Genetical genomics of growth in a chicken model

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background The genetics underlying body mass and growth are key to understanding a wide range of topics in biology, both evolutionary and developmental. Body mass and growth traits are affected by many genetic variants of small effect.

Chronotype predicts body mass index via emotion regulation strategy use and emotional eating

open access: yes, 2023
An individual’s orientation towards mornings or evenings, referred to as chronotype, is predictive of both physical and mental health outcomes. An evening chronotype is associated with elevated body mass index and a less nutritious diet.

Going High to Keep Body Mass Low: How Post-Exercise Exposure to a Simulated High Altitude Influences Energy Balance—A Proof-of-Concept Pilot Study

open access: yesObesities
A healthy body mass contributes to a positive quality of life, and for overweight/obese individuals, weight loss of even modest proportions improves health-related outcomes. A novel approach to promoting body mass regulation is to pair exercise with high

Influence of body mass and environmental oxygen tension on the oxygen consumption rates of an enteropneust, Glossobalanus crozieri

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1997
The present study deals with a species of enteropneust, Glossobalanus crozieri, focusing on two aspects of its respiration: a) oxygen consumption and body mass, and b) the influence of environmental oxygen tension on the respiratory rate.

Between‐year and spatial variation in body condition across the breeding cycle in a pelagic seabird, the Red‐billed Tropicbird

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Body condition in pelagic seabirds impacts key fitness‐related traits such as reproductive performance and breeding frequency. Regulation of body condition can be especially important for species with long incubation periods and long individual ...

How Metabolic Rate Relates to Cell Size

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Metabolic rate and its covariation with body mass vary substantially within and among species in little understood ways. Here, I critically review explanations (and supporting data) concerning how cell size and number and their establishment by cell ...

Comparative analysis of energy homeostasis regulation at different altitudes in Hengduan Mountain of red-backed vole, Eothenomys miletus, during high-fat diet acclimation: examining gut microbial and physiological interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
The study aimed to explore the similarities and differences in gut microorganisms and their functions in regulating body mass in Eothenomys miletus across different altitudes in the Hengduan Mountains when exposed to a high-fat diet.

Hypomethylation of Alu elements in post-menopausal women with osteoporosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
A decrease in genomic methylation commonly occurs in aging cells; however, whether this epigenetic modification leads to age-related phenotypes has not been evaluated.
