High‐Altitude Adaptation of Frogs (Case Study: Nanorana parkeri): From Physiological Phenotypes to AltitudeOmics

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

Developments in nitrous oxide capture technologies: bridging current research to clinical applications

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Many inhaled anaesthetic agents are greenhouse gases. Capture technologies have been developed to prevent environmental emissions of volatile agents, but no such devices exist for nitrous oxide. Further to this, the unique societal position of the use of nitrous oxide for patients in labour means it cannot readily be substituted ...

Physiological Mechanisms and Life History Trade‐Offs in Salmonids Shape In‐Tissue Correlations of an Essential Micronutrient

Ecology and Evolution
The lack of a fitness‐based theory of micronutrient allocation to specific tissues hinders understanding of the ultimate causes of mass juvenile mortality due to thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency, which is an emerging threat to marine and coastal ...

Absorption of thiamine and nicotinic acid in the rat intestine during fasting and immobilization stress [PDF]

By perfusion of isolated sections of intestine with a solution containing thiamine at a concentration of 3.1 micromole, it was established that thiamine absorption in animals fasted for 72 hours decreased by 28 percent, whereas absorption increased by 12
