    Chronostratigraphy of Campanian-Maastrichtian platform carbonates and rudist associations of Salento (Apulia, Italy)

    No full text
    Late Cretaceous platform carbonates from the Salento peninsula (south Italy) were studied by strontium-isotope stratigraphy to improve their chronostratigraphy. Forty-three samples from nine localities were collected and the numerical ages were derived from fifteen geochemically well-preserved samples of rudist shells that were analyzed for 87Sr/86Sr values. Strontium isotope stratigraphy yielded new ages for the base of the Ciolo Limestone. The oldest successions studied in Salento are 85.9 Ma (þ/ 0.6) and assigned to the Melissano Limestone. The youngest Cretaceous limestones observed at the Ciolo Limestone type locality (Ciolo cove) are 66.4 Ma (þ/ 1.5), and the base of this formation is older than 72.8 Ma (þ/ 0.4). Karstic cavities observed at the Cava Cocumola in the mid-Campanian S. Cesarea Limestone are tentatively interpreted to be linked to an intra-Campanian event which is related to a sea-level lowstand inferred also on the island of Brac (Adriatic coast of Croatia) and in the Boreal realm at 75e77 Ma. A new large recumbent rudist similar to Sabinia and Pseudosabinia is observed in the Ciolo and S. Cesarea Limestone and appears to be characteristic of the Apulian platform carbonates. Rudist associations from the S. Cesarea Limestone and the overlying Ciolo Limestone are remarkably similar, although they range over a time interval of more than 12 Ma

    Experimental analyses of the function of the proepicardium using a new microsurgical procedure to induce loss-of-proepicardial-function in chick embryos

    No full text
    The proepicardium (PE) is a primarily extracardiac progenitor cell population that colonizes the embryonic heart and delivers the epicardium, the subepicardial and intramyocardial fibroblasts, and the coronary vessels. Recent data show that PE-derived cells additionally play important regulatory roles in myocardial development and possibly in the normal morphogenesis of the heart. Research on the latter topics profits from the fact that loss-of-PE-function can be experimentally induced in chick embryos. So far, two microsurgical techniques were used to produce such embryos: (1) blocking of PE cell transfer with pieces of the eggshell membrane, and (2) mechanical excision of PE. Both of these techniques, however, have their shortcomings. We have searched, therefore, for new techniques to eliminate the PE. Here, we show that loss-of-PE-function can be induced by photoablation of the PE. Chick embryos were treated in ovo by means of a window in the eggshell at Hamburger and Hamilton (HH) stage 16 (iday 3). The pericardial coelom was opened, and the PE was externally stained with a 1% solution of Rose Bengal by means of a micropipette. Photoactivation of the dye was accomplished by illumination of the operation field with visible light. Examination on postoperative day 1 (iday 4, HH stages 19/20) disclosed complete removal of PE in every experimental embryo. On iday 9 (HH stages 33/34), the survival rate of experimental embryos was 35.7% (15 of 42). Development of the PE-derivatives was compromised in the heart of every survivor. The abnormalities encompassed hydro- or hemopericardium, epicardium-free areas with aneurysmatic outward bulging of the ventricular wall, thin myocardium, defects of the coronary vasculature, and abnormal tissue bridges between the ventricles and the pericardial wall. Our results show that photoablation of the PE is a powerful technique to induce long-lasting loss-of-PE-function in chick embryos. We have additionally obtained new data that suggest that the embryonic epicardium may make important contributions to the passive mechanics of the developing heart. (c) 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc
