The Schneider's Drosophila Line 2 [D. Mel. (2)] was established in 1969 by I. Schneider from several hundred 20 to 24 hour embryos. The cells will grow as a loose monolayer (or in suspension) at any temperature between 16C and 28C. The optimum temperature is between 22C and 24C. The cells have been shown to support the growth of the insect stages of malaria parasites.
Histiocytes are part of the mammalian immune system. Histiocytes are derived from the bone marrow. The derived cells migrate from the bone marrow to the blood as monocytes. They circulate through the body and stop in various organs where they undergo differentiation into histiocytes which are part of the mononuclear phagocyte system. Dendritic cells have a bean shaped nucleus and cytoplasm with thin processes.
The first part of the small intestine, which receives partially digested food from the stomach and begins the absorption of nutrients. The duodenum is the shortest segment of the intestine and is about 9 to 11 inches (23 to 28 cm) long. It is roughly horseshoe-shaped, with the open end up and to the left, and it lies behind the liver. On anatomic and functional grounds, it can be divided into four segments: the superior, descending, horizontal, and ascending duodenum. A liquid mixture of food and gastric secretions enters the superior duodenum from the pylorus of the stomach, triggering the release of pancreas-stimulating hormones from glands in the duodenal wall. Ducts from the pancreas and gallbladder enter at the descending duodenum, bringing bicarbonate to neutralize the acid in the gastric secretions, pancreatic enzymes to further digestion, and bile salts to emulsify fat. The mucous lining of the last two segments of the duodenum begins the absorption of nutrients, in particular iron and calcium, before the food contents enter the next part of the small intestine, the jejunum.

Ehrlich ascites carcinoma is a transplantable tumor of mice that is commonly used as a model in cancer research. The morphology of the cell culture is fibroblast-like with many floating cells. Mouse ascites tumors are generally characterized by the presence of one or more marker chromosomes. In general, ascite cells accumulate in the fluid of the peritoneal cavity, between the membrane lining the abdominal wall and the membrane covering the abdominal organs. The most common (natural) causes of ascites are cirrhosis of the liver, heart failure, tumour invasion of the peritoneal membranes, and escape of chyle (lymph laden with emulsified fats) into the peritoneal cavity. In patients having liver disease, the onset of ascites is usually preceded by accumulation of fluid in the ankles. The abdomen is often uncomfortably distended, and muscles become wasted.

The esophagus or gullet is a muscular canal, about 23 to 25 cm. long, extending from the pharynx to the stomach. It begins in the neck at the lower border of the cricoid cartilage, opposite the sixth cervical vertebra, descends along the front of the vertebral column, through the superior and posterior mediastina, passes through the diaphragm, and, entering the abdomen, ends at the cardiac orifice of the stomach, opposite the eleventh thoracic vertebra.

Organ that serves as a pump to circulate the blood. It may be a straight tube, as in spiders and annelid worms, or a somewhat more elaborate structure with one or more receiving chambers (atria) and a main pumping chamber (ventricle), as in mollusks. In fishes the heart is a folded tube, with three or four enlarged areas that correspond to the chambers in the mammalian heart. In animals with lungs—amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals—the heart shows various stages of evolution from a single to a double pump that circulates blood (1) to the lungs and (2) to the body as a whole. In humans and other mammals and in birds, the heart is a four-chambered double pump that is the centre of the circulatory system. In humans it is situated between the two lungs and slightly to the left of centre, behind the breastbone; it rests on the diaphragm, the muscular partition between the chest and abdominal cavity.

Tubular part of the alimentary canal that extends from the stomach to the anus. The intestine is the site of most chemical digestive processes and the place where digested food materials are either absorbed for use by the body or collected into feces for elimination. The anterior part of the intestine, which is linked to the stomach, is called the small intestine and is followed by a shorter, wider segment called the large intestine that terminates in the anus.

The JAR line is a choriocarcinoma cell line established directly from a trophoblastic tumor of the placenta. This tumor cell line does not express the MAGE-A1 gene (encoding tumor-specific antigens).

Erythroleukemia cell line established from the pleural effusion of a 53-year-old female with chronic myelogenous leukemia in terminal blast crises. The cell population has been characterized as highly undifferentiated and of the granulocytic series. This cell line is also a Philadelphia-positive CML (Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia) cell line. This tumor cell line express the MAGE-A1 gene (encoding tumor-specific antigens).
In vertebrates and some invertebrates, organ that maintains water balance and expels metabolic wastes. Primitive and embryonic kidneys consist of two series of specialized tubules that empty into two collecting ducts, the Wolffian ducts. The more advanced kidney (metanephros) of adult reptiles, birds, and mammals is a paired compact organ whose functional units, called nephrons, filter initial urine from the blood, reabsorb water and nutrients, and secrete wastes, producing the final urine, which is expelled. Reptilian and avian kidneys are made up of many tiny lobules that, in birds, are combined into three or more lobes. Collecting tubules from each lobule empty into a separate branch of the ureter. Reptiles have relatively few nephrons (from 3,000 to 30,000 in lizards), while birds have a great number (around 200,000 in a fowl, twice as many as in a mammal of comparable size).
