Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.We use experimental evolution to test the effects of demographic and evolutionary rescue in populations of Tribolium castaneum previously adapted to high temperature and kept at small population sizes. We find no evidence of rescue in these populations and discuss the results in the context of conservation intervention.

The origin, connectivity, and individual specialization of island wolves after deer extirpation
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2024.We applied DNA metabarcoding and SNP genotyping to quantify variation in marine foraging behavior within wolf packs, among sexes, and individuals using 957 scats collected from an island and the adjacent mainland from 2016 to 2022. Island wolves consistently consumed sea otters while mainland wolves fed mainly on ungulates and voles with more variation

Ecological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 1, February 2024.Abstract Species turnover with elevation is a widespread phenomenon and provides valuable information on why and how ecological communities might reorganize as the climate warms. It is commonly assumed that species interactions are more likely to set warm range limits, while physiological tolerances determine cold range limits.

Nervous system‐related tropism of SARS‐CoV‐2 and autoimmunity in COVID‐19 infection
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 54, Issue 1, January 2024.This review summarizes the current knowledge regarding neurotropism and emerging immune responses in SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. There are direct and indirect effects on the nervous system by SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. Presently, vaccination against SARS‐CoV‐2 is the most effective way of preventing SARS‐CoV‐2 infection of the nervous system. Abstract The effects

The effects of cocaine self-administration on dendritic spine density in the rat hippocampus are dependent on genetic background [PDF]
, 2015 Chronic exposure to cocaine induces modifications to neurons in the brain regions involved in addiction. Hence, we evaluated cocaine-induced changes in the hippocampal CA1 field in Fischer 344 (F344) and Lewis (LEW) rats, 2 strains that have been widely ...

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.The Ebolavirus genus contains several of the deadliest zoonotic viruses known. One of these, Bundibugyo virus (BDBV), has been the causative agent of two outbreaks of human disease that have resulted in 211 known cases with a case fatality rate of 33.6%.

Positional identification of variants of Adamts16 linked to inherited hypertension [PDF]
, 2017 A previously reported blood pressure (BP) quantitative trait locus on rat Chromosome 1 was isolated in a short congenic segment spanning 804.6 kb. The 804.6 kb region contained only two genes, LOC306664 and LOC306665.

Platelet-activating factor and hyperacute rejection: The effect of a platelet-activating factor antagonist, sri 63-441, on rejection of xenografts and allografts in sensitized hosts [PDF]
, 1990 The pathogenesis of hyperacute transplantation reactions includes the activation of a cascade of nonspecific inflammatory reactions that precipitates the destruction of the target organ.
