Impact of Leaflet Thickness on Polymeric Valve Scaffold Function and Remodeling: Assessment in a 1‐ and 3‐Month Ovine Stented Pulmonary Valve Replacement Model

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Approaches to the structural design of tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVs) have varied broadly, ranging from material choice to microstructural and macro‐scale functional characteristics. Not only will each variable on this extensive list impact functional and restorative potential after implantation, but most of these variables also have ...

Mussel Spermatozoa Express a Specific Isoform of the Catalytic Subunit of cAMP‐Dependent Protein Kinase

Molecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT cAMP‐dependent protein kinase (PKA) plays a central role in regulating sperm motility in both invertebrates and mammals. The sea mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis provides a valuable model for investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying gamete activation in externally fertilizing organisms.

Selective Motor Stimulation of the Pudendal Nerve Using Multi‐Contact Cuff Electrodes: A Pre‐Clinical Study in Feline and Ovine Models

Neurourology and Urodynamics, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1210-1219, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pudendal nerve stimulation is a promising therapy for urinary incontinence, however stimulation can evoke off‐target activity. We aimed to determine whether multi‐contact cuff electrodes can selectively recruit motor fibers of the pudendal nerve trunk in preclinical feline and ovine models.

Ecology of reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep in Dinosaur National Monument La Ecología de Borrego Cimarron de las Montañas Rocosas Reintroducido en el Monumento Nacional de Dinosaurio

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 223, Issue 1, August 2026.
We synthesized GPS telemetry, genetic, and pathogen data to evaluate metapopulation processes in a reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis canadensis) population in Dinosaur National Monument. We estimated subpopulation‐specific abundances and found 4 small subpopulations with high genetic diversity, partial connectivity, and ...

Cytoarchitecture and myeloarchitecture of the sheep auditory cortex

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 233-246, August 2026.
This article describes the cyto‐ and myeloarchitecture of the sheep auditory cortex. It outlines a six‐layered cortical organization, with variations in cellular types and densities. The potential location of the primary auditory cortex is indicated by parvalbumin immunostaining.

Nutritional Level and Type of Feed on the Reproductive Performance of Ewe and Its Effects on Offspring

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The amount and source of nutrition are important factors that influence an ewe's reproductive ability, but the effects of diet on the reproductive performance of its offspring are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the impact of maternal nutrition (level of nutrition and source) on the reproductive performance of ewes and their female ...

Effects of Anethole on Meiotic Resumption and Oxidative Balance During in Vitro Maturation of Ovine Oocytes

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of anethole addition to the ovine oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) medium on viability and chromatin configuration, intracellular production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), enzymatic activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), as well as the levels of reduced thiols in IVM ...

Proteomic Dynamics of Ovine Allantoic and Amniotic Fluids During Gestation

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Gestational success in ruminants depends on the maintenance of a dynamic maternal–foetal microenvironment, resulting from complex interactions among the conceptus, extraembryonic membranes, maternal tissues, and gestational fluids. This study performed a comparative and longitudinal proteomic characterization of allantoic and amniotic fluids ...
