Examining the use and weight transfer of four custom‐made partial hindlimb exoprostheses for a dog
Veterinary Record Open, Volume 13, Issue 2, December 2026.Abstract Background Limb exoprosthetics in veterinary medicine are less developed than in human medicine. This case study evaluates four custom‐made hindlimb exoprostheses for a 6‐year‐old dog following metatarsal amputation due to a train accident.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.We establish a tBid‐mediated cell ablation system in axolotls, achieve rapid and efficient ablation of multiple cell types, including muscle stem cell, spinal cord cell, and connective tissue (CT) cells. We investigate the role of CT using tBid‐mediated CT ablation and identify its essential role for limb development and regeneration.
