(5) The gate is influenced by cells in the nearby situated substantia gelatinosa, thick nerves and efferent nerves from higher situated centra.
(6) The neurocentral joints, and hence the boundaries between neural arches and centra, are unclear before ossification has begun and has progressed during the fetal period.
(7) This paper reports those findings and relates some of them to a previous comprehensive national study done by John Centra through the Educational Testing Service in 1976.
(8) Foetuses from the mid- and high-dose groups also had significant increases in certain skeletal defects, namely missing centra and reduced ossification of the dorsal arch.
(9) The reexamined cases were from the "Japona Centra Revuo Medicina" reported during the period from 1952 to 1971.
(10) The cervical spine exhibited multiple abnormalities involving both the vertebral centra as well as the posterior elements (Klippel-Feil abnormality).
(11) The centra of the second and third vertebrae are fused together forming a composite structure.
(12) Following exposure to bromodeoxyuridine (BUDR), acetazolamide (ACZM), trypan blue (TRBL), cortisone (CORT), or diphenylhydantoin (DPH), alizarin-stained, cleared fetuses were examined at 18 days postcoitus for unossified cervical vertebral centra; number of ossified caudal vertebrae; number of ribs; and ossification of sternebrae, metatarsals, metacarpals, and phalangeal rows.
(13) At all teratogenic doses, in no vehicle-treated groups, and rarely in lower-dose groups, there were significant increases in frequency of unossified cervical centra, the first vertebra (C1) being most often affected, and C7 least often affected.
(14) Ossification of cervical vertebral centra, and caudal vertebrae were significantly reduced, sternebra and limb ossification were not.
(15) Skeletal variations (delayed ossification of membranous skull bones, hyoid bone, thoracic centra 1-3, sacral arches 3 and 4, and bilobed thoracic centra 9-13) were seen with similar frequency in the control and HQ-treated groups.
(16) These studies show that reduced ossification of cervical centra is an excellent indicator of prenatal exposure to noxious substances, and caudal vertebrae appear to be useful as well.
(17) Most fish stored more lipid in the neurocranium than in the vertebral centra.
(18) A slight, but statistically significant, increase in the incidence of delayed ossification of the vertebral centra in rats exposed in utero to 120 ppm of DCP was considered of little toxicologic significance in light of the maternal toxicity observed at this exposure concentration.
(19) The connective tissue cells within the cartilage canal appear to assist osteogenesis by providing osteogenic cells which lay down bone in the walls of the cartilage canal, and provide cells which remove calcified cartilage found at the periphery of the canal; they assist growth by producing an appreciable number of chondrocytes that permit lateral expansion of the centra.
(20) (4) A circumscribed perinotochordal distribution of the short-chain sialylated branched sequences was observed in the region of the future centra of the vertebrae.
