Monotreme immune system provides insights into their evolutionary relationships
Monotreme immune system provides insights into their evolutionary relationships. Genes of immunological importance will be cloned and characterised from the short-beaked echidna with the purpose of investigating the immune system in monotremes, gaining ...

Egg-laying mammals monotremes are the oldest surviving mammalian lineage. It only comprises of five extant species including platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) from family Ornithorhynchidae, short-beak echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) and long-beak ...

Isolation of monotreme T-cell receptor α and β chains
Monotremes are an ancient mammalian lineage that last shared a common ancestor with the marsupial and eutherian (placental) mammals about 170 million years ago.

Tactile sensory function in the forearm of the monotreme Tachyglossus aculeatus
Peripheral tactile neural mechanisms in the forepaw of the echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus, from the order Monotremata) were investigated to establish the extent of correspondence or divergence that has emerged over the widely different evolutionary ...

Peptides from the Pouch: Marsupial and Monotreme Cathelicidins
The rise in antimicrobial resistance and paucity of new antimicrobial compounds calls for alternatives to traditional antibiotics. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have emerged as potential candidates.
