Forebrain neuroanatomy of the neonatal and juvenile dolphin (T. truncatus & S. coeruloalba)

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Knowledge of dolphin functional neuroanatomy mostly derives from post-mortem studies and non-invasive approaches (i.e. magnetic resonance imaging), due to limitations in experimentation on cetaceans.

Cetacean Morbillivirus-Associated Pathology: Knowns and Unknowns

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The present minireview deals with the pathology of Cetacean Morbillivirus (CeMV) infection in free-ranging cetaceans. In this respect, while classical CeMV-associated lesions were observed in the lung, brain and lymphoid tissues from striped dolphins ...

Organisation and evolution of the major histocompatibility complex class I genes in cetaceans

iScience
Summary: A quarter of marine mammals are at risk of extinction, with disease and poor habitat quality contributing to population decline. Investigation of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) provides insight into species’ capacity to respond to ...

Amphiatlantic Dolphins’ Prey: Indicators of Speciation, Trophic Competition and Global Warming? A Review

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
A review of the prey of three amphiatlantic dolphin species, Tursiops truncatus, Stenella coeruleoalba and Delphinus delphis, is carried out. The main objective of this work is to review the feeding of these species in the Atlantic in order to assess the

Effect of tissue decomposition on stable isotope signatures of striped dolphins Stenella coeruleoalba and loggerhead sea turtles Caretta caretta

Aquatic Biology, 2013
Marine mammals and turtles are often studied using the carcasses of stranded dead individuals. Since decomposition processes might modify the stable isotope ratios of tissues, the present study tested the effects of decomposition on carbon (Δsup>13C) and

Neurobrucellosis (Brucella ceti) in striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba): Immunohistochemical studies on immune response and neuroinflammation

Neurobrucellosis is a shared condition of cetaceans and humans. However, the pathogenesis and immune response in cetacean neurobrucellosis has not been extensively studied.
