Zoo-FISH in the European mole (Talpa europaea) detects all ancestral Boreo-Eutherian human homologous chromosome associations [PDF]
Zoo-FISH with human whole-chromosome paint probes delineated syntenic association of human homologous chromosome segments 3-21, 14-15, 16-19, 4-8, 7-16 and 12-22 (twice) in the European mole (Talpa europaea, Talpidae, Eulipotyphla, Mammalia).

Investigating the Potential Consequences of Woodland Creation for British Mammal Populations
We simulated the conversion of suitable areas in the UK to woodland, according to the current and target woodland creation rates, and assessed how this would affect habitat availability and potential population sizes of British mammals. We predicted that most assessed mammals would benefit or be unaffected by planned woodland creation, but some ...

Metabolic Rate of Tree-Shrews (Urogale everetti)
SummaryThe oxygen consumption of 32 Philippine tree-shrews was 0.87 ± 0.02 ec/g body wt/hr (mean and standard error). Expressed as Standard Metabolic Rate, this represented 29.7 ± 0.8 Cal/sq m body surface/hr, a value corresponding to that of laboratory rats of comparable weight and maturity. No sex difference was observed.

Ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) from Panax ginseng shows multifunctional health effects. Although oral bioavailability is low and blood–brain barrier (BBB) penetration is limited, delivery systems such as liposomes and nanoparticles may improve exposure. Rg1 reduces inflammation/oxidative stress by inhibiting nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) signaling and reactive ...

Distinct Frequency Specialization for Detecting Dark Transients in Humans and Tree Shrews
Summary: Despite well-known privileged perception of dark over light stimuli, it is unknown to what extent this dark dominance is maintained when visual transients occur in rapid succession, for example, during perception of moving stimuli.

Our findings regarding prey of breeding Cooper's Hawks in British Columbia and Wisconsin expand knowledge of their food habits and support the premise that seasonal agility of prey influences body size of nesting males. We deem it untenable to assume greater production of young at urban vs. rural nests based on proportion of avian prey use.

Tree shrews as a new animal model for systemic sclerosis research
ObjectiveSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic systemic disease characterized by immune dysregulation and fibrosis for which there is no effective treatment. Animal models are crucial for advancing SSc research. Tree shrews are genetically, anatomically,
