First evidence of Schmallenberg virus infection in domestic ruminants in Kosovo and Albania by Agim Rexhepi, Kerstin Wernike, Kristaq Berxholi, Nue Marku, Jeton Spahiu, Kurtesh Sherifi

“…Schmallenberg virus (SBV), a novel Orthobunyavirus, emerged in European domestic ruminants in 2011 causing abortions and malformations in newborns and none or mild clinical symptoms in adult animals. Here, a total of 364 bovine, ovine and caprine serum samples were collected in Kosovo and Albania between May 2014 and August 2016 and analyzed for the presence of anti‑SBV antibodies. …”

Astrocytic 5-HT1A receptor mediates age-dependent hippocampal LTD and fear memory extinction in male mice by Qian-Yun Wu, Lian-Hong Lin, Kun Lu, Si-Fu Deng, Wei-Min Li, Yuan Xu, Bin Zhang, Ji-Hong Liu

“…In this study, we found that LFS-induced LTD was not easily induced in adult animals and was age dependent. Interestingly, the level of the 5-HT1A receptor was correspondingly increased and exhibited an inverse correlation with the magnitude of LFS-LTD during development. …”

INFLUENCE OF THE PREGNANCY AT EARLY AGE ON THE REPRODUCTION AND PRODUCTION LIFE IN EWES OF THE BOTOSANI KARAKUL BREED by ELENA FECIORU, GH. HRINCA, M. GROZA, S. URSU, GH. BRĂDĂȚAN

“…The experimental results point out that the age of the first freshening in the Botosani Karakul sheep (early mating or mating at normal physiological age) does not influence or unsignificantly influences the morpho-production parameters and reproduction indices of the adult animal. But, forwarding the reproduction activity of ewes with an year, a gain of lamb number and of milk production is obtained on the whole productive period of ewes, thus contibuting to streamlining the economic situation of sheep farms specializated for the lamb pelt production.…”

Even without changing the bone mineral density, alcohol consumption decreases the percentage of collagen, the thickness of bone trabeculae, and increases bone fragility by ODIVAL SEABRA, VANDAIR G. PEREIRA, ANA PAULA ESPINDULA, FABRIZIO A.G. CARDOSO, JOSÉ B. VOLPON, SANÍVIA A.L. PEREIRA, RODRIGO C. ROSA

“…The results suggest harmful effects of alcohol intake on the bone quality of young adult animals and draw attention to the need to also consider methods for the diagnosis of collagen as an element of bone fragility.…”

Follicle-innervating Aδ-low threshold mechanoreceptive neurons form receptive fields through homotypic competition by Matthew B. Pomaville, Kevin M. Wright

“…Using a constitutive Bax knockout to increase the number of neurons in adult animals, we show that two LTMR subtypes have differential responses to an increase in neuronal population size: Aδ-LTMR neurons shrink their receptive fields to accommodate the increased number of neurons innervating the skin, while C-LTMR neurons do not. …”
