A reduced adaptation to cold is a prominent feature in aged mammals, including humans. The accelerated senescence-prone strain of mice (SAMP) has been studied as an animal model for several age-associated disorders and in the acceleration of senescence. Recent studies revealed that SAMP strains ...
Genes under positive selection were enriched in pathways related to immunity, metabolic regulation, structural adaptation, cardiovascular performance, and neuromodulatory traits. Several genes associated with the Southeast Asian ‘negrito-like’ phenotype were also under positive selection. Balancing selection ...

Several stressors in the environment such as extreme pH, temperature, osmolarity, UV light, and nutrient competition selected traits that help microbes to also overcome challenging conditions within the host (Lange et al. 2023, Huang et al. 2024). This process, known as the environmental ...

Acclimatization allows humans to: a. live without air. b. evolve new traits that can be passed on to offspring. c. make long-lasting changes in an individual's physiology. d. live more comfortably in a habitat where they have lived for many years. ...
It was therefore inevitable that the genetic code prescribing social behavior of modern humans is a chimera. One part prescribes traits that favor success of individuals within the group. The other part prescribes the traits that favor group success in competition with other groups. –Edward O. ...
