Development, validation, and preliminary phenotypic characterization of a Col6a3 knockout mouse model targeting exon 3

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Deleting Col6a3 exon 3 by CRISPR in mice results in centralized nuclei consistent with a myopathy phenotype mimicking collagen VI‐associated human disease Abstract Background Most mutations in the COL6A3 gene lead to collagen VI‐related myopathies. This is due to a reduced expression or mislocalization of the COL6A3 protein.

Biallelic Variants in the DARS2 Gene as a Novel Cause of Axonal Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Charcot–Marie–Tooth (CMT) disease is a heterogeneous group of genetic neuropathies, with >90 genes identified. Several aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases have been linked to CMT. DARS2, encoding the mitochondrial aspartyl‐tRNA synthetase, has been typically associated with leukoencephalopathy with brainstem and spinal cord involvement and lactate ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Lagomorph cranial biomechanics and the functional significance of the unique fenestrated rostrum of leporids

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The crania of leporid lagomorphs are uniquely fenestrated, including the posterior cranial bones and the lateral portion of the maxilla. The functional significance of the highly fenestrated rostrum has received considerably little attention, despite being absent in other mammalian herbivores with a long rostrum.
