Highlights Glucagon receptor (GCGR) monoclonal antibody (mAb) improves cardiac function and attenuates microvascular damage in db/db mice. GCGR mAb ameliorates the oxidative stress of cardiac microvascular endothelial cells in diabetic mice. GCGR mAb counteracts the diabetes‐induced upregulation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1B, optic atrophy type ...

Red‐list status and extinction risk of the world's whales, dolphins, and porpoises
Abstract To understand the scope and scale of the loss of biodiversity, tools are required that can be applied in a standardized manner to all species globally, spanning realms from land to the open ocean. We used data from the International Union for the Conservation of Nature Red List to provide a synthesis of the conservation status and extinction ...

Use of carrion fly iDNA metabarcoding to monitor invasive and native mammals
Abstract Severely fragmented habitats increase the risk of extirpation of native mammal populations through isolation, increased edge effects, and predation. Therefore, monitoring the movement of mammal populations through anthropogenically altered landscapes can inform conservation. We used metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) from carrion

A review to the methods of personality measurements in wild animals 野生动物个性测量方法的综述
One of the challenges in animal personality study is finding a suitable method to measure personality. Here, we outlined three methods (traits rating, behavioral coding, and experimentation) used in animal personality measurement. We found that traits rating was commonly used to test large‐sized animals (e.g., primates), behavioral coding was conducted

Highlights Increased glutamate is associated with the development of diabetes. Glutamate increases plasminogen (PLG) levels through glutamate metabotropic receptor 5 activation with various insulin resistance‐related stresses. Glutamate inhibits the conversion of PLG to plasmin by increasing plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1.

ABCA12 Frameshift Deletion in Domestic Cats With Ichthyosis Fetalis
ABSTRACT Background Ichthyosis fetalis (IF), also known as harlequin ichthyosis, is a rare and often fatal autosomal recessive congenital skin disorder. It is characterized by thickened, hard skin plaques and deep skin fissures that limit mobility and cause malformations of the eyes, lips and ears.

Characterization of Tmem59l knockout mice [PDF]
TMEM59L是一种脑特异性高表达蛋白,其组织表达的特异性预示着TMEM59L可能在神经系统发育和神经退行性疾病发生中起着重要的作用,但是目前对于该蛋白的生理学和病理学功能都知之甚少,有必要在动物水平上加以深入研究。 我们最近获得了Tmem59l基因敲除小鼠。在本论文中,我们对该小鼠的表型进行了系统分析。我们发现Tmem59l-/-小鼠的出生遵从孟德尔遗传定律(+/+:+/-:-/-=72:136:65)。不过虽然Tmem59l-/-小鼠的形态大小以及脑的解剖结构与野生型小鼠没有显著差异 ...
