Abstract Background Activation of complement protein C3 generally enhances antibody responses and C3‐null mice have decreased antibody‐based immunity. Mener et al. have reported a paradoxical suppressor function for C3 in alloimmunization to transfused RBCs as alloantibodies are increased in C3‐null mice.

ABSTRACT Paludomidae is a diverse family of limnic gastropods in the Cerithioidea, with a distribution range including most of tropical sub‐Saharan Africa, the Nile Valley, Madagascar, the Seychelles, as well as South and Southeast Asia. Its systematics and taxonomy are currently in a state of confusion, with Thailand being inhabited by probably two ...

Mapping the variability of in vivo rat uterine electrical properties throughout the oestrous cycle
Abstract After reaching sexual maturity, uterine function is driven by cyclical variations in hormone levels. The electrical and mechanical activity in the uterus varies during the menstrual cycle, contributing to essential functions such as sperm transport and shedding the menstrual lining.

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${

Microbial Contributions to Primate Reproduction
ABSTRACT Reproduction is a complex process, and microbes play a far greater role than previously imagined. This review explores the ways that microbiomes influence the rich tapestry of reproductive processes and outcomes within the primate lineage, including pre‐copulatory and post‐copulatory mechanisms.

Generation of Mice Harboring Bicc1 Conditional Null Alleles
ABSTRACT Bicaudal C1 (Bicc1) encodes an RNA‐binding protein critical for many organ development and epithelial tissue homeostasis. Bicc1 null mutations have been shown to lead to the development of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and death at an early prenatal stage.

Role of Acid‐Sensing Ion Channels 1a in the Regulation of Obesity and the Gut Microbiota
ABSTRACT Objective Acid‐sensing ion channels are proton‐activated ion channels predominantly found in the nervous system. They are well known to affect metabolic and neurological health, yet their role in obesity and gut physiology remains unclear. This study investigates how systemic deletion of Asic1a influences obesity, metabolic, and gut‐based ...
