Several functional and morphological studies have been conducted on the pineal gland in many mammalian species; however, no published reports are available on the role of pineal gland on the gonadal development before and after eyelids separation in puppies. Therefore, this study aimed to trace the postnatal histo-morphological changes in the pineal gland and gonads of puppies before (2, 10 and 11 days old) and after (25, 35 and 40 days old) eyelids separation in an attempt to investigate the possible role of pineal gland on the gonadal development. In general, the differentiation of pineal cells, interstitial endocrine cells of testes and stromal ovarian cells coincides with the start of eyelids separation in puppies. Histological examination of stained... |

Lectins are proteins with binding sites that recognize a specific sequence of sugar moieties in complex glycoconjugates. In the present study the tomato lectin Lycopersicon esculentum (LEL) (a selective microglial and endothelial marker) has been reported to recognize specific residues of N-acetylglucosamine (GlyNAc) and poly-N-acetyllactosamine. In the pineal gland the biotinylated LEL was used to investigate the appearance of these sugar residues in the structures of the rats during their development and adult life. Our results showed that the binding of LEL occurred exclusively in the material adherents on surface of the endothelia of the vessels in the peripheral and central regions of the gland. An exception can be cited to rats in first postnatal... |

A presente pesquisa analisou o efeito da iluminação constante sobre a estrutura placentária de ratas, abordando parâmetros morfológicos, morfométricos e histoquímicos. Vinte ratas albinas foram submetidas aos seguintes tratamentos: 12hL/12hE por 60 dias, e acasaladas em seguida (GI); ausência de luz por 60 dias, e acasaladas em seguida (GII); iluminação constante por 60 dias, e acasaladas em seguida (GIII); iluminação constante por 60 dias, acasaladas em seguida e tratadas com melatonina (GIV). O estímulo luminoso foi em torno de 400 lux. A melatonina foi administrada na água (400mg/mL de etanol). Os resultados mostraram que histologicamente o GII apresentou vacuolização das células do trofospongio. Morfometricamente, o GIII apresentou camada do labirinto... |

Circadian organization means the way in which the entire circadian system above the cellular level is put together physically and the principles and rules that determine the interactions among its component parts which produce overt rhythms of physiology and behavior. Understanding this organization and its evolution is of practical importance as well as of basic interest. The first major problem that we face is the difficulty of making sense of the apparently great diversity that we observe in circadian organization of diverse vertebrates. Some of this diversity falls neatly into place along phylogenetic lines leading to firm generalizations: i) in all vertebrates there is a "circadian axis" consisting of the retinas, the pineal gland and the... |
