3.A LIFE TIME DEVOTED TO DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY STUDIES——IN MEMORY OF PROFESSOR S.C.WU (WU SHANGQIN)
4.RALF DAHM is a project manager at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Tübingen, Germany.
5.“Mutations in NOTCH 1 cause an early developmental defect in the aortic valve,” said Dr Vidu Garg, an assistant professor of paediatrics and molecular biology.
6.Abstract:The early embryo developmental block is a common phenomenon in mammal when embryos are cultured in vitro.Many studies of phosphorus,glucose,hypoxanthine and cytoplasmic factors on early embryo developmental block carried out by different methods such as morphology,biochemistry,molecular biology and micromanipulation have been reviewed.The merit and shortcoming were analyzed and the necessity of using simple or components limited media overcoming early embryo developmental block were also reviewed.Media that have been shown effective in overcoming early embryo developmental block in mouse,rat,hamster,rabbit,pig,sheep,cattle and monkey were listed.
7.A series of researches were conducted on the reproduction of male Haemaphysalis longicornis Neumann, including the structure and protein components of male reproductive system, changes of the protein contents and components during different developmental stages, the effects of juvenile hormone and molting hormone, using scanning electron microscope (SEM), Bradford method, SDS-PAGE, topical application and an in vitro culture methods. The present results will provide foundation for further investigations on reproductive biology of ticks.
