Pandemic Geographies of Home: Domestic Thresholding in Response to COVID‐19

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract With the home at the forefront of political and public health responses to COVID‐19, the thresholds between domestic space and the world beyond acquired a new significance in people's everyday lives. This paper introduces the concept of ‘thresholding’ to explore the ways in which internal and external thresholds are understood and ...

Regeneration of the lizard heart after cryoinjury

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lizards are renowned for their tremendous potential to heal tissues and organs after injury, but little is known about myocardial regeneration in reptiles generally. Here, we study cardiac regeneration in the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius) to fill the knowledge gap between traditional models of poikilothermic (zebrafish) and ...

The cardiac pacemakers: A paradigm of robustness in evolutionary biology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Functional networks in living systems are formed by many thousands of gene products. In association with those networks, several genes (four in this diagram) may be sufficient, each on its own, to ensure that the function occurs. Any one of these may be removed or blocked while leaving the others to continue functioning.

Mitochondrial physiology in cardiac muscle of deer mice native to high altitude

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude deer mice exhibited evolved changes in mitochondrial energy metabolism and reactive oxygen species (ROS) management that may support cardiac performance under cold hypoxic conditions. High‐altitude mice had increased activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the heart, probably enhancing the capacity for lactate ...
