Preimplantation Embryo Development in Mastomys (Praomys coucha) In Vivo and In Vitro.

Journal of Reproduction and Development, 1997
Mastomys (Praomys coucha) is a small murine rodent native in Africa. The present study was undertaken to investigate the developmental time course of mastomys embryos in vivo and the rate of development in vitro. Mastomys embryos developing in vivo exhibited a long 2-cell stage, which lasted from late Day 1 through Day 3.

SEX- AND SPECIES-SPECIFIC GROWTH PATTERNS IN CRYPTIC AFRICAN RODENTS, MASTOMYS NATALENSIS AND M. COUCHA [PDF]

Journal of Mammalogy, 2003
The sibling multimammate mice, Mastomys natalensis and M. coucha, occur throughout southern Africa, exhibiting limited sympatry. We examine body mass and growth characteristics of both species, from birth to 26 weeks of age. Gompertz growth curves were fitted to data for body mass and lengths of head and body, tail, hind foot, and ear.

Dietary Response of Black-Backed Jackals (<i>Lupulella mesomelas</i>) to Contrasted Land Use. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study examines dietary shifts in black‐backed jackals across different land‐use types using DNA metabarcoding. Results reveal that jackal diets vary significantly by landscape and season, with a strong reliance on sheep in livestock areas, selective feeding on greater kudu on game farms, and a broader, more even prey profile in nature reserves ...

Lysosomal glycolipid storage in the renal tubular epithelium in mastomys (Praomys coucha). [PDF]

Histology and histopathology, 1996
The renal proximal tubular epithelium of MCC strain of mastomys (Praomys coucha) exhibited a number of cytoplasmic vacuoles after conventional paraffin-embedding procedures. These vacuoles were strongly PAS-positive in cryostat sections. Ultra-structurally, they were double membrane-bound structures filled with myelin figures and acid phosphatase ...

Mastomys natalensis and Mastomys coucha: identification, habitat preferences and population genetics [PDF]

, 2010
M.Sc. Two species of multimammate mice occur in South Africa, namely Mastomys natalensis and M. coucha. These species, both reservoirs for different and equally important disease pathogens, are morphologically identical with variations described in chromosome number, sperm morphology, pheromones, ultrasound and allozyme and isozyme markers.

Adrenocortical zonation in chamois-coloured mastomys, Praomys coucha [PDF]

Laboratory Animals, 1995
Body and adrenal weights, and histology of the adrenal cortex were examined in the chamois-coloured mastomys ( Praomys coucha) at inbred generations 3 to 10. Body and adrenal weights were consistently larger in males than in females, although the adrenal to body weight ratios tended to be lower before 50 days of age and were clearly higher after ...

Molecular phylogeny and taxonomy of the genus Vernaya (Mammalia: Rodentia: Muridae) with the description of two new species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023
The climbing mouse (genus Vernaya) is one of the least studied small mammals. This manuscript integrates molecular and morphological approaches to study the phylogeny and taxonomy of the genus. They described two new species and recognized Vernaya foramena as a valid species.

Spatial tissue proteomics reveals distinct landscapes of heterogeneity in cutaneous papillomavirus‐induced keratinocyte carcinomas

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 95, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Infection with certain cutaneous human papillomaviruses (HPV), in conjunction with chronic ultraviolet (UV) exposure, are the major cofactors of non‐melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), the most frequent cancer type worldwide. Cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) as well as tumors in general represent three‐dimensional entities determined by both

The interplay of UV and cutaneous papillomavirus infection in skin cancer development. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2017
Cutaneous human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are considered as cofactors for non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) development, especially in association with UVB.
