Myosin VIIA is required for aminoglycoside accumulation in cochlear hair cells. [PDF]
Myosin VIIA is expressed by sensory hair cells and has a primary structure predicting a role in membrane trafficking and turnover, processes that may underlie the susceptibility of hair cells to aminoglycoside antibiotics. [3H]Gentamicin accumulation and

Bullfrog growth parameters in continuous water-flow tanks systems on a commercial scale
The growth parameters of hatchery-reared bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) reared at commercial continuous water-flow tanks systems were studied and discussed. We stock 3.000 juvenile with a density of 60 frogs/m2 (mean weight 16 ± 1.82 g) into three 16.

Synaptic up-scaling preserves motor circuit output after chronic, natural inactivity
Neural systems use homeostatic plasticity to maintain normal brain functions and to prevent abnormal activity. Surprisingly, homeostatic mechanisms that regulate circuit output have mainly been demonstrated during artificial and/or pathological ...

ABSTRACT The southern alligator lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) exhibits prolonged mate‐holding behavior. This behavior maybe be underpinned by a phenomenon known as sustained force, observed in the jaw muscles of this species, in which the muscle fails to relax between subsequent contractions.

Abstract The NLRP3 inflammasome is essential for innate immunity against pathogens, yet its function in amphibians remains poorly understood. Here, we identified and cloned two novel isoforms of NLRP3 from the American bullfrog (Aquarana catesbeiana), designated AcNLRP3 X1 and AcNLRP3 X2, with open reading frames of 2397 bp (798 aa) and 2874 bp (957 aa)

Physiological Responses of Juvenile Bullfrogs (Aquarana catesbeiana) to Salinity Stress
Bullfrogs (Aquarana catesbeiana) are increasingly farmed for their high nutritional value and adaptability to intensive aquaculture systems. However, salinity stress due to environmental changes and habitat salinization poses a significant challenge for ...

Dataset for de novo transcriptome assembly of the African bullfrog Pyxicephalus adspersus
In this article, we report the first de novo transcriptome assembly of the African bullfrog Pyxicephalus adspersus. In this data, 75,320,390 raw reads were acquired from African bullfrog mRNA using Illumina paired-end sequencing platform.

ABSTRACT In our rapidly changing world, evolution is likely to play an important role in facilitating the resilience of wildlife populations. The Sierra Nevada yellow‐legged frog (Rana sierrae) provides a rare example of recovery following severe declines caused by the amphibian chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis).

Slow synaptic transmission in frog sympathetic ganglia [PDF]
Bullfrog ganglia contain two classes of neurone, B and C cells, which receive different inputs and exhibit different slow synaptic potentials. B cells, to which most effort has been directed, possess slow and late slow EPSPs.
