  Cryopreservation of fish gametes

  Judith Betsy, Stephen Kumar, editors.

  Summary: Understanding the reproductive physiology and endocrinology of fishes is essential for captive maturation and seed production in the field of aquaculture. Studying the spermatology of fishes is a comparatively new focus in aquaculture, which has emerged as an important area of fish research over the past two decades. In this regard, the cryopreservation of fish gametes is a crucial aspect. Moreover, energetics studies of gametes have become essential, considering the loss of vigour in the spermatozoa after cryopreservation. The latest development in this context is the cryopreservation of spermatogonial stem cell, which is also covered in the book, along with detailed information on embryo cryopreservation in fishes and crustaceans. The role of cryopreservation in conservation programmes is another important aspect, one that will especially interest biologists. This book addresses central issues in fish gamete cryopreservation and breeding, while also reviewing the history of cryopreservation. Its most unique feature is the breadth of its coverage, from basic information on reproduction in fishes, to such advanced topics as embryo cryopreservation. Chiefly intended as a handy troubleshooting guide, the book represents a valuable resource for research students in related fields.

  Syndromes myéloprolifératifs familiaux. Etude à propos de six familles et revue de la littérature. [Familial myeloproliferative syndromes. Study of 6 families and review of literature].

  Kaufman S, Brière J, Bernard J.

  Nouv Rev Fr Hematol (1978). 1978 Apr 14;20(1):1-15.

  Ten clinical observations concerning six families with familial myeloproliferative disorders are reported. Family no. 1 : two brothers, RES with myelosclerosis and ROS with chronic myeloid leukemia. Family no. 2 : PG atypical myeloproliferative syndrome and his brother polycythemia vera. Family no. 3 : DF myelosclerosis and her son (DR) polycythemia vera. Family no. 4 : DM, polycythemia vera, the mother and a sister with splenomegaly. The brother died with myelofibrosis. Family no. 5 : GA and ML, cousins with polycythemia vera. Family no. 6 : MB and ZG, a brother and sister with polycythemia vera. No consanguinity and no toxic, infections or malignant etiology were found in these families. The literature reviewed emphasises the rarity of the familial incidence of myeloproliferative disorders.
