Abstract Many Arctic fishes experience prolonged periods of extreme cold and large thermal variation over both rapid and seasonal time scales which challenge critical physiological functions. In the central Canadian Arctic, we caught wild adult lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) acclimatized to winter and summer temperatures to determine the extent to ...

Abstract Confocal microscopes increase the resolution of images by rejecting unwanted data from the out of focus regions of the specimen. This incurs a penalty in the recorded signal to noise ratio that may be partially ameliorated by inputting additional information during image processing.

Abstract Aim Amiodarone increases the risk of thyroid dysfunction, but the prognostic significance of this complication in patients with heart failure (HF) is uncertain. This study investigates the association between amiodarone‐related thyroid dysfunction and risk of HF hospitalization or death in a nationwide cohort.

A graphical abstract recapping the different sources of dental, periodontal, and other oral‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and their regenerative mechanisms and potentials. The review's article findings bridge fundamental biological science with translational advances, highlighting the significance of MSCs in craniofacial regenerative ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

The efficacy and physiological bases of small muscle mass exercise in health and disease
Abstract The conventional approach to aerobic exercise prescription involves large muscle mass exercise and the manipulation of variables such as training intensity, duration and frequency to promote desired adaptations. However, during whole‐body exercise, central limitations (i.e., neural, pulmonary and/or cardiac) constrain exercise tolerance and ...

Cerebrovascular regulation during heat stress
Abstract Given that the brain is a highly metabolic organ and is enclosed by the skull, effective regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), not only for oxygen and nutrients supply but also as a means of convective heat exchange, is critical for preventing excessive elevations in brain temperature.

Abstract Studies of small muscle mass exercise (SMME) have revealed that the peripheral O2 transport–utilization cascade is a dynamically regulated system in which perfusive and diffusive components can be selectively amplified, redistributed and mechanically limited depending on contraction pattern, recruitment strategy and intramuscular pressure ...

The isolated working guinea pig heart: A functional and electrophysiological characterisation
Abstract Small animal isolated perfused hearts have been used for over 150 years for the study of cardiac physiology and pharmacology. The guinea pig heart represents the smallest mammalian heart that replicates key features of the human heart – for example, with respect to cardiac action potential duration, ion channel expression, excitation ...
