Defining AV2‐1 as a novel pharmacological probe to target human and rodent TRPV2
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is a non‐selective cation channel implicated in immune cell functions. However, progress in understanding TRPV2 has been limited by a lack of potent and selective pharmacological tools, particularly those targeting the human variant. We aimed to identify and characterise a

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Monitoring wildlife health is essential for conservation and management, wildlife and livestock welfare, and public health in a One Health framework. Yet, wildlife health monitoring often requires long‐term fieldwork and intensive sampling, which can be costly or logistically challenging, especially for remote, rare, or elusive populations. To

Comprehension of functional support by enculturated chimpanzees Pan troglodytes
Current Zoology, 2011 Studies of causal understanding of tool relationships in captive chimpanzees have yielded disparate findings, particularly those reported by Povinelli & colleagues (2000) for tool tasks by laboratory chimpanzees.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Temperature is an important factor to determine the activity of insects. We tested the performance of the non‐native larval parasitoid Leptopilina japonica (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) under realistic climatic conditions to improve understanding about its ongoing spread and seasonal abundance.

Co-ordination of actions, visual perception, and inhibition in human and non-human primate development [PDF]
, 2000 The originality of Langer's approach to cognitive development (Langer, 1980, 1986) lies in the study of the pragmatic components (actions, object manipulations) of protologicomathematical and protophysical cognition before the age of 2.

Ethology, EarlyView.A captive chimpanzee named Toon performed an unusual long‐lasting drumming session using different implements (e.g., limbs and tools) and techniques (e.g., drumstick‐on‐drum). He drummed faster with limbs than with tools and during the climax than the introduction of his pant‐hoot displays.

“I teach her at home”: Home learning environments amid resource constraints
Family Relations, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective This study examined how mothers with low incomes think about and enact investments of time and money for their infants and toddlers. Background Infancy and toddlerhood are pivotal years for development. Home learning environments in these earliest years can also set the stage for later home learning environments.

Iconic and non-iconic stages in number development : the role of language [PDF]
, 2010 Is language the key to number? This article argues that the human language faculty provides the cognitive equipment that enables humans to develop a systematic number concept.

Human IDO2 exhibits unique binding affinities distinct to those of human IDO1
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Although indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase 2 (IDO2) is highly homologous to IDO1, it displays markedly lower catalytic activity. We found that IDO2 binds L‐tryptophan (L‐Trp) in a flipped orientation stabilized by the IDO2‐specific residue His143. Replacement of His143 with the IDO1‐equivalent tyrosine restored an IDO1‐like binding mode and increased ...

Hierarchical social modularity in gorillas
, 2019 Modern human societies show hierarchical social modularity (HSM) in which lower-order social units like nuclear families are nested inside increasingly larger units.
