Regulatory compliance and support for altered management of the exotic pet trade
Abstract Globally, the exotic pet trade has contributed to species invasion, disease, and animal welfare risks. Although scientists have advocated for increased trade regulation, the success of management and regulatory efforts depends on compliance by participants in the exotic pet trade. We used a regulatory compliance framework to investigate exotic

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Ecologization Is Not a Metaphor: Museums in the Web of Life
ABSTRACT This article documents and critiques emerging accounts of museum “ecologization”. Drawing on political ecology, materialist theory, and contemporary museum practice, we challenge dominant frameworks of ecological modernization and advocate for a more critical understanding of museums in the web of life.

This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.

Itch‐induced tick removal (IITR): An acquired neuroimmune mechanism, itch‐induced tick removal, develops after repeated tick exposure, mobilizing T cells and macrophages at the tick bite site to trigger a rapid scratching response that facilitates timely tick removal within a critical window that precedes the transmission of many tick‐borne pathogens ...

Abstract INTRODUCTION Cerebrovascular deficits, including cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), play a key role in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Here, we characterize the susceptibility of the WSB/EiJ genetic context to human AD‐relevant cerebrovascular phenotypes. METHODS CAA and parenchymal plaque analysis and in vivo neurovascular imaging were

Abstract INTRODUCTION Impaired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ‐mediated clearance has been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how choroid plexus (ChP) remodeling relates to these processes in vivo remains incompletely understood. METHODS In a large ADNI cohort, we integrated structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), amyloid/tau positron emission

KCNJ4 variants disrupt inward‐rectifier potassium channel function and cause refractory epilepsy
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with a strong genetic basis, most frequently arising from ion channel dysfunction. Although multiple inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels have been implicated in epileptogenesis, the contribution of KCNJ4, which encodes the Kir2.3 channel, has not previously been established in human

Convexity and Marginal Vectors [PDF]
In this paper we construct sets of marginal vectors of a TU game with the property that if the marginal vectors from these sets are core elements, then the game is convex.This approach leads to new upperbounds on the number of marginal vectors needed to ...

Infectious diseases are the prime cause of morbidity and mortality in animals leading to heavy economic losses to the livestock/poultry industry. One of the most effective ways to control these losses is by use of recombinant vaccines.
