BURSA OF FABRICIUS IN CHICKENS: POSSIBLE HUMORAL FACTOR

    Chicks bursectomized by testosterone injection on the 5th day of incubation showed a marked inability to produce antibodies to Salmonella typhimurium. When portions of the bursa of Fabricius were enclosed in cell-impermeable Millipore diffusion chambers and implanted subcutaneously or intraperitoneally, the antibody-producing capacity of these animals was restored. Evidence strongly suggests that the bursa of Fabricius elaborates a non-cellular agent capable of restoring immunologic reactivity in bursectomized chicks.

    Gross Anatomy of Skeletal Muscles

    The connective tissues play a significant role in arranging the muscle fibers into a hierarchical structure that forms a complete muscle. Consider a muscle like the bicep brachii, commonly called the bicep. This muscle comprises thousands of muscle fibers enclosed by a protective layer of connective tissue called the endomysium. The endomysium is primarily composed of reticular fibers, a type of thin collagen fiber. It allows the exchange of nutrients and waste products at the fiber level,...
    Naming Skeletal Muscles01:19

    Naming Skeletal Muscles

    The naming of the approximately 700 muscles in the human body is based on a set of criteria designed to provide descriptive information about each muscle, making it easier to identify and remember them.
    The key factors used in naming muscles include:
    Muscles for Facial Expressions01:14

    Muscles for Facial Expressions

    The craniofacial muscles are a collection of approximately 20 thin skeletal muscles situated beneath the skin of the face and scalp. These muscles, primarily responsible for the vast array of human facial expressions, originate from the bones or fibrous structures of the skull and extend outwards to connect with the skin. While most skeletal muscles in the body are enveloped in thick fascia, facial muscles generally have a more delicate fascial covering, with the buccinator muscle being a...

    Muscles of the Anterior Neck

    The anterior neck muscles are the group of muscles covering the front part of the neck. These muscles are classified into three subgroups. The first one is the superficial muscles, the most visible muscles in the front of the neck. It includes the platysma and sternocleidomastoid. The second group is the suprahyoid muscles, located above the hyoid bone. This group comprises the digastric, mylohyoid, geniohyoid, and stylohyoid. Lastly, the infrahyoid muscles are found below the hyoid bone and...

    Muscles of the Thorax

    The thorax muscles are central to the body's respiration and provide essential support and movement for the upper body. They are intricately designed to facilitate the complex breathing process while also contributing to the structural integrity and mobility of the chest and upper limbs.
    The diaphragm is at the core of thoracic musculature, the primary muscle involved in breathing. This expansive, dome-shaped muscle marks the division between the thoracic and abdominal cavities. It originates...
    Muscles of the Abdomen01:21

    Muscles of the Abdomen

    The abdominal wall encircles the abdominal cavity, providing flexible protection and shielding the internal organs from harm. It is bordered at the top by the xiphoid process and costal margins, at the back by the vertebral column, and at the bottom by the pelvic bones and inguinal ligament. The abdominal wall is divided into two regions — the anterolateral and posterior regions.
    Anterolateral Region
    The anterolateral region comprises five paired muscles classified into the lateral and anterior...
