Breaking the ice: multiple origins of ice‐binding/antifreeze proteins
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Ice‐binding proteins (IBPs) evolved independently in many organisms during Cenozoic cooling and glaciation. In flounders, α‐helical IBPs evolved from an antiviral protein, while similar IBPs arose independently from different progenitors in three other fish lineages.

A novel rare splice variant of the human voltage‐dependent proton channel hHV1
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Alternative splicing of the human HVCN1 gene produces a rare, very‐long proton channel isoform (hHV1‐vl) containing an additional 47 amino acids at its N terminus. This variant was detected in human tissues, including choroid plexus epithelial cells and lymphomas. Compared with the conventional long isoform (hHV1‐l), hHV1‐vl activates more slowly while

Tear Osmolarity in Ocular Graft-Versus-Host Disease
, 2014 Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate tear osmolarity in patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) with ocular involvement. Methods: In this observational cross-sectional study of 56 patients with ocular cGVHD referred to the ...

Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Non‐medicinal approaches for controlling sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) infestations, such as freshwater (FW) treatments, have been increasingly implemented to support more sustainable parasite control in aquaculture. This study evaluated the efficacy of FW treatment against sea lice under controlled experimental conditions and assessed ...

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of intra‐amniotic administration of combined energy, amino acid, and vitamin sources on embryonic development, post‐hatch growth performance, and intestinal health in broiler chickens. On Day 18 of incubation, 460 fertile Ross 308 eggs were allocated to four groups: non‐injected negative control (NC), saline ...

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Implications of obesity and weight loss (WL) for energy and protein metabolism are not fully understood, particularly in senior dogs. This study evaluated changes in body composition, energy expenditure (EE), protein turnover (PT), and voluntary physical activity (VPA) in senior dogs in maintenance and after 10% and 20% WL.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Proposed model of metabolic convergence on the target of rapamycin (TOR) pathway in Cryphonectria parasitica. Twelve core genes involved in diverse metabolic pathways act as upstream regulators or downstream effectors of TOR kinase. Dysregulation of these genes mimics an inhibited TOR state, leading to restricted hyphal growth and enhanced trehalose ...
