Mammal coloration as a social signal
Journal of Zoology, Volume 323, Issue 2, Page 114-128, June 2024.Otherwise apparently cryptic mammals often have conspicuous patches of colour on distal regions of their body, possibly for signalling. To investigate ideas about communication within sociosexual contexts, we used a comparative dataset for 2726 terrestrial mammals to match the coloration and patterning of distal body areas (head, chest, rump, and tail)

Symphyseal morphology and jaw muscle recruitment levels during mastication in musteloid carnivorans
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 341, Issue 2, Page 163-171, March 1, 2024.Abstract In studies of mammalian mastication, a possible relationship has been proposed between bilateral recruitment of jaw adductor muscle force during unilateral chewing and the degree of fusion of the mandibular symphysis. Specifically, species that have unfused, mobile mandibular symphyses tend to utilize lower levels of jaw adductor force on the ...

Immunological Reviews, Volume 322, Issue 1, Page 259-282, March 2024.Summary From studies of individual families to global collaborative efforts, the NLRP3 inflammasome is now recognized to be a key regulator of innate immunity. Activated by a panoply of pathogen‐associated and endogenous triggers, NLRP3 serves as an intracellular sensor that drives carefully coordinated assembly of the inflammasome, and downstream ...

Evolution and biogeography of mammals [PDF]
, 2010 U ovom radu sam pisala o biogeografiji i o novim saznanjima na području evolucije sisavaca. Znanstvenici su dali mnoge odgovore ali je ostalo još dosta bitnih i neriješenih pitanja vezanih za njihovu evoluciju.
