Blood clotting provides an example of the role of the extracellular matrix in cell communication. When the cells lining a blood vessel are damaged, they display a protein receptor called tissue factor. When tissue factor binds with another factor in the extracellular matrix, it causes platelets to...

Man vs Beast If the human race could learn one lesson from the last 4.5 billion years, it should be: Never mess with Mother Nature. And for good reason. Mother Nature has packed the planet with deadly animals. Sometimes they come equipped with sharp teeth, long claws, and flexing coils–...
Violence Versus Aggression – Operational Definitions Animal violence has been studied through several manipulations (described later) using the following behavioral measures: attack latencies; frequency, intensity and duration of attack bouts; and frequency of attack bites. Violence in animals has been des...
Isolates were classified as non-clinical (isolated from the nasal passage) n=62, systemic (disease-causing and isolated from the brain, blood or joints) n=52 or respiratory (disease-causing and isolated from the lungs) n=39. Boxes show the medians and upper and lower quartiles; whiskers ...

experiments were also conducted on animals in Nazi Germany despite the commonly held position that they were not[16–20]. The following is from a document presented at the Doctor’s Trial (USA v. Karl Brandt,et al.) at Nuremberg and is titled “The Blood Picture of the White Mouse in ...
(GVHD), a screening method for a preventing and treating agent of the GVHD by using such the GVHD model animal, a receptor protein PIR-B and its gene recognizing a MHC class I molecule, and a preventing and treating agent of the GVHD by using a human homolog of the PIR-B as an ...
The reliance on a solitary linear reference genome has imposed a significant constraint on our comprehensive understanding of genetic variation in animals. This constraint is particularly pronounced for non-reference sequences (NRSs), which have not been
