The primary structures of pancreatic ribonucleases from African porcupine and casiragua, two hystricomorph rodent species.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology, 1982
The amino acid sequences of the pancreatic ribonucleases from African porcupine (Hystrix cristata) and casiragua (Proechimys guairae, a caviomorph rodent species related to the coypu) were determined. The ribonucleases were isolated form minces of pancreatic tissue which had been used for the extraction of the insulins.

Head myology of wild cavies (Caviidae, Caviomorpha) and functional implications of hystricomorphous and hystricognathous configurations

Journal of Mammalian Evolution, 2023
Cavies are one of the most-specialized grinding rodents, with folivorous and grass-based diets. Antecedents on head myology are focused mainly on domestic guinea pig. Here, we analyze three specimens of wild caviines (two of Cavia aperea and one of Galea leucoblephara), describing, illustrating, mapping, and weighing facial and masticatory muscles ...

Light/darkness modulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis in the plains vizcacha, Lagostomus maximus, a seasonal breeding species.

General and Comparative Endocrinology
Photoperiod is the main environmental signal that affects animal behavior and reproduction. Light stimulus is traduced by a neural pathway that modulates pineal gland melatonin release, which synchronizes physiologic functions with day duration, highly ...
