Striking olfactory receptor gene repertoire expansion in Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) [PDF]
iScienceSummary: Chemoreception through olfaction regulates essential fish behaviors, including reproduction. Fish olfactory receptor repertoire comprises four multigene families (olfactory receptors class C (OlfC), odorant receptor (OR), olfactory receptors ...

Expression of Olfactory Sense-Related Genes in Chicken Olfactory Epithelium [PDF]
The Journal of Poultry ScienceOlfaction plays a key role in the selection and acquisition of feed as well as its vision and gustation. Although olfactory behavior in chickens is speculated to depend on olfactory receptors, trace-amine-associated receptors (TAARs), and its signaling ...

Machine learning-based model to predict severe acute kidney injury after total aortic arch replacement for acute type A aortic dissection [PDF]
HeliyonBackground: Severe acute kidney injury (AKI) after total aortic arch replacement (TAAR) is related to adverse outcomes in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). However, the early prediction of severe AKI remains a challenge.
