Mentres que nalgunhas delas —matemáticas, física…— é unha realidade con poucas décadas de historia, noutras —como a construción, as vin- culadas aos ámbitos pesqueiro e agroforestal e, en xeral, todas as que tiñan presenza na sociedade galega tradicional— conta cunha tradición de séculos, polo menos nos niveis máis relacionados coa práctica profesional. A veterinaria pertence, sen dúbida ningunha, a este segundo blo- que. A importancia que a gandería tivo historicamente en Galicia obrigaba a describir as características morfolóxicas das distintas es- pecies animais, así como a atender e sandar as súas doenzas cando estas aparecían. Por iso existían figuras como os albeites (persoas que se dedicaban a curar doenzas animais sen ter unha titulación específica), e a medicina tradicional recollía unha gran cantidade de tratamentos dirixidos a curar a facenda. E tamén por iso no léxi- co patrimonial galego podemos atopar numerosos termos propios do ámbito da veterinaria. Pero a vitalidade do galego como vehículo comunicativo nos chan- zos máis divulgativos desta disciplina, ou na relación entre veteri- narios e clientes, non é só un feito do pasado. Hoxe en día segue a 7 ser a lingua en que se desenvolven a maior parte dos intercambios de información que se realizan nestas situacións. Pola contra, nos seus niveis máis especializados e académicos, a presenza do galego é moi cativa. A escaseza de publicacións técni- cas e o seu mínimo uso como lingua vehicular na formación uni- versitaria provocan que sucesivas promocións de veterinarios (boa parte dos cales van desenvolver a súa actividade en Galicia) non estean capacitados para utilizar con calidade e precisión unha das dúas linguas oficiais do país no desenvolvemento do seu traballo. Na medida en que os termos técnicos son os elementos máis rele- vantes e visibles de calquera lingua especializada, agardamos que o Vocabulario que agora ten nas mans, e que se centra nas disci- plinas descritivas da ciencia veterinaria, poida axudar desde a súa modestia a solucionar algunhas das eivas que sinalamos. Así, os que se dedican profesionalmente ao exercicio da veterinaria poderán mellorar a calidade da comunicación que manteñen cos seus clientes, tanto porque poderán manexar un galego máis pre- ciso e correcto, como porque terán ferramentas para adquirir parte do léxico científico galego ao que non tiveron acceso durante a súa etapa formativa. E aqueles que están formando futuros veterinarios –e os futuros veterinarios por si mesmos– contarán cun recurso que lles facilitará a introdución do galego na práctica académica, de tal modo que o coñecemento da linguaxe especializada da veterinaria sexa un con- tido transversal máis que se integre de forma natural no proceso formativo dos que de aquí a poucos anos van ser os profesionais que exerzan en Galicia. Poñerlle o ramo a un traballo coma este non sería factible sen a axuda de moita xente; tanta que citar aquí os nomes de todos e cada 8 un deles énos imposible. Por iso, queremos facer un recoñecemento xenérico á súa colaboración desinteresada: nós sabemos canto nos axudaron, e eles e elas saben que nós o sabemos. Pero aínda así, non podemos deixar de destacar a xenerosidade con que o equi- po investigador do proxecto Atlas Lingüístico Galego (Instituto da Lingua Galega. Universidade de Santiago de Compostela) atendeu e deu resposta aos nosos requirimentos de información, ata o punto de permitirnos consultar materiais inéditos que só verán a luz en vindeiros volumes do Atlas. E tamén nos axudou sen sabelo toda a xente que mantivo viva a lingua galega e que a transmitiu de xeración en xeración, especial- mente aqueles máis achegados a cada un de nós, os que nos ensina- ron a empregala, a valorala e a investir esforzos na súa promoción. Para eles, desde aquí, vai o noso recoñecemento. U U U Á hora de realizar as súas consultas teña en conta as indicacións que a seguir formulamos sobre a información recollida no Vocabu- lario e a forma en que se presenta. Deste xeito, poderá obter resul- tados moito máis axustados ás súas necesidades desde o primeiro momento. Estruturalmente, o traballo divídese en dous grandes bloques: a. o vocabulario propiamente dito, no que se recolle o corpus de entradas, numerado e ordenado alfabeticamente segundo a súa denominación galega. b. os índices remisivos, nos que se presenta unha listaxe alfa- bética de todos os equivalentes en cada unha das linguas de traballo (español, inglés e —cando é do caso— latín), indican- do o número da entrada galega a que corresponde, pois é alí onde se atopa toda a información sobre ela. 9 O primeiro deles é a cerna deste traballo, e consta de dous tipos de entradas: 1. As ENTRADAS COMPLETAS son as que compilan e organi- zan toda a información sobre cada un dos conceptos estuda- dos no Vocabulario. Identifícanse cun número que permite remitir facilmente a elas desde calquera dos índices e encabézanse coa denomi- nación galega1 e a categoría gramatical desta. A continuación indícase a área temática a que pertence o concepto designa- do por esa denominación2, e unha liña despois preséntanse outros nomes galegos que remiten ao mesmo concepto, quer sinónimos (marcados como SIN.), quer variantes (marcadas como VAR.). Para estes, sinálase tamén a categoría gramati- cal e o nivel de lingua cando non coinciden cos da entrada. O seguinte bloque de información recolle e ordena os nomes empregados en español (es), inglés (en) e latín científico3 (la) para nomear ese mesmo concepto, separando con punto e coma os sinónimos en cada unha das linguas e ordenándoos alfabeticamente. Para rematar, no apartado Nota aparecen, cando o considera- mos relevante, informacións complementarias de tipo técnico ou lingüístico. 1 O nome galego destácase con tipografía negra e márcase en cursiva cando se trata dun estranxeirismo ou dun latinismo incorporado sen adaptación ningunha. 2 Vid. unha listaxe das empregadas na “Táboa de materias”. 3 Nesta categoría recóllense as denominacións latinas da Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria e da Nomina Embryologica Veterinaria. Por iso, só van aparecer de forma sistemática nas entradas pertencentes á macroárea “Anatomía”. A única interven- ción realizada sobre elas foi presentalas na súa forma singular cando nas fontes orixinais eran citadas en plural, para adaptalas á forma de presentación conven- cional nun dicionario ou vocabulario. 10 1896 papada f Morfoloxía: pescozo // Anatomía: pel SIN.- barbada; barbadela VAR.- papeira; papo (m) es papada en dewlap; double chin la palear Nota.- Designa a ‘pel que colga do pescozo dalgúns animais’.

  • Uterus – Dilation
    Uterus – Dilation Figure Legend: Figure 1 Uterus - Dilation of the uterine lumen in a female B6C3F1/N mouse from a chronic study. There is dilation of the uterine horn. Figure 2 Uterus - Dilation in a female B6C3F1/N mouse from a chronic study (higher magnification of Figure 1). The endometrial epithelium is cuboidal. Figure 3 Uterus - Dilation in a female B6C3F1/N mouse from a chronic study. There is dilation of the uterine lumen, which contains flocculent, eosinophilic material. Figure 4 Uterus - Dilation in a female B6C3F1/N mouse from a chronic study (higher magnification of Figure 3). There is flattened epithelium and eosinophilic material in the uterine lumen. Comment: Dilation of uterine horns (Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4) is commonly observed at necropsy, and frequently these uteri have accumulations of excessive amounts of fluid within the 1 Uterus – Dilation lumen. Uterine dilation is relatively commonly seen in both rats and mice and may be segmental. Luminal dilation may be associated with stromal polyps or occur secondarily to hormonal imbalances from ovarian cysts or to a prolonged estrus state after cessation of the estrus cycle in aged rodents. Administration of progestins, estrogens, and tamoxifen in rats has been associated with uterine dilation. Luminal dilation is normally observed at proestrus and estrus in cycling rodents and should not be diagnosed. Increased serous fluid production is part of the proestrus phase of the cycle judged by the vaginal epithelium (which shows early keratinization covered by a layer of mucified cells) and should not be diagnosed. With uterine dilation, the endometrial lining is usually attenuated or atrophic and the wall of the uterus thinned due to the increasing pressure, but in less severe cases the endometrium can be normal (Figure 2).

  • The Functions of Uterine Secretions R
    Printed in Great Britain J. Reprod. Fert. (1988) 82,875-892 @ 1988 Journals of Reproduction & Fertility Ltd The functions of uterine secretions R. M. Roberts and F. W. Bazer Departments of Biochemistry and Animal Sciences, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO 65211, U.S.A.; and Department of Animal Science, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611, U.S.A. Summary. The likely functions of uterine secretions, often termed histotroph, in the nurture of the early conceptus are reviewed. Particular emphasis has been placed on the pig in which the uterus synthesizes and secretes large amounts of protein in response to progesterone. In this species, which possesses a non-invasive, diffuse type of epithelio- chorial placentation, the secretions provide a sustained embryotrophic environment which is distinct from that of serum. A group of basic proteins dominates these uterine secretions after Day 1 1 of pregnancy and its best characterized member is uteroferrin, an iron-containing acid phosphatase with a deep purple colour. Evidence has accumulated to suggest that uteroferrin, rather than functioning as an acid phosphatase, is involved in transporting iron to the conceptus. Three basic polypeptides which are found non- covalently associated with uteroferrin have been shown to be antigenically closely related to one another and to have arisen by post-translational processing from a common precursor molecule. Their function is unknown. A group of basic protease inhibitors has been identified which bear considerable sequence homology to bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (aprotinin) and may control intrauterine proteolytic events initiated by the conceptuses. The last basic protein so far characterized is lysozyme which is presumed to have an antibacterial role.

  • Infundibulum As the 'Trichter' and the Caudal Half As the 'Tube'
    Arch. histol. jap. Vol. 23, n. 5 (July 1963). P. 447-459. Dept. of Anim. Husb., Fac. of Fish. and Anim. Husb., Hiroshima Univ., Fukuyama, Japan. Histological and Histochemical Studies on the Oviduct of the Domestic Fowl with Special Reference to the Region of Uterovaginal Juncture. 鶏 の 卵 管, と く に 子 宮 と 腟 の 移 行 部 の 組 織 学 的 お よ び 組 織 化 学 的 研 究. Shunsaku FUJII 藤 井 俊 策. (Received May 30, 1963.) The histological structure of the oviduct of the domestic fowl has almost com- pletely been investigated by many workers, including SURFACE (1912), GIERSBERG (1921, 1922), FROBOSE (1928), BRADLEY (1928), and RICHARDSON (1935). SURFACE studied mainly the histological structure of the oviduct itself. RICHARD- SON observed in detail the function and histological s structure of the gland of the ovi- duct. At present, the oviduct is generally divided into five portions: the infundi- bulum or funnel, the magnum or albumen secreting portion, the isthmus, the uterus or shell-gland region, and the vagina. Each portion has its particular structure and physiological function for egg production. In addition, some workers have identified another portion as the region of juncture, where one type of mucosa intermingles with another type. For instance, GIERSBERG (1922) distinguished the cranial half of the infundibulum as the 'Trichter'and the caudal half as the 'Tube'. RICHARDSON, (1935)also subdivided the infundibulum into 'funnel'without glandsand the 'chalazi- ferous region'with glands, and insertedthe 'isthmo-uterineregion' between the isthmus and the uterus. In spite of such large number of histological observations as these, little has been reported on the histochemistry of the oviduct.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

  • Observations on the Histology and Ultrastructure
    OBSERVATIONS ON THE HISTOLOGY AND ULTRASTRUCTURE OF THE PARS DISTALIS OF THE RABBIT HYPOPHYSIS IN ORGAN CULTURE A Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London by SNEHLATA PATHAK Department of Cellular Biology 1970 and Histology, St. Mary's Hospital Medical School, London W.2. ABSTRACT The histology and ultrastrueture of the pars distalis of the rabbit hypophysis was studied after different periods of organ culture, and the best technique for the maintenance of the maximum proportion of the explant was assessed by comparing cultures grown in different conditions. Explants in air with a medium buffered. with N.2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N1-2- ethanesulphonic acid (HEPES), not previously used in organ culture, proved more satisfactory than explants in carbogen with bicarbonate buffered 199, and cultures were maintained for more than 3 weeks. Material from young animals survived better than from old. The survival of cells was assessed on the basis of their cytological integrity when explants were examined by light microscopy after specific staining and by electron microscopy; DNA and RNA fluorescence with acridine orange was a valuable indicator. Also, cell multiplication was identified by direct observation of mitosis, by the application of the colchicine technique and by autoradiography. During culture, prolactin cells showed physiological signs of secretion (demonstrated by combined culture with mammary gland) and morphological signs of an increase of secretory activity. Morphological signs of reduced secretory activity appeared in the presence of hypothalamic tissue (combined culture) or extract. Somatotrophs and gonadotrophs. showed signs of low-level secretory activity in solitary pars distalis culture and of increased activity in combined culture with hypothalamus.

During the 40 years that have followed this seminal finding, gap junctions have been documented in all types of multicellular secretory systems, whether of the exocrine, endocrine or pheromonal nature. Also, compelling evidence now indicates that gap junction-mediated coupling, and/or the connexin proteins per se, play significant regulatory roles in various aspects of gland functions, ranging from the biosynthesis, storage and release of a variety of secretory products, to the control of the growth and differentiation of secretory cells, and to the regulation of gland morphogenesis.

  • Light and Electron Microscopic Observations on the Anterior Pituitary of the Mouse Injected with Dl-Thyroxine By
    Okajimas Fol. anat. jap., 43: 21-51, 1967 Light and Electron Microscopic Observations on the Anterior Pituitary of the Mouse injected with dl-Thyroxine By Tomiji Uchida Department of Anatomy, Nagoya University School of Medicine, Nagoya, Japan (Director : Prof. Dr. Ka z u m a r o Y a m ad a) Introduction Probably, the first suggestion of the existence of a functional relationship between the thyroid and hypophysis was given by Niepce (1851) who described pituitary enlargement in a series of goitrous cretins. Since then numerous studies have provided detailed evidence of this relationship. The reciprocal interrelationship be- tween thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) secretion in the anterior hypophysis and the circulating levels of thyroid hormone has been well established, and in general, procedures which reduce effective plasma concentrations of thyroid hormone increase thyrotrophic hormone release in the anterior pituitary, whereas increased circulat- ing levels of thyroxine inhibit thyrotophic hormone secretion. This negative feedback mechanism resides both in the level of the pituitary and of a hypothalamic " TSH releasing center " (S o 1 o m on and Dowling, '60). Earlier views (Ma rin e, Rosen and Spar k, '35; Morris, '52) favored pituitary acidophile cell as the source of thyrotrophic hormone, but results of many recent studies implicate the basophile cell (Zeckwer, '38a and '38b; Griesbach and Purves, '45 Pur v es and Griesbac h, '46a, '46b, '51a, '51b, '51c, '57a and '57b; Goldberg and Chaikoff, '50; Salter, '50, Halmi, '50, '51, '52a , '52b, and 52c ; R ennel s, '53; Halm i and G u d e, '54 D'Angelo, '53 and '55; Knigge, '55; Elf tman, '58; Mura - s h i m a, '60 and others).

  • Characterization of Human Pituitary Adenomas in Cell Cultures by Light and Electron Microscopic Morphology and Immunolabeling
    FOLIA HISTOCHEMICA ET CYTOBIOLOGICA Vol. 43, No. 2, 2005 pp. 81-90 Characterization of human pituitary adenomas in cell cultures by light and electron microscopic morphology and immunolabeling Ilona Fazekas1, Balázs Hegedüs1, Ernö Bácsy2, Edit Kerekes1, Felicia Slowik1, Katalin Bálint1 and Emil Pásztor1 1National Institute of Neurosurgery, Budapest, and 2Institute of Experimental Medicine, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Budapest, Hungary Abstract: The morphology and hormone production of pituitary adenoma cell cultures were compared in order to highlight their characteristic in vitro features. Cell suspensions were prepared from 494 surgical specimens. The 319 viable monolayer cultures were analyzed in detail by light microscopy and immunocytochemistry within two weeks of cultivation. Some cultures were further characterized by scanning, transmission and immunogold electron microscopy. The viability and detailed in vitro morphology of adenoma cells were found to be characteristic for the various types of pituitary tumors. The sparsely granulated growth hormone, the corticotroph and the acidophil stem cell adenomas provided the highest ratio of viable cultures. Occasionally, prolonged maintenance of cells resulted in long-term cultures. Furthermore, a variety of particular distributions of different hormone-containing granules were found in several cases. Both light microscopic and ultrastructural analyses proved that the primary cultures of adenoma cells retain their physiological features during in vitro cultivations.
