Compromised nutrition in gerbils infected by Cystoisospora felis detected through an animal performance analysis tool Comprometimento nutricional em gerbis infectados por Cystoisospora felis detectado através de uma ferramenta de análise de desempenho animal

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2011
The impact of Cystoisospora felis infection on the nutritional efficiency of gerbils was studied. The variables weight gain and feed intake were measured during four weeks in 28 laboratory gerbils, of which 14 were inoculated with 3.5 × 10(5) sporulated ...

Divergent genes in gerbils: prevalence, relation to GC-biased substitution, and phenotypic relevance

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2020
Background Two gerbil species, sand rat (Psammomys obesus) and Mongolian jird (Meriones unguiculatus), can become obese and show signs of metabolic dysregulation when maintained on standard laboratory diets. The genetic basis of this phenotype is unknown.

Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Adjustment of interaural-time-difference analysis to sound level [PDF]

, 2010
To localize low-frequency sound sources in azimuth, the binaural system compares the timing of sound waves at the two ears with microsecond precision. A similarly high precision is also seen in the binaural processing of the envelopes of high-frequency ...
