A Novel Method for Culturing Telencephalic Neurons in Axolotls
Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 533, Issue 6, June 2025.A protocol for primary neuron culture from axolotl telencephalon was developed. Spontaneous and axotomy‐induced calcium transients showed excitable cells and neuronal and glial characterization was performed with immunocytochemistry. ABSTRACT The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), a neotenic salamander with remarkable regenerative capabilities, serves as a

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2025.Abstract The body size of aquatic vertebrates is declining across populations and ecosystems worldwide owing to warmer water temperature and changing streamflow. In freshwaters, the effects of stream network position and density‐dependent factors on body size are less understood.

Effects of Soldier-Derived Terpenes on Soldier Caste Differentiation in the Termite (Reticulitermes flavipes) [PDF]
, 2009 Primer pheromones play key roles in regulating division of labor, which is one of the most fundamental and defining aspects of insect sociality. Primer pheromones are chemical messengers that transmit hormone-like messages among colony members; in ...
