Loci associated with conception rate in crossbred beef heifers.
The inability of beef cattle to maintain full term pregnancies has become an economic concern for the beef industry. Herd management and nutritional improvements have alleviated environmental impacts on embryonic and fetal loss, yet additional gains can ...

Impact and Crystallization Modeling of the Sudbury Basin and Its Implications for a Hadean Crust
Abstract The 1.85 Ga Sudbury Structure hosts Earth's largest and best‐preserved impact‐induced melt sheet, the Sudbury Igneous Complex (SIC), which crystallized into distinct noritic, gabbroic, and granophyric layers. We conduct impact simulations with iSALE‐2D and crystallization modeling using alphaMELTS 2 to track the formation and evolution of the ...

Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are activated by an increase in the extracellular proton concentration. There are four genes (ASIC1-4) that encode six subunits, and they are involved in diverse neuronal functions, such as mechanosensation, learning and

This study identifies ASIC1a as a key modulator of neuroinflammation following traumatic brain injury. Pharmacological inhibition of ASIC1a mitigates neuronal pyroptosis and improves neurological outcomes, a protective effect closely associated with the downregulation of the NF‐κB/NLRP3 signaling axis.

Abstract Cardiac afferent neurons have been shown to trigger overactivation of neurohormonal systems known to drive adverse cardiac remodeling following myocardial infarction (MI). Acid‐sensing ion channels (ASICs) that are highly expressed in cardiac sympathetic afferents sense ischemia‐induced myocardial acidosis.

Astrocytic TCF7L2 Impacts Brain Osmoregulation and Restricts Neuronal Excitability
Astrocytic TCF7L2 impacts extracellular glutamate and glutamine levels. Loss of astrocytic TCF7L2 disrupts extracellular potassium clearance. TCF7L2‐dependent astrocytic changes reduce neuronal excitability. ABSTRACT Astrocytes differentiate and mature during postnatal development, but the molecular mechanisms linking their maturation to neuronal ...

This study describes derivation of two distinct mechanosensory subpopulations from human pluripotent stem cells using a transcription factor mediated approach. Of significance, functional interrogation of induced mechanosensory subtypes reveal their unique responses to mechanical stimulation in the absence of end‐organs.

ABSTRACT Sensory neuron disorders, such as peripheral neuropathies and trigeminal neuralgia, cause chronic pain and sensory dysfunction; however, regenerative treatments are limited. Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) provide a powerful platform to model these diseases by generating functional sensory neuron subtypes, including nociceptors and ...

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: Ion channels
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,

Characterisation of spinal ligaments in the embryonic chick
Use of the embryonic chick provides an opportunity to examine the maturation of spinal ligaments during development, to inform anatomical defects in the spine. Abstract Ligaments are important connective tissues within the musculoskeletal system that connect bone to bone and provide support and stability.
