Prevalence and Grade of Patellar Luxation in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Attending Primary‐Care Veterinary Practices in Australia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Patella luxation was prevalent in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels attending Australian veterinary practices. Dogs which were younger, neutered, above the breed standard weight, and with ruby‐coloured coats were at increased risk, while dogs with bilateral luxation were more likely to be diagnosed with higher grade luxation .

Environmental correlates of spatio‐temporal patterns of colour variation in a bird of prey: The common buzzard (Buteo buteo)

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 3, Page 985-1001, July 2026.
High colour variability in animals has been associated with adaptability to environmental change. Establishing how such variability is distributed in time and space, and identifying environmental correlates, can help understand the processes driving it.

Microbial Metabolite‐Stimulated Bitter Taste Receptor T2R14 Signaling Is Modulated by CFTR Interactions

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) play an important role in physiological and cellular responses. Bitter tasting chemicals and microbial metabolites can bind to T2R14, which enables interactions between T2R14 and specific intracellular domains of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel.

Analysis of Genetic Basis of the Red Coat Colour of Crossbred of Duroc and Ding'an Pig

Guangdong nongye kexue
【Objective】The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) plays a critical role in mammalian pigmentation and coat color formation. Different MC1R alleles are associated with various coat color patterns in pigs.

Pigmentary Markers in Danes--Associations with Quantitative Skin Colour, Nevi Count, Familial Atypical Multiple-Mole, and Melanoma Syndrome.

PLoS ONE, 2016
To investigate whether pigmentation genes involved in the melanogenic pathway (melanogenesis) contributed to melanoma predisposition, we compared pigmentary genetics with quantitative skin pigmentation measurements, the number of atypical nevi, the total

TET2 orchestrates YAP signaling to potentiate targetable vulnerability in hepatocellular carcinoma

Cell Death and Disease
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of global cancer-associated mortality. Although various therapies have substantially ameliorated clinical outcome, patients invariably suffer from cancer relapse, highlighting the need for more optimized ...

The influence of melanocortin-1 receptor gene polymorphisms on the clinical-biological tumor profile and prognosis in patients with cutaneous melanoma

Сибирский онкологический журнал
Introduction. The melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) gene is one of the key factors in susceptibility to cutaneous melanoma (CM). The influence of specific germline MC1R polymorphisms on disease aggressiveness, tumor morphology, and patient survival has not ...

Testing whether macroevolution follows microevolution: Are colour differences among swans (Cygnus) attributable to variation at the MC1R locus?

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background The MC1R (melanocortin-1 receptor) locus underlies intraspecific variation in melanin-based dark plumage coloration in several unrelated birds with plumage polymorphisms.
