On Dolly's name, Wilmut stated " Dolly is derived from a mammary gland cell and we couldn't think of a more impressive pair of glands than Dolly Parton's ".

Hydra has a pedal disc composed of gland cells that helps it attach to substrates, and like all cnidarians uses nematocysts, or " stinging cells, " to disable its prey.
23.
Hundreds of gland cells and glandular units are contained in class 1 or 3 and might aggregated to form whole gland organs so as to discharge large amounts of a secretion.
24.
In the case of Dolly the Sheep, the nucleus that was transferred came from mammary gland cells from a 6-year-old ewe; in the case of Polly and Molly, fibroblast cells were used.
25.
The " phantom " gene ( Cyp306a1 ) encodes an encoding the expression of " phm " is restricted to the prothoracic gland cells of the " Drosophila " larval ring gland.
26.
For example, in the suprapedal gland of the land snail " Pomatias elegans " there are three types of gland cells : cells producing mucoproteins, cells producing proteins and cells producing sulphated mucopolysaccharides.
27.
These include a promoter, a kind of biological switch that turns the gene on only at certain times or when the gene is in certain cells; in this case, the animal's mammary gland cells.
28.
The function of bacillary bands is unknown, their ultrastructure suggests that the gland cells may have a role in osmotic or ion regulation, and the nongland cells may function in cuticle formation and food storage.
29.
It acts on the pheromone gland cells using calcium and cyclic AMP . Although the photoperiod regulates the release of PBAN to some extent, the chemical signals from the host plant supersede the effect from the time of day.
30.
In feeding, one or several small pockets form around particles of nutrients on the ventral side, into which digestive enzymes are released by the gland cells; the organisms thus develop a temporary " external stomach ", so to speak.
