Variability of jaw muscles in Tunisian street dogs and adaptation to skull shape
Abstract The impact of artificial selection on the masticatory apparatus of dogs has been poorly studied, and comparative data with dogs subjected to more natural constraints are lacking. This study explores the jaw musculature of Tunisian street dogs, which are largely free from the influence of breed‐specific selection.

Mutations in the Gjb2 gene, which encodes a gap junction protein connexin26 (Cx26), are the most prevalent form of hereditary deafness in humans and represent about half of non-syndromic congenital deafness cases in many ethnic populations.

SK2 channels are required for function and long-term survival of efferent synapses on mammalian outer hair cells [PDF]
Cochlear hair cells use SK2 currents to shape responses to cholinergic efferent feedback from the brain. Using SK2-/- mice, we demonstrate that, in addition to their previously defined role in modulating hair cell membrane potentials, SK2 channels are ...

ABSTRACT Background Gamma‐glutamyltransferase (GGT) is a membrane‐bound enzyme involved in glutathione metabolism and oxidative stress regulation. Although it is traditionally viewed as a liver function marker, emerging evidence suggests that its aberrant expression is closely associated with tumorigenesis, progression, and therapeutic resistance ...

IL-1α and TNF-α Down-Regulate CRH Receptor-2 mRNA Expression in the Mouse Heart [PDF]
Two receptors (CRH receptor type 1 and CRH receptor type 2) have been identified for the stress-induced neuropeptide, CRH and related peptides, urocortin, and urocortin II.

This study is the first to present the detailed cellular organization and three‐dimensional (3D) tonotopic arrangement of the human organ of Corti, spiral ganglion, and central modiolus using synchrotron radiation phase‐contrast imaging (SR‐PCI) with matched histological cross‐sections.

On the origins of the compressive cochlear nonlinearity [PDF]
Various simple mathematical models of the dynamics of the organ of Corti in the mammalian cochlea are analysed. The models are assessed against their ability to explain the compressive nonlinear response of the basilar membrane.

The Development of a Single Frequency Place in the Mammalian Cochlea: The Cochlear Resonance in the Mustached Bat Pteronotus parnellii [PDF]
Cochlear microphonic potentials (CMs) were recorded from the sharply tuned, strongly resonant auditory foveae of 1- to 5-week-old mustached bats that were anesthetized with Rompun and Ketavet.

Sorbic acid and epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) are used for the first time to design and produce new green soybean oil‐based resins (SESO‐based resins). SESO‐based resins show superior biobased content and similar thermomechanical properties to those prepared by acrylated ESO.
