Hypoxia blunts angiogenic signaling and upregulates the antioxidant system in elephant seal endothelial cells

This study compares the hypoxic response of elephant seal and human endothelial cells, finding seal cells dampen angiogenic signaling, enhance antioxidant defenses, and maintain mitochondrial function.

Cryo-EM structures of Kv1.2 potassium channels, conducting and non-conducting

The paper presents cryo-EM structures of Kv1.2 potassium channels in different states, revealing new insights into selectivity filter stability and toxin block mechanisms.

Effects of Repeat Test Exposure on Gait Parameters in Naive Lewis Rats

This study shows repeated gait testing in rats affects gait parameters, with exposure being a major factor over age and weight.

Assessing changes in global fire regimes

This study assesses changes in global fire regimes using expert opinions, finding increased fire regime change rates and future intensification under higher emission scenarios.

In vivo lentiviral vector gene therapy to cure hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 and prevent development of precancerous and cancerous lesions

This study cures hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 in pigs using in vivo lentiviral gene therapy, preventing liver fibrosis and tumorigenic pathways.

Learning and motor inhibitory control in crows and domestic chickens

This study compares motor inhibitory control and reversal learning between crows and chickens, finding crows outperform chickens in motor control but similar performance in learning flexibility.

In Situ Processing and Efficient Environmental Detection (iSPEED) of pests and pathogens of trees using point-of-use real-time pcr

The paper develops a field-friendly DNA testing method for detecting tree pests and pathogens using real-time PCR, demonstrating its effectiveness and stability in environmental conditions.

Inspiratory muscle training in young, race-fit Thoroughbred racehorses during a period of detraining

This study shows that inspiratory muscle training (IMT) maintains and improves inspiratory muscle strength in racehorses during detraining, unlike a control group.
