Biosynthesis in the Albumen Gland-Capsule Gland Complex Limits Reproductive Effort in the Invasive Apple Snail Pomacea canaliculata
(Marine Biological Laboratory, 2018-08)
High fecundity often contributes to successful invasives. In molluscs, this may be facilitated by the albumen gland-capsule gland complex, which in gastropods secretes the egg perivitelline fluid that nourishes and protects ...
Gland composition in sexually dimorphic skin structures of two species of Hylid frogs: Plectrohyla guatemalensis and Ptychohyla hypomykter
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2019-06)
Secondary sexual characters form a diverse group of traits widely spread in amphibians. Within anurans, the Hylini tribe represents an interesting group to examine the evolution of this type of characters because it has ...
Post-metamorphic development of skin glands in a true toad: Parotoids versus dorsal skin
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2017-05)
Chemical defenses in amphibians are a common antipredatory and antimicrobial strategy related to the presence of dermal glands that synthesize and store toxic or unpalatable substances. Glands are either distributed ...

Differential activation of nitric oxide synthase through muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in rat salivary glands
(Elsevier, 2000-03)
Muscarinic receptors play an important role in secretory and vasodilator responses in rat salivary glands. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) appears to be one of the multiple effectors coupled to muscarinic receptors in both ...
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) up-regulates wnt5b and wnt7b in the mammary gland, and hCGbeta transgenic female mice present with mammary Gland tumors exhibiting characteristics of the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway activation
(Endocrine Society, 2007-08)
Transgenic (TG) mice expressing human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) beta-subunit under the ubiquitin C promoter, presenting with a moderately elevated level of LH/hCG bioactivity develop multiple neoplasms secondary to the ...
Alterations in Nitric Oxide Synthase Activity and Expression in Submandibular Glands of NOD Mice
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2001-10)
Abstract The non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of autoimmune sialadenitis offers the possibility of studying the L-arginine/nitric oxide signaling pathway in salivary glands in basal and neurotransmitter-stimulated ...
