Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Ancient origin of the furin sequence in the wolf F8 gene
Background: Our previous characterization of canine coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) in the naturally occurring hemophilia A (HA) dog models provided insight into the evolution of the FVIII protein. We noted a unique sequence (H1645) in the R-X-X-R furin-
