Cell adhesion and immune response, two main functions altered in the transcriptome of seasonally regressed testes of two mammalian species

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 340, Issue 3, Page 231-244, May 2023., 2023
During seasonal testis regression in the Iberian mole, Talpa occidenctalis, and the Mediterranean pine vole, Microtus duodecimcostatus, a decrease in serum testosterone levels induces the loss of the cell adhesion between adjacent Sertoli cells (SCs), that implies the disassembly of the blood‐testis barrier, and between SCs and germ cells, that leads ...

Guanaco colonisation of Tierra del Fuego Island from mainland Patagonia: Walked, swam, or by canoe?

Geo: Geography and Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, July‐December 2022., 2022
A geographical and biological puzzle that has perplexed scientists since the late 1800s working in southern South America: why are there so few vertebrates on the island of Tierra del Fuego compared to the adjacent Patagonia mainland, including the absence of the ubiquitous Guanaco (Lama guanicoe), wild camelid of the south? An interdisciplinary search

Identification and localisation of glycoconjugates in the olfactory mucosa of the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus [PDF]

Journal of Anatomy, 1999
Conventional histochemistry and the binding patterns of 22 biotinylated lectins were examined for characterisation of glycoconjugates in the components of the olfactory mucosa of the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus. The mucous lining the olfactory epithelium showed binding sites for DSL, WGA, STL, LEL, PHA‐E and JAC. Only the basilar processes of the
