DiversityThe fossil and molecular evidence suggests that the area of origin of the Hairy Armadillo Chaetophractus villosus was the central Pampas region of Argentina, with a current distribution that includes Bolivia, Paraguay and Chile.

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Cingulata, a major lineage of Xenarthra, comprises extinct and extant armoured placental mammals that diversified throughout the Cenozoic. Despite extensive study, phylogenetic hypotheses based on morphological and molecular data remain incongruent, and no total evidence analysis has been conducted. Here, we integrate the largest morphological

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.In the Drosophila ovarian niche, an E‐cadherin‐to‐N‐cadherin switch, mediated by Wnt‐mir‐994 signalling, is repurposed to ensure niche resilience. This compensatory mechanism maintains niche integrity and stem cell support upon E‐cadherin loss, revealing a robustness circuit.

Hypercortisolism: Causes, Consequences and Clinical Significance – A Review of Pathophysiology
Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hypercortisolism or Cushing syndrome is a heterogeneous clinical spectrum caused by chronic glucocorticoid excess, ranging from exogenous Cushing syndrome to rare endogenous aetiologies and the increasingly recognised entity of mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS). Physiological cortisol production is tightly regulated by the hypothalamic–

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2000 We censused and measured armadillo burrows in ten 10 m x 40 m plots in each of four habitat types at a study site in northern Florida and one in the Atlantic coastal rainforest of Brazil.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Evolutionary and mechanistic divergence in the Hsp70–Hsp110 chaperone system. Prokaryotic Hsp70s probably diversified into multiple orthologues that cooperated with co‐chaperones such as JDPs and NEF, forming increasingly complex proteostasis networks.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.This review summarizes recent structures of the UBR4 complex, a giant E4 ubiquitin ligase which recognizes proteins with pre‐existing ubiquitin modifications and marks them for degradation. The UBR4 complex uses a large arena lined with substrate interaction modules to select features on ubiquitinated substrates, such as the presence of N‐degrons or ...

MyD88‐Family Adaptors: Compartmentalised Signalling and Non‐Immune Functions
Immunology, EarlyView.MyD88‐family adaptors coordinate receptor‐ and compartment‐specific innate immune signalling across plasma membrane and endosomal pathways. At the plasma membrane, TIRAP/MAL supports MyD88‐dependent signalling downstream of TLR2 and TLR4, whereas endosomal TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 recruit MyD88 directly.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and greater suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and have muscle architectural properties consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the shoulder and elbow joints, and grip on the support as indicated by their myology. Abstract Two‐toed sloths
