Effects of resource-dependent cannibalism on population size distribution and individual life history in a case-bearing caddisfly. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Resource availability often determines the intensity of cannibalism, which has a considerable effect on population size distribution and individual life history. Larvae of the caddisfly Psilotreta kisoensis build portable cases from sedimentary sands and

Who eats whom, when and why? Juvenile cannibalism in fish Asian seabass

open access: yesAquaculture and Fisheries, 2017
While juvenile cannibalism plays an important role in the evolution of organisms in natural populations, it is a serious problem in aquaculture. A number of genetic and environmental factors result in different rates of cannibalism.

Growth, cannibalism, and survival relations in larvae of European catfish, Silurus glanis (Actinopterygii: Siluriformes: Siluridae)—attempts to mitigate sibling cannibalism [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2014
Background. Under culture conditions, intra-cohort cannibalism is one of the main factors that affects the growth and survival of fishes, especially during the early life stages of carnivorous species.

Dans ce sens, on peut même dire que l’hégémonie met fin à la domination(La domination se caractérise par la relation maître / esclave - qui est encore une relation duelle, avec un potentiel d’aliénation, de rapports de force et de conflits). Nous intériorisons l’Ordre mondial et son dispositif opérationnel, dont nous sommes les otages bien plus que les

Prmt6 Deficiency or Inhibition Restores Microglial Homeostasis and Promotes Scar‐Limited Repair in Adult Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
After spinal cord injury, adult microglia remain persistently activated with chronic PRMT6 (protein arginine methyltransferase 6) upregulation. Prmt6 deficiency or inhibition reestablishes microglial homeostasis and promotes a scar‐limited repairment, enhancing axonal regrowth.

The tiger salamander as a promising alternative model organism to the axolotl for fracture healing and regenerative biology research

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Scientists have been captivated by the ability to regenerate, focusing on uncovering the mechanisms of epimorphic regeneration and applying them to human medicine. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has become the most intensively studied model in tetrapod regeneration research, particularly concerning limb regeneration.

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.
