Utilizando como fuente de estudio los epigramas de Marcial y las sátiras de Juvenal, se considera el vínculo existente entre el hombre y el perro en la Roma de emperador Domiciano, mediante el análisis de los diferentes aspectos de convivencia que el ser humano establecía con este animal. Finalmente, se llega a una reflexión sobre la calidad de vida de estos animales en su coexistencia con el hombre de aquellos días.Based on the epigrams of Martial and the satires of Juvenal, it is considered the relationship between man and dog in Rome under the rule of the Emperor Domitian, through the analy

Abstract:

Birds in fairytale traditions of different nations are indispensable characters of animal epos. In the fairytales of Oirats of Xinjiang and Kalmyks of Russia there is a wide representation of birds along with other animals. It is commonly known that a lie in all its varieties and forms is one of the essential compositional stems of the animal fairytale. Every character in a fairytale is capable of lying. It is the only and specific way of protection of weaker character from its physically stronger opponent. In the fairy tales about animals birds often surpass animals in wit and wisdom. Birds p

This paper investigates the problem of horse sacrifice in funeral rites using data of Bronze and Early Iron Age sepulchres in Armenia. To begin with, the study highlights the cultic-ritual role of a horse as a mythological creature, sacramental animal, divine attribute, etc. In this regard, the Armenian epos and petroglyphs are discussed. Horse sacrifice in other rites is also reviewed. As horse is the closest-to-human animal for Indo-Europeans, the author refers widely to the known archaeological and ethnographical evidence on the subject not only from Armenia but also from other countries in

Abstract:

AbstractBreeding synchrony is hypothesised to influence the occurrence and frequency of extra-pair fertilisations (EPFs) in birds irrespective of the social mating system. The two proposed hypotheses make opposite predictions. (1) Synchronous breeding leads to a lower frequency of EPFs because males face a trade-off between mate guarding and obtaining additional matings via extra-pair copulations (EPCs) ('guarding constraint' hypothesis). (2) Synchronous breeding promotes EPFs because females are able to compare displaying males simultaneously, which provides them with more reliable cues for e

Abstract For House Sparrows, Passer domesticus, it has been proposed that the size of a male's throat badge correlates with his success in avoiding cuckoldry as well as obtaining extra-pair copulations (EPCs), and that females gain indirect (genetic) benefits from EPCs with large-badged males. Alternatively, female House Sparrows may engage in EPCs as a guard against their social mate's infertility. We used multi-locus DNA fingerprinting to examine paternity and found that among 41 broods and 136 offspring, 20% of the offspring were attributable to extra-pair fertilizations (EPFs). Forty-one p

Abstract Early arrival at breeding sites can influence reproductive success through enhanced access to critical resources such as nest sites or mates. One hypothesis explaining protandry, or male-first arrival at breeding sites, proposes that males arrive earlier to increase their extrapair copulation (EPC) opportunities, which may, in turn, enhance males' reproductive success through extrapair fertilizations (EPFs) (“mate opportunity hypothesis”). Extrapair behavior is unexpected in long-lived birds, in which the male is expected to abandon a brood of uncertain paternity, because his probabil

Absence of a male during the female fertile period may also increase the probability of EPFs.

Abstract:

The viability of a formulation of the fungus Monacrosporium thaumasium associated with ivermectin was evaluated for the biological control of bovine gastrointestinal nematode parasites. Four groups of five calves each were placed in pastures with a stocking rate of 1.6 animal/hectare. In group 1 (control), the calves did not receive any treatment. In group 2, each animal received 20g of pellets of M. thaumasium orally twice a week during a six-month period that began with the onset of the rainy season (October 23, 2000). In group 3, each animal received 20g of pellets of M. thaumasium orally t

Abstract:

AbstractExtra-pair copulations (EPCs) can create or intensify sexual selection and, provided that fertilisation success is related to phenotypic traits, help explain sexual dimorphism in socially monogamous species. Previous experimental manipulations of the ornamental coloration in male bluethroats, Luscinia s. svecica, have shown effects on their social mating success, mate-guarding behaviour, and within-pair- and extra-pair paternity. This study investigates the relationship between male characteristics (reflectance of the blue throat feathers, width of the chestnut breast band, wing length

Abstract:

Due to the lack of animal models and difficulty in obtaining specimens, the study of pathogenesis of moyamoya disease (MMD) almost stagnated. In recent years, endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have attracted more and more attention in vascular diseases due to their important role in neovascularization. With the aid of paradigms and methods in cardiovascular diseases research, people began to explore the role of EPCs in the processing of MMD. In the past decade, studies have shown that abnormalities in cell amounts and functions of EPCs were closely related to the vascular pathological change

Abstract:

Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are implicated in multiple biologic processes such as vascular homeostasis, neovascularization and tissue regeneration, and tumor angiogenesis. A subtype of EPCs is referred to as endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs), which display robust clonal proliferative potential and can form durable and functional blood vessels in animal models. In this review, we provide a brief overview of EPCs’ characteristics, classification and origins, a summary of the progress in preclinical studies with regard to the therapeutic potential of human umbilical cord blood deri

Abstract:

The direct effects of physical activity interventions on energy expenditure are relatively small when placed in the context of total daily energy demands. Hence, the suggestion has been made that exercise produces energetic benefits in other components of the daily energy budget, thus generating a net effect on energy balance much greater than the direct energy cost of the exercise alone. Resting metabolic rate (RMR) is the largest component of the daily energy budget in most human societies and, therefore, any increases in RMR in response to exercise interventions are potentially of great imp

Since forced EPCs have been documented for this species, we first examined which sex controls successful (cloacal contact achieved) copulation. The finding that all successful copulations required female cooperation and crouching suggested that benefits of successful EPCs accrue primarily to females.

In clinical trials as well as in several animal experiments it is evident that physical exercise is a powerful tool to positively influence the development and/or progression of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD).

Since the discovery that endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are present in the circulation and the knowledge that exercise, either as a single exercise bout or an exercise training program, have the potency to mobilize EPCs from the bone marrow, the contribution of th

Abstract For many years, selection for improved beef production centered on heavier weaning weights and more rapid post-weaning gain. More recently, measurement of post-weaning feed intake has facilitated direct improvement in feed efficiency in the feedlot. However, intake on a high concentrate diet is controlled by different biological mechanisms than intake on a high roughage diet. For this reason, the question remains whether an animal that efficiently converts calories from a high-quality concentrate-based ration similar to that of a feedlot diet where the expected progeny differences (EP

Efflux pumps of the resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) superfamily, particularly the AcrAB-TolC, and MexAB-OprM, besides mediating intrinsic and acquired resistance, also intervene in bacterial pathogenicity. Inhibitors of such pumps could restore the activities of antibiotics and curb bacterial virulence. Here, we identify pyrrole-based compounds that boost antibiotic activity in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa by inhibiting their archetype RND transporters. Molecular docking and biophysical studies revealed that the EPIs bind to AcrB. The identified efflux pump inhibitors
