FRANCISCO JAVIER HERNANDEZ BLAZQUEZ is a veterinarian working at the School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science at USP (1981) and completed his doctorate in sciences (cellular and tissue biology) at the University of São Paulo in 1989. He participated as researcher in Proantar, having developed several research projects at the King George Island in the Antarctic continent, mainly in ant artic fish biology. He did postdoctoral work at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (WHO-IARC/WHO) in Lyon, France studying the dynamics of cell-cell communication by gap junctions in skin cells. He is currently a full professor-MS6 at the University of São Paulo and was vice-director of the School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science at USP. He published 91 articles in specialized journals and was supervisor of students in postgraduation and post-doc programs. His current research lines are the control and evolution of liver cirrhosis and the study of cell communication by gap junctions in animal models. In his curriculum the most frequent terms in the context of scientific, technological and artistic-cultural production, in this later aspect, directed to philosophy of science and scientific writing. Key words: intestine, fish, liver, histology, Antarctic, prochilodus scrofa, fish, regeneration, ultrastructure and aflatoxin and connexins. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Studies with stereological design provide tools to obtain quantitative three-dimensional structural data of cells, tissues, organs or structures under study, as this tool has the sensitivity and accuracy necessary to detect small changes (Gundersen et al., 1988; BOYCE et al., 2010). Over the last few years, methods based on stereological design have become the cutting-edge methodology in …
The rumen epithelium and muscles undergo several physiological and morphological adaptations which aim to prepare them for their roles in bacterial fermentation and absorption of volatile fatty acids. The rumen epithelium and myoenteric plexus are crucial (AU)

The cattle are of great importance worldwide due to their production of meat, milk and by-products. Brazil is the world's largest meat exporter, with most of the national economy linked to bovine farming. Bovine animals are included in the Ruminantia suborder, since they have a peculiar digestion process, that is, after a food intake, they regurgitates to the mouth, where a second mastica…
The coating epithelium and ruminal musculature undergo various physiological and morphological adaptations that prepare them for their functions of bacterial fermentation chamber and absorption of volatile fatty acids. The ruminal epithelium and myenteric plexus are crucial for the digestive and physiological adaptations of adult feeding in ruminants, but the cellular and nervous adaptati…
The rumen epithelium is crucial to the digestive and physiological adaptations of the adult feeding ruminants, but the cellular process of adaptation and the most important molecules in epithelial architecture, which are the proteins of the cell junctions, have been little studied. E-cadherin and N-cadherin are molecules which mediate adhesion, migration, cell differentiation processes an…
