Therapeutic Effect of Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) Root Extract on Experimental Cutaneous Leishmaniosis in a BALB/c Mouse Model. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) root extract shows potential in treating cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major. In a BALB/c mouse model, treatment significantly reduced wound size and parasite load while enhancing inflammatory markers IL‐1 and IL‐6. These results highlight barberry's therapeutic promise against leishmaniasis.

Translocation and deterrence as tools for conservation and management of Columbian ground squirrels (Urocitellus columbianus) in a national park

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.
Our study evaluates two non‐lethal methods for managing Columbian ground squirrels in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. We demonstrate that translocated squirrels exhibited lower survival than controls and that a deterrence methodology that includes blocking burrows may be an appropriate alternative, especially when combined with other tools ...

Ontogeny of the malleus in Mesocricetus auratus (Mammalia, Rodentia): Systematic and functional implications for the muroid middle ear

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 989-1004, April 2026.
Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...
