Exophthalmos may be due to an inflammatory process or to tumor formation. Inflammatory processes are most likely to occur in children and young adults. Tumors are the most common cause of exophthalmos in adults.Since the advent of chemotherapy and the antibiotics, rarely does orbital cellulitis develop from sinal infection.Tumors causing exophthalmos are likely to be benign if they arise from the frontal sinus and malignant if they arise from the maxillary and ethmoid sinuses. 相似文献

There are many causes of abnormal protrusion of one or both eyes, the most common of which is imbalance of the glands of internal secretion. Among other causes are a variety of tumors that originate behind the eye or that extend to that location from other parts in the body. Infections can extend to the orbit behind the eye from the neighboring structures such as the paranasal sinuses. Infection may also extend to the orbit from distant areas by way of the blood and cause exophthalmos. 相似文献

Batesian mimicry is the resemblance between unpalatable models and palatable mimics. The widely accepted idea is that the frequency and the unprofitability of the model are crucial for the introduction of a Batesian mimic into the prey population. However, experimental evidence is limited and furthermore, previous studies have considered mainly perfect mimicry (automimicry). We investigated imperfect Batesian mimicry by varying the frequency of an aposematic model at two levels of distastefulness. The predator encountered prey in a random order, one prey item at a time. The prey were thus presented realistically in a sequential way. Great tits (Parus major) were used as predators. This experiment, with a novel signal, supports the idea that Batesian mimics gain most when the models outnumber them. The mortalities of the mimics as well as the models were significantly dependent on the frequency of the model. Both prey types survived better the fewer mimics there were confusing the predator. There were also indications that the degree of distastefulness of the model had an effect on the survival of the Batesian mimic: the models survived significantly better the more distasteful they were. The experiment supports the most classical predictions in the theories of the origin and maintenance of Batesian mimicry. 相似文献

Abstract We sketch the development of UK genetics and genomics research, and emphasize the UK's key role in the international genetics and genomics research community. We highlight in particular the part played by the UK's Research Councils and other funders. With the move from genomics to post-genomics research, the field is diversifying, and interdisciplinarity becomes increasingly important, as traditional disciplinary boundaries become blurred, or break down, in the face of newly emerging sciences. We consider the changing nature of health and ill health in the developed and developing world, and questions about the complex nature of the relationships between genes and the environment, and their future implications for human health and human populations. We describe the ESRC's activities, stressing the importance of both the social, ethical and legal issues raised by these emerging disciplines, and of public engagement. Finally, we link the data handling and analysis issues raised by these emerging sciences, with other new research areas, in particular the UK's e-Science programme. 相似文献

Genes coding for entire pathways of antibiotic biosynthesis have been cloned in Streptomyces. Inter-species cloning of antibiotic biosynthesis genes makes it possible to express in the same cell two biosynthetic pathways, which normally operate in different organisms, resulting in the formation of new hybrid structures different from those produced by either parent organism. 相似文献

Summary With the aid of a microspectrophotometer the visual pigments and oil globules in the retina of the emu (Dromiceius novae-hollandiae), the brushland tinamou (Nothoprocta c. cinerascens) and the Chilean tinamou (Nothoprocta perdicaria sanborni) were characterized. All three of these palaeognathous birds contain in their rods a typical rhodopsin with max near 500 nm. Each of these birds has cones containing iodopsin-like visual pigments with max in the 560–570 nm spectral region. No unequivocal evidence was obtained for the presence of cone pigments other than this iodopsin-like pigment, although one cell thought to be a cone, and containing a visual pigment with max near 498 nm, was observed in the retina of the brushland tinamou. The oil globule systems of the three palaeognathous species are identical to each other and are much simpler than is typical for neognathous birds in that only two different types of globule are present, one with T50 at 508 nm and another with T50 at 568 nm. Comparison of the data with observations made on neognathous species indicates (1) that palaeognathous birds probably have poorer color discrimination capabilities than neognathous birds and (2) that the tinamou is more closely related to the ratites than to the galliform species.This study was supported, in part, by NIH Grant No. EY01839 (A.J. Sillman), NIH Grant No. EY00323 (W.N. McFarland) and NSF Grant No. 78-07657 (E.R. Loew). The authors thank E. Clinite, R. Dunford, C. Murphy, R. Riis and D. Weathers for their valuable assistance.

AbstractThe studies relative to the presence, state and combined form of vanadium in Amanita toadstools are reviewed critically. A possible role for the vanadium containing compound “amavadine” is suggested on the basis of the present knowledge of its structure, thermodynamic stability and oxidation-reduction behaviour. 相似文献
