A novel pancreatic cancer model originated from transformation of acinar cells in adult tree shrew, a primate-like animal

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2019
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal common cancers. The cell of origin of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has been controversial, and recent evidence suggested acinar cells as the most probable candidate.

Diagnosis of a Primary Pleomorphic Liposarcoma in a Tree Shrew(Tupaia belangeri subsp. yaoshanensis)

open access: yesShiyan dongwu yu bijiao yixue, 2023
A large spontaneous mass on the dorsal abdomen near the hip joint was found in an aged female Tupaia belangeri subsp. yaoshanensis after 5 years of routine feeding.

Inference of Markovian Properties of Molecular Sequences from NGS Data and Applications to Comparative Genomics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies generate large amounts of short read data for many different organisms. The fact that NGS reads are generally short makes it challenging to assemble the reads and reconstruct the original genome sequence. For

Molecular mechanism of the tree shrew's insensitivity to spiciness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2018
Spicy foods elicit a pungent or hot and painful sensation that repels almost all mammals. Here, we observe that the tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri chinensis), which possesses a close relationship with primates and can directly and actively consume spicy ...

New systematic insights about plio-pleistocene moles from poland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The generic attribution of the Plio-Pleistocene Polish moles ?Neurotrichus polonicus and ?Neurotrichus skoczeni has been questioned several times in the past.

Neurochemical Characterization of the Tree Shrew Dorsal Striatum [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2011
The striatum is a major component of the basal ganglia and is associated with motor and cognitive functions. Striatal pathologies have been linked to several disorders, including Huntington's, Tourette's syndrome, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and schizophrenia.

Characterization of excitatory synaptic transmission in the anterior cingulate cortex of adult tree shrew

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2017
The tree shrew, as a primate-like animal model, has been used for studying high brain functions such as social emotion and spatial learning memory. However, little is known about the excitatory synaptic transmission in cortical brain areas of the tree ...

A Composite Genome Approach to Identify Phylogenetically Informative Data from Next-Generation Sequencing

open access: yes, 2014
We have developed a novel method to rapidly obtain homologous genomic data for phylogenetics directly from next-generation sequencing reads without the use of a reference genome.

Mammal endemism In Italy: A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Although there are various checklists of Italian mammals, there is not yet a synthesis of those mammals that are endemic to Italy. Therefore, we provide for the first time a detailed review on Italian mammal endemic species including endemic taxa ...
