干细胞

在备受关注的再生医疗中起核心作用的是于细胞。成体的组织干细胞已在骨髓移植上得到了实际应用，但人们还期待着从受精卵中获得的ES细胞能应用于治疗。这讲由东海大学的安藤洁教授来详细讲解干细胞的知识。[编者按]     

西藏蚤类二例生殖器官畸形

Female Cone Development in Fokienia, Cupressus, Chamaecyparis and Juniperus （Cupressaceae）

The ontogeny and vascular systems of female cones of the Fokienia, Oupressus, Ohamaecyparis and Juniperus were investigated in detail using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and conventional light microscopy. In the species examined, in the axils of the bracts, the first recognizable structure was a broad meristematic swelling, from which ovules developed. No ovuliferous scales developed during the ontogeny of the female cones. The number of ovules and ovule developing sequence displayed considerable variation in different species. However, development of the bracts was similar in all of the investigated species. Following pollination, the foliage-like bracts became peltate bract scales due to intercalary expansion, and global cones formed. In addition, the vascular system in the bract scales became intricate, and inverted vascular bundles emerged in the adaxial of the mature bracts. Based on these observations, a morphological interpretation and possible evolutionary trend of the Cupressaceae female reproductive structures was discussed.
