Wolves and humans both shape patterns of deer browsing in a temperate forest ecosystem of Central Europe

Ecography, EarlyView.
Predator–prey interactions can trigger behavioural responses in ungulates, influencing their space‐use and foraging behaviour and, in turn, indirectly affecting browsing pressure. Changes in browsing pressure can affect plant recruitment and species composition, shaping forest regeneration through predator‐mediated trophic cascades.

Sequencing and cardiac expression of Apelin in Sus Scrofa☆

Pharmacological Research, 2009
In humans, the Apelin gene is located on chromosome Xq25-26.1 and it encodes a 77-aminoacid prepropeptide. Considerable sequence homology exists across different mammalian species. Apelin is emerging as an important regulator of cardiovascular homeostasis but, at present, few data from humans are available and further studies are necessary to better ...

Canine Distemper Virus Research in China and Future Directions for Conservation 中国犬瘟热病毒研究现状与保护策略展望

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Canine distemper is a highly contagious, severe disease caused by the canine distemper virus (CDV). With a worldwide distribution and ever‐expanding list of susceptible hosts, CDV poses a growing risk for many threatened wildlife species, both in captivity and their native habitats. As a megadiverse country, China is home to myriad endemic and

Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.
