Lung maneuvers of large amplitudes for probing physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Lung maneuvers of small amplitudes, such as the ones performed in oscillometry, are the current gold standard to probe lung mechanics in animals, but they are insensitive to detect baseline physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma. Herein, lung maneuvers of different amplitudes were compared in two mouse models of asthma.

Predation of eggs and incubating females in willow ptarmigan Lagopus l. lagopus

Fauna Norvegica
Nest predation is a major cause of reproductive loss in many ground-nesting birds. During 15 consecutive years the predation of nests and females throughout the incubation season were recorded in a willow ptarmigan Lagopus l.

Small vesicles, big potential: A review of innovative exosome delivery and molecular mechanisms in preclinical myocardial infarction models

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This narrative review discusses animal models of exosome‐based myocardial infarction treatments. Emerging techniques aim to improve exosome stability, targeting, and bioavailability for MI treatment as drug delivery vehicles and regenerative mediators that promote myocardial regeneration. Abstract Exosomes have emerged as promising therapeutic carriers,

Interactions between species introduce spurious associations in microbiome studies

, 2018
Microbiota contribute to many dimensions of host phenotype, including disease. To link specific microbes to specific phenotypes, microbiome-wide association studies compare microbial abundances between two groups of samples.

Broadening the semiaquatic scene: Quantification of long bone microanatomy across pinnipeds

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Investigations of bone microanatomy are commonly used to explore lifestyle strategies in vertebrates. While distinct microanatomical limb bone features have been established for exclusively aquatic and terrestrial lifestyles, identifying clear patterns for the semiaquatic lifestyle remains more challenging.

Patterns of interspecific variation in labial microarchitecture among anthropoid primates and the evolution of the hominin lips

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Comparative histological and semi‐automated image analysis of primate lips: Masson's trichrome‐stained sagittal sections were segmented to quantify the connective tissue, adipose, and muscular components, enabling interspecific comparisons of labial architecture.

Gonadal development in scorpion mud‐turtles, Kinosternon scorpioides, in a controlled environment

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Stage 20 was identified as the critical point for gonadal differentiation in Kinosternon scorpioides, providing key insights into sex determination. These findings enhance conservation strategies by supporting reproductive management and population viability in both in situ and ex situ programs. Abstract Research on gonadal development including sexual

An osteohistological analysis of Triceratops (Ornithischia: Ceratopsidae) cranial ornamentation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ceratopsids are among the most distinctive and well known extinct Cretaceous vertebrates, yet many details regarding the growth and composition of their cranial features are still not fully anatomically described or understood. In particular, striking cranial adornments such as the postorbital horns and parietal‐squamosal frill of Triceratops ...
