Brain regeneration in anuran amphibians [PDF]
Development, Growth & Differentiation, 2007 Urodele amphibians are highly regenerative animals. After partial removal of the brain in urodeles, ependymal cells around the wound surface proliferate, differentiate into neurons and glias and finally regenerate the lost tissue. In contrast to urodeles, this type of brain regeneration is restricted only to the larval stages in anuran amphibians ...

Tree cover and habitat type mediate taxonomic and phylogenetic anuran diversity in Southeastern Peru
Global Ecology and ConservationUnderstanding the drivers that shape anuran diversity is crucial for identifying conservation hotspots, particularly as global anuran declines threaten the reduction of their ecosystem functions across food chains.

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Organisms that shift their phenologies in response to global warming will experience novel photic environments, as photoperiod (daylength) continues to follow the same annual cycle.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Despite frogs avoiding low temperatures, examination of four salamander species revealed that none avoided cold and all possessed cold tolerance. Functional analysis of TRPM8, a cold sensor, showed that all salamander TRPM8s had lost their cold sensitivity.

A Depolarizing Leak in Sodium Bicarbonate Cotransporter NBCe1 Causes Brain Edema
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives SLC4A4 encodes electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter NBCe1, prominently expressed in kidney and brain. Recessive loss‐of‐function variants in SLC4A4 cause proximal renal tubular acidosis, no brain edema. In the brain, NBCe1 is expressed by astrocytes, where it regulates pH and mediates astrocyte volume changes.

Animals, 2023 Disruptive selection arises when extreme phenotypes have a fitness advantage compared to more-intermediate phenotypes. Theory and evidence suggest that intraspecific resource competition is a key driver of disruptive selection. However, while competition

Regeneration in Hypophysectomized Anuran Tadpoles.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1960 Summary1. A comparison was made between regenerating tail-tips in normal and hypophysectomized Rana pipiens tadpoles. 2. No significant differences were noted in amount of regeneration/unit time or in the histology of regenerates. 3. Age of the hypophysectomized animal had no discernible effect on tail-tip regeneration. 4.
