Is Early Life Adversity Associated With Adult Stress in a Wild Rodent?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Using a cumulative adversity index, we found that adult glucocorticoid levels in wild yellow‐bellied marmots vary with the number of early adverse experiences, but their relationship is dependent on elevation. Under more relaxed environmental conditions, at lower elevations, glucocorticoids decrease with increasing adversities, while there is a slight ...

To Understand the Elusive: How to Avoid the Disappearance of the Black Grouse at the Edge of Its Continuous Range?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Our study aimed to indicate the main environmental factors determining the occurrence of a species in a mountain refuge, on the southwestern border of this species' continuous range. Based on a comprehensive model containing data on land cover by vegetation, topography, and human disturbance, we assessed environmental factors that shape the probability

Metabolic abnormalities and reprogramming in cats with naturally occurring hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1256-1270, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Preconception maternal gut dysbiosis affects enteric nervous system development and disease susceptibility in offspring via the GPR41–GDNF/RET/SOX10 signaling pathway

open access: yesiMeta, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2025.
Preconception administration of antibiotics to female mice reduces the abundance of Limosilactobacillus reuteri in the maternal gut microbiota during pregnancy, subsequently affecting propionate levels. Decreased propionate levels downregulated the expression of Gdnf/Ret/Sox10 mediated by GPR41, leading to abnormal development of the enteric nervous ...
