Body temperatures of Manis pentadactyla and Manis javanica

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Body temperature is an important parameter for assessing animal health and physiological function. An iButton thermometer was used to measure the body temperatures of three Chinese pangolins (Manis pentadacyla) and three Sunda pangolins (M.

Testing mechanisms of Bergmann’s rule: Phenotypic decline but no genetic change in body size in three posserine bird populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Bergmann’s rule predicts a decrease in body size with increasing temperature and has much empirical support. Surprisingly, we know very little about whether “Bergmann size clines” are due to a genetic response or are a consequence of phenotypic ...

Three-body problem at finite temperature and density [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We derive practical three-body equations for the equal-time three-body Green function in matter. Our equations describe both bosons and fermions at finite density and temperature, and take into account all possible two-body sub-processes allowed by the ...

Non-Viable Lactobacillus johnsonii JNU3402 Protects against Diet-Induced Obesity

open access: yesFoods, 2020
In this study, the role of non-viable Lactobacillus johnsonii JNU3402 (NV-LJ3402) in diet-induced obesity was investigated in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD). To determine whether NV-LJ3402 exhibits a protective effect against diet-induced obesity, 7-week-

Inactivation of Serotonergic Neurons in the Rostral Medullary Raphé Attenuates Stress-Induced Tachypnea and Tachycardia in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
The medullary raphé nuclei are involved in controlling cardiovascular, respiratory, and thermoregulatory functions, as well as mediating stress-induced tachycardia and hyperthermia.

Functional Changes Induced by Orexin A and Adiponectin on the Sympathetic/Parasympathetic Balance

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Obesity and lifestyle-related diseases are major problems faced by people in developed nations. Although exercise training prevents the progression of diabetes and obesity, the motivation for exercise is generally low in obese animals and humans.

Loss of largest and oldest individuals of the Montpellier snake correlates with recent warming in the southeastern Iberian Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The effects of climate change on organisms are now being extensively studied in many different taxa. However, the variation in body size, usually shrinkage in response to increasing temperature, has received little attention regarding to reptiles. During
