DOI: 10.1002/cne.24661
Abstract: At mammalian neuromuscular junctions (NMJs), prolonged inactivity leads to muscle denervation and atrophy. By contrast, amphibian NMJs do not show such degeneration even though they can remain in a state of drought‐imposed dormancy (hibernation) for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mambio.2019.03.011
Abstract: Bats are parasitized by a wide variety of ectoparasite groups, including mites and ticks (Acari). In temperate regions, infestation patterns are regulated by the host reproductive cycle, which results in parasite reproduction peaking during bat… read more here.

The Influence of the Reduction in Clay Sediments in the Level of Metals Bioavailability—An Investigation in Liujiang River Basin after Wet Season
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health"
DOI: 10.3390/ijerph192214988
Abstract: The seasonal elevation of metals’ bioavailability can aggravate the threat of metal contamination in the aquatic environment. Nevertheless, their regulations have rarely been studied, particularly the connections between metals’ transformation and environmental variations. Therefore, the… read more here.
