The last‐step integrator thesis: Heterarchical control of the mammalian gastrointestinal tract
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Heterarchy of control of the gastrointestinal tract. The production mechanisms (i.e. epithelial cells and muscles) are shown at the bottom in green. Above them are some of the many mechanisms that provide control inputs to these production mechanisms.

Sit‐and‐Wait for the Agoutis: Dung Beetle Phoresy on Dasyprocta azarae in a Tropical Forest
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.ABSTRACT We document the first case of phoresy by dung beetles with a rodent, involving Canthon (Goniocanthon) smaragdulus subviridis and agoutis (Dasyprocta azarae). Camera traps set in a tropical forest recorded 21 phoretic events, with agoutis carrying 1–6 beetles each. This behavior likely enhances how beetles locate fresh dung.

Agouti Mice Models to Study the Diabetogenicity of FK506 (Tacrolimus) [PDF]
, 2001 Dominant mutations in the promoter region of the mouse agouti gene lead to a syndrome characterized by agouti yellow coat color, obesity, hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, type II diabetes and increased linear growth. The mechanism of agouti modulation of

Genetic organization of the agouti region of the mouse.
, 1987 The agouti locus on mouse chromosome 2 acts via the hair follicle to control the melanic type and distribution of hair pigments. The diverse phenotypes associated with various agouti mutations have led to speculation about the organization of the ...

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 11, Page 10459-10474, November 2026.ABSTRACT Aims White adipose tissue (WAT) innervation by sensory and sympathetic axons contributes to tissue functions, but the consequences of selectively disrupting sympathetic input to WAT remain incompletely defined. Materials and Methods We utilised 6‐hydroxydopamine (6‐OHDA) as a validated approach to achieve bilateral sympathetic denervation of ...

Vietnam Journal of Computer Science, 2016 Recently, association rule mining plays a vital role in knowledge discovery in database. In fact, in most cases, the real datasets lead to a very large number of rules, which do not allow users to make their own selection of the most relevant.

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2214-2239, October 2026.ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Helminth parasites of the Trinidad Agouti, Dasyprocta Agouti.
, 1950 This paper consists of several parts which, while dealing with parasites of the agouti, are quite separate in themselves. A general historical account therefore, may be both disconnected and confusing.
