Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Effects of methylmercury bioaccumulation on survival of Columbia Spotted Frogs were modified by sex and length and were mediated by corticosterone (a glucocorticoid hormone) whereas effects of chytrid fungus were limited. ABSTRACT Amphibians have suffered widespread declines caused by many interacting factors whose effects are often difficult to ...

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.Female budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) did not significantly elevate their plasma corticosterone levels in response to human presence at the beginning of the experiment. However, plasma corticosterone was significantly elevated by restraint stress, the return of a neighbor that received restraint stress, and human presence at the end of the ...

Thyroid thermogenesis in adult rat hepatocytes in primary monolayer culture: direct action of thyroid hormone in vitro. [PDF]
, 1979 We have studied the effect of 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) on the respiration of adult rat hepatocytes in primary monolayer culture prepared from hypothyroid rat liver. After addition of T3 to the culture medium at a concentration of 2 x 10(-7) M, oxygen

Does nocturnal light pollution impair immune function in a wild‐living amphibian?
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Light pollution is among the most rapidly growing anthropogenic stressors on Earth. As it spreads far beyond its original source, it affects natural protected areas playing a key role in protecting biodiversity.
