Abstract: Hypothesis: Hibernator white adipose tissue will exhibit season-dependent remodeling of metabolic pathways. Methods: Thirteen-lined ground squirrels were captured near Lincoln, Nebraska, and housed in University of Nebraska-Lincoln veterinary facilities. Seasonal adjustments in environmental chamber lighting… read more here.

Abstract: Thirteen-lined ground squirrels (TLGS) are obligate hibernators that cycle between torpor (low metabolic rate and body temperature) and interbout euthermia (IBE; typical euthermic body temperature and metabolism) from late autumn to spring. Many physiological changes… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT We discovered a previously undescribed orbital lipid depot in the thirteen-lined ground squirrel during the first ever magnetic resonance image (MRI) of this common experimental model of mammalian hibernation. In animals housed at constant… read more here.
