Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) Signaling in The Prefrontal Cortex Modulates Cued Fear Learning, But Not Spatial Working Memory, in Female Rats [PDF]
, 2018 A genetic polymorphism within the gene encoding the pituitary adenylate cyclase- activating polypeptide (PACAP) receptor type I (PAC1R) has recently been associated with hyper-reactivity to threat-related cues in women, but not men, with post-traumatic ...

Safety Evaluation of an Aqueous Root and Leaf Extract of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.Sensoril, an aqueous root and leaf extract of ashwagandha showed no evidence of mutagenicity in the in vitro Ames assay, was negative in the in vitro micronucleus, in vivo mammalian bone marrow chromosome aberration assays, and was well tolerated in the rat at up to 4000 mg/kg BW/day when administered orally for a period of 90 days. The data from these

Portable Radar for Noncontact Heart Rate Monitoring and Estrus Detection in Dairy Cows
IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.This study introduces a portable radar system for real‐time monitoring of respiratory and heart rates in dairy cows. It uses millimeter‐wave Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar to perform noncontact physiological sensing, reducing behavioral disturbance. The radar system's design prioritizes portability, cost‐effectiveness, and robustness,

Sex differences in variability across timescales in BALB/c mice. [PDF]
, 2017 BackgroundFemales are markedly underinvestigated in the biological and behavioral sciences due to the presumption that cyclic hormonal changes across the ovulatory cycle introduce excess variability to measures of interest in comparison to males. However,

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Overabundant populations of eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus in peri‐urban areas pose ecological and social challenges. Current management strategies are often hindered by animal welfare and logistical concerns. This study aimed to assess stress responses of kangaroos to two contraceptive delivery methods.

Association between estrus and onset of seizures in dogs with idiopathic epilepsy [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Catamenial epilepsy in humans is defined as changes in seizure frequency over the course of the menstrual cycle. Three hormonally based patterns of seizure exacerbation have been determined.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Species respond to climate change through phenological and spatial shifts. Herbivorous mammals, in particular, are vulnerable due to their direct dependence on seasonal vegetation and the potential misalignment between their reproductive cycles and shifting food availability.
