Sepsis by Plesiomonas shigelloides, Citrobacter freundii and Aeromonas jandaei in a green iguana (Iguana iguana) [PDF]
Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira: Iguanids are susceptible to several bacterial infections, especially those caused by Gram-negative bacteria. The development of these diseases in reptiles is related to management, inadequate sanitary conditions, and immunosuppression.

Identification of a novel splicing form of amelogenin gene in a reptile, Ctenosaura similis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Amelogenin, the major enamel matrix protein in tooth development, has been demonstrated to play a significant role in tooth enamel formation. Previous studies have identified the alternative splicing of amelogenin in many mammalian vertebrates as one ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Geckos and anoline iguanid lizards are well‐known for their possession of adhesive toepads, which are generally regarded as being convergent structures. We show that the anatomical configuration of the foot in these two lineages differs markedly and that these differences likely relate to the contrasing ways they deploy their adhesive systems and ...

Geographic body size variation in ectotherms: effects of seasonality on an anuran from the southern temperate forest [PDF]
, 2015 Indexación: Web of Science; Scopus.Background: Body size variation has played a central role in biogeographical research, however, most studies have aimed to describe trends rather than search for underlying mechanisms.

A 50‐year perspective on the use and potential of artiodactyl calcanei in bone adaptation studies
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 437-485, February 2026.ABSTRACT Sheep and deer calcanei are important models for studying cortical (compact) and trabecular (cancellous) bone adaptation because they are amenable to direct strain measurement (due to lack of surrounding muscles), experience relatively simple/unidirectional bending, exhibit osteon remodelling, and have the most pronounced regional variations ...
