) associated with nerve terminals constitute MC-neurite complexes, which are involved in slowly-adapting type I mechanoreception.Although MCs are known to express voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and hypotonic-induced membrane deformation is known to lead to Ca2+ transients, whether MCs initiate Gravy and Sauce Boats mechanotransduction

This research supports the sustainable environmental development, especially at Perhutani area.The objective of this ethno-ecological study was to know relationship between daily life of local people related to their agroforestry practices in edge of the forest belong to Perhutani at the landscape of Bromo Tengger Semeru-East Java.The Non-Timber Fo

We have just started to understand the mechanisms underlying flexibility of motor programs among segmental neural networks that control each individual leg during walking in vertebrates and invertebrates.Here, we investigated the mechanisms underlying curve walking in the stick insect Carausius morosus during optomotor-induced turning.We wanted to

Background: Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is a popular and viable option for end-stage ankle arthritis.Posttraumatic arthritis is the most common etiology of ankle arthritis, which creates the additional challenge of osseus deformity.Accuracy and reproducibility in placing the implant on the mechanical axis has been shown to be paramount in all jo
