In order to determine the conditions for the optimum production of PR8 influenza virus in chick embryos, a study has been made of the róles of concentration of virus in the inoculum, temperature of incubation of infected embryos, length of time of incubation of infected embryos, and age of embryos at the time of inoculation. Relative amounts of virus in different preparations were measured indirectly by means of determinations of chicken red blood cell agglutination titers. Frozen infectious allantoic fluid which produced infection in chick embryos at a maximum dilution of 10(-7) was employed as a stock inoculum. Best results were obtained with an amount of stock inoculum of 0.1 cc. of a 10(-5) dilution, a temperature of incubation of 35 degrees C., a length of time of incubation of 36 to 48 hours, and with embryos brought to 10 or 11 days of age at 37 degrees C. or 9 or 10 days of age at 39 degrees . An uncontrolled factor arising from inherent variations in the properties of different embryos and different batches of embryos was discussed.

Heat-stress-induced oxidative and inflammatory responses were important factors contributing to chicken intestinal damage. The purpose of this study was based on the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of Physalis Calyx seu Fructus (Jin Deng Long, JDL) to investigate its efficacy and mechanism in relieving chicken heat stress damage. Primary chicken embryo duodenum cells and 90 30-day-old specific-pathogen-free chicken were randomly divided into control and JDL groups to establish heat stress models and .

The chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) tumor model is a valuable preclinical model for studying the tumor-colonizing process of serovar Typhimurium. It offers advantages such as cost-effectiveness, rapid turnaround, reduced engraftment issues, and ease of observation. In this study, we explored and validated the applicability of the partially immune-deficient CAM tumor model.

During lung development, the embryonic airway originates as a wishbone-shaped epithelial tube, which undergoes a series of branching events to build the bronchial tree. This process depends crucially on cell proliferation and is thought to involve distinct branching modes: lateral branching, wherein daughter branches emerge along the length of a parent branch, and bifurcations, wherein the tip of a parent branch splits to form two new daughter branches. The developing airway is fluid-filled, and previous studies have shown that altered luminal pressure can influence rates of branching morphogenesis.

Targeting tumor angiogenesis with safe endogenous protein inhibitors is a promising therapeutic approach despite the plethora of the first line of emerging chemotherapeutic drugs. The extracellular matrix network in the blood vessel basement membrane and growth factors released from endothelial and tumor cells promote the neovascularization which supports the tumor growth. Contrastingly, small cleaved cryptic fragments of the C-terminal non collagenous domains of the same basement membrane display antiangiogenic effect.

The eye primordium of vertebrates initially forms exactly at the side of the head. Later, the eyeball architecture is tuned to see ahead with better visual acuity, but its molecular basis is unknown. The position of both eyes in the face alters in patients with holoprosencephaly due to () mutations that disturb the development of the ventral midline of the neural tube.
