Abstract Background and Purpose The absence of the protein dystrophin in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) leads to progressive muscle weakness, failing regeneration and deregulation of nitric oxide (NO) signalling. We focused on L‐citrulline, a precursor of L‐arginine, required for NO production in muscle, which is reduced in dystrophic mdx muscle ...

Abstract Understanding the dynamics of multihost pathogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC), requires considering not only host interaction patterns but also variation in infectiousness across species. Network analysis is a useful tool to assess contact structure and disease risk, but it often depends on invasive methods.

We examined the functionality of vertebrate scavenger guilds on a regional and temporal scale using a dataset collected in protected areas in three regions in the Netherlands, characterised by the absence of large carnivores and obligate scavengers. Our results demonstrate that the functionality of scavenger communities is shaped by both regional and ...

Abstract The human‐built environment influences the behavior and survival of many species, but most of these studies have been conducted in urban areas. Yet, anthropogenic development may impact species differently across scales, including at the rural level. We examined whether the built environment in a rural area obstructed visibility and influenced
