Forgetting cane grasses: Switching temporal focus to reveal mosaics of Saccharum diversity

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Sugarcane (Saccharum cvs.) is one of the most important cash crops globally. Related varieties and species of cane grasses of the genus Saccharum are also important subsistence crops in the Indo‐Pacific region. Despite the significance of these crops globally and recent advances in genetic characterisation, the histories and geographies of ...

Comparative analysis of rodent lens morphometrics and biomechanical properties

open access: yesFrontiers in Ophthalmology
IntroductionProper ocular lens function requires biomechanical flexibility, which is reduced during aging. As increasing lens size has been shown to correlate with lens biomechanical stiffness in aging, we tested the hypothesis that whole lens size ...

Advances in Understanding the Pathogenesis of Sensorineural Hearing Loss: Treatment Strategies and Implications for Auditory Protection

open access: yesSensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Environmental factors and genetic factors damage the cochlear hair cells, which in turn leads to the death of sensory hair cells (This illustration was generated using Biorender.com). ABSTRACT Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a prevalent multifactorial condition affecting over 1.5 billion people worldwide.

Characterization of an intratracheal aerosol challenge model of Brucella melitensis in guinea pigs.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
B. melitensis is considered the most virulent of the Brucella species, and a need exists for an improved laboratory animal model of infection that mimics natural transmission and disease. Guinea pigs are highly susceptible to infection with Brucella spp.

A model of type 2 diabetes in the guinea pig using sequential diet-induced glucose intolerance and streptozotocin treatment

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2017
Type 2 diabetes is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among noncommunicable diseases, and additional animal models that more closely replicate the pathogenesis of human type 2 diabetes are needed.

Dermatitis in Leukopenic Guinea Pigs

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1963
Recent studies in this laboratory have shown that an acute allergic contact dermatitis reaction can take place in sensitized, severely leukopenic guinea pigs (1, 2, 3). In studies reported here we turn our attention to the histopathological picture accompanying the clinical dermatitis in such leukopenic pigs.

Inner Ear Immunity and Audio‐Vestibular Dysfunction

open access: yesSensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Diagram of the immune response of the inner ear and associated damage. ABSTRACT The inner ear is a critical sensory organ regulated by the immune system to maintain balance and respond to external stimuli. Immune cells like macrophages, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and natural killer cells play important roles in inner ear immunity. Inflammatory mediators,
