Chorda

To explain the findings, lead researcher Linda Bartoshuk says repeated ear infections might permanently damage a nerve called the chorda tympani. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Lopsidedness as such, therefore, was not to be regarded as an embryological character in ancient fishes; what might be regarded as such was the absence of a bony sheath to the end of the "chorda" found in the more developed fishes. ❋ Huxley, Leonard (1900)

This investigation showed that the apparently even development was only an extreme case of lopsidedness, the continuation of the "chorda," which gives rise to the spine, being at the top of the upper fin, and both fins being developed on the same side of it. ❋ Thomas Henry Huxley (1860)

Petrum: Alij veniunt cum chorda ad collum, alij cum manibus retro ligatis, alij cum cultello in brachio vel tibia defixo, et si post peregrinationem fiat brachium marcidum, illum reputant sanctum, et benè cum Deo suo. ❋ Unknown (2004)

Vide Lector, quàm Munsterum iuuet, eadem oberrare chorda: vt cum de gente ignota nihil scribere possit, quod coloris aliquid habeat, vel falsa afferre, vel eadem sæpius repetere, sicque cramben eandem recoquere sustineat: Dixerat enim paulò ante, Islandos piscibus viuere. ❋ Unknown (2003)

Howell1 had come to believe that vagus stimulation released potassium in the heart and that this was the cause of the resultant effect, and Bayliss2 discussed the possibility, in view of the similarity in action of the so-called vagomimetic substances and chorda stimulation, that this stimulation might be caused by the production of such substances. ❋ Unknown (1965)

Acetylcholine, released at the peripheral endings of the vagus or the chorda tympani, could be pictured as reaching the heart cells or those of the salivary gland by diffusion, and there inhibiting an automatic rhythm, or exciting glandular secretion. ❋ Unknown (1965)

Contractions of the bladder after stimulation of the pelvic nerve, dilation of the vessels of the salivary gland after stimulation of the chorda nerve still occur even after atropinization. ❋ Unknown (1965)

An intracellular formation of cells occurs only in the ovum, in cartilage cells and chorda cells and in a few others, and even there it is not the exclusive method of formation; a formation of cells within cells never occurs in muscles and nerves, nor in fibrous tissue (p. 204). ❋ Unknown (N/A)

(Evolved from Scolecida by formation of dorsal nerve-tube and chorda, and resembling tailed larvæ of Ascidians.) 4. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

The cranial section of the chorda itself shows no sign of segmentation; but later on the cranial portion of the chorda-sheath ossifies, like the vertebræ, from several centres. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

As regards the vertebræ, Rathke describes them as being formed in the sheath of the chorda from paired rudiments, each of which sends two branches upwards, and two branches downwards. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

The two inner pairs of processes coalesce round the chorda, and later form the centrum; the upper outer pair meet above the spinal column; the lower outer pair form ribs. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

It causes insalivation by paralysis of the secretory fibers of the chorda tympani; increases the flow of bile; has no action upon the spleen. ❋ Various (N/A)

He here makes the interesting suggestion, later entirely confirmed, that the _basis cranii_ or basilar plate is first laid down as two strips, one on each side of the chorda -- the structures now known as parachordals (pp. 6, 27). ❋ Unknown (N/A)

He found that the vertebral centra were first formed as rings in the chorda-sheath, which give off neural and hæmal processes. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

The analogy indeed in structure and development between chorda and cartilage cells and the cells of plants seemed to him complete. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
