A non-traditional model of the metabolic syndrome: the adaptive significance of insulin resistance in fasting-adapted seals

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
Insulin resistance in modern society is perceived as a pathological consequence of excess energy consumption and reduced physical activity. Its presence in relation to the development of cardiovascular risk factors has been termed the metabolic syndrome,

Osmoregulation in Marine Mammals [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2001
SUMMARY Osmoregulation in marine mammals has been investigated for over a century; however, a review of recent advances in our understanding of water and electrolyte balance and of renal function in marine mammals is warranted. The following topics are discussed: (i) kidney structure and urine concentrating ability, (ii) sources of water,

Identifying predictors of species diversity to guide designation of marine protected areas

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2022
Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are a widely‐used tool for conserving biodiversity. Features that support marine mammal foraging have been suggested as important components to include in MPAs, but research is needed to understand the relationship between ...

Molecular Basis for Activation to Inhibition Switching in Kv7.2 Channel Modulators

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The paper describes the serendipitous discovery of chemical manipulation allowing the activator‐to‐inhibitor switching in Kv7.2 channel modulators. The molecular determinants driving this switch have been rationalized by multidisciplinary investigation encompassing synthetic and analytical chemistry, in silico methods, cryo‐EM analysis ...
