Differences in cynomolgus macaque populations used for infectious disease research

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Cynomolgus macaques, a species of Old World primate native to southeastern and eastern Asia and the island of Mauritius, are one of the most important nonhuman primate models for infectious disease. Research into the population genetics of cynomolgus macaques has found significant differences between macaques native to different areas, particularly ...

Detection of a colonizing, aquatic, non‐indigenous species

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, 2009
ABSTRACTDetecting the presence of rare species has interested ecologists and conservation biologists for many years. A particularly daunting application of this problem pertains to the detection of non‐indigenous species (NIS) as they colonize new ecosystems.

Decoding the Pathophysiology of Autoimmune Diseases—Mechanism, Triggers, and Nanotherapeutics: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review highlights how autoimmune diseases arise from intertwined immunological, genetic, and environmental factors, emphasizing gut microbiota dysbiosis as a pivotal driver. It outlines emerging nanotechnology‐based strategies—such as liposomes, hydrogels, and polymeric nanoparticles—that enhance targeted drug delivery, minimize systemic toxicity,

The Effect of Demineralization on Coal Functional Group Pyrolysis: Rank‐Dependent Dual Mechanisms of Structural Reorganization and Mineral Catalysis

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coal pyrolysis, as a key thermochemical conversion process, is significantly influenced by inherent minerals, yet their role across different coal ranks remains inadequately understood. This study investigates the effect of acid‐washing (demineralization) on the thermal decomposition of six functional groups (aliphatic C–H, aromatic C–H/C=C, C=

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...
