1.6.3 Hematopoisesis in zebrafish Within the past two decades, the zebrafish (Danio rerio) has become an excellent model to study the development of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). The genes and molecular signaling pathways controlling hematopoiesis are highly conserved between fish and mammals. Both share all major blood cell types that are generated from common lineages of hematopoietic stem cells [13]. This is an important advantage over invertebrate models that lack the complex…

Coronary CT angiography is also non-invasive. A major advantage of CT is that it is able to view bone, soft tissue and blood vessels all at the same time.4 It is therefore suited to identify other reasons for your discomfort such as an injury to the aorta or a blood clot in the lungs.4 A potential added benefit of CTA in these patients is the detection of non-cardiac findings, which may provide an alternate explanation for their…

Marfan Syndrome is a disease causing effects to the heart, blood vessels, eyes, lungs, bones and joints. Other parts of the body which can be affected are the hands, chest, torso and the length or tallness. For those who play sports this disease can end their careers. Due to the pressure around the heart, lungs and blood vessels heavy activity is could lead to death. I chose this topic because I was tested for Marfan Syndrome due to large hands which are referred to as basket hands and for…

be noted when using a stethoscope. Typically, these sounds come from the abnormal motion of blood amid cardiac chambers and across valves. As a result, turbulence occurs, bringing about “vibrations in the chambers of the heart or outflow vessels (aorta or pulmonary artery) that are detected as audible, low-frequency sounds,” (Klabunde, 2016). These sounds are different from the regular heart sounds that symbolize the closing of the atrioventricular and semilunar valves amid the cardiac cycle.…

of your life. Eat a green a day, live heathy way. athing issues. Angina is a squeezing sensation in the midsection, it may in like manner happen in the shoulder, neck and arm. This in light of the aorta or vena cava contracting due to inefficient blood being pumped by the heart. The vena cava and aorta branch of into the arms and neck along these lines they are the reasons of misery. Exactly when the heart is not ready to pump blood at a rate obliged (systolic brokenness) fluids begin to create…

artery. In the lungs the blood gets oxygenated and returns to the left atrium through the pulmonary veins. It passes through the left AV into the left ventricle and when the left ventricle contracts blood is forced through the aortic SL, into the aorta and distributed to the body (“The Heart and Heart…

The heart uses the help of blood vessels and capillaries to deliver blood from left ventricle to the body with the help of aorta and atria diastole cardiac cycle. With the help of capillaries and blood vessel transport system the oxygenated blood is delivered to the cells present in a muscle such as cardiac muscle. At this point the oxygenated blood provides oxygen to the cells…

Echocardiograms can also be used to produce an ultrasound image of the hearts structures (Hockenberry, 2014). Other methods of detection of aneurysms include chest x-ray and computerized tomography or CT scan to provide an internal image of the aorta and the heart (Mayo Clinic,…

Heart is a muscular organ located in the thoracic cavity; it is responsible for pumping the blood to rest of the body through the circulatory system.1 It is composed of four chambers: left & right atrium and ventricle, these two chambers are separated by valves(atrioventricular), whereas the left and right side of heart is separated by interventricular septum.1 Walls of heart are composed of cardiac myocytes, these cells contain myofilaments, each unit is composed of contractile protein called…
