Approaching Scarless Wound Healing: From Passive Anti‐Fibrotic to Proactive and Programmable Pro‐Regenerative Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review outlines the wound healing process and factors influencing scar formation, explores how certain animals and human fetuses achieve scarless skin or tissue regeneration, and details tissue engineering material strategies employed in scarless wound dressings.

Exercise and thermoregulation

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2012
Humans have physiological, intellectual, and cultural capabilities to maintain viable body temperatures under several conditions. We do exercise in daily living for labor, health, and just fun.

The biopsychology of maternal behavior in nonhuman mammals [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The term “maternal behavior,” when applied to nonhuman mammals, includes the behaviors exhibited in preparation for the arrival of newborn, in the care and protection of the newly arrived young, and in the weaning of those young, and represents a complex

A snake of a different color: physiological color change in Arizona black rattlesnakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Coloration may serve a variety of behavioral (e.g., crypsis, communication) and physiological (e.g., thermoregulation, protection) functions for terrestrial ectotherms. However, optimal coloration for a given function may vary over environments (spatial

Embedded Direct‐Written Organic Micro‐TEGs for High‐Efficiency Skin‐Heat Harvesting

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A finite‐element–guided design of direct‐written organic micro‐thermoelectric generators is presented for efficient skin‐heat harvesting. Embedding PEDOT:PSS/PBFDO thermoelectric legs within flexible substrates suppresses interfacial heat losses and enhances vertical heat flow.

Thermosensitivity of the lobster, Homarus americanus, as determined by cardiac assay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
It is generally accepted that crustaceans detect, and respond to, changes in water temperature, yet few studies have directly addressed their thermosensitivity.

Low temperatures impact species distributions of jumping spiders across a desert elevational cline. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Temperature is known to influence many aspects of organisms and is frequently linked to geographical species distributions. Despite the importance of a broad understanding of an animal's thermal biology, few studies incorporate more than one metric of ...

Inside a duck‐billed dinosaur: Vertebral bone microstructure of Huallasaurus (Hadrosauridae), Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dinosaurs evolved a unique respiratory system with air sacs that contributed to their evolutionary success. Postcranial skeletal pneumaticity (PSP) has been used to infer the presence of air sac systems in some fossil archosaurs. While unambiguous evidence of PSP is well documented in pterosaurs and post‐Carnian saurischians, it remains absent

Move, migrate, or tolerate: Quantifying three tactics for cold‐water fish coping with warm summers in a large river

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Mainstem rivers are important for provisioning cold‐water fisheries and often support fluvial life histories that grow much larger than resident counterparts in tributaries. However, mainstem rivers are also warmer than tributaries during summer and more

The orchestration of autonomous and behavioral thermoregulation [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2018
There seems to be an efficient order in the recruitment of thermo-effectors, which allows for body temperature regulation at minimal cost of nutrients and water. But how does thermal behaviour fit in this order? In this edition Schlader et al. hypothesized that thermal behavior fits in the orderly recruitment of thermo-effectors as follows: 1 ...
