Architectonic subdivisions of neocortex in the tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri).
Tree shrews are small mammals that bear some semblance to squirrels, but are actually close relatives of primates. Thus, they have been extensively studied as a model for the early stages of primate evolution. In this study, subdivisions of cortex were reconstructed from brain sections cut in the coronal, sagittal, or horizontal planes, and processed for parvalbumin, SMI-32-immunopositive neuro...
متن کاملPositively selected genes of the Chinese tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri chinensis) locomotion system.
While the recent release of the Chinese tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri chinensis) genome has made the tree shrew an increasingly viable experimental animal model for biomedical research, further study of the genome may facilitate new insights into the applicability of this model. For example, though the tree shrew has a rapid rate of speed and strong jumping ability, there are limited studies on ...
متن کامل“Lens Mitochondria” in the Retinal Cones of the Tree-shrew Tupaia belangeri
In all mammals, the mitochondria of the cones of the retina are concentrated in the inner segment. Uniquely in tree-shrews (Tupaia, Scandentia, Mammalia), a "megamitochondrion" exhibiting highly specialized systems of densely packed cristae and a very electron dense matrix, is located apically in the inner segment. The ellipsoid is a solid body containing several megamitochondria and, towards i...
متن کاملRole of thermal physiology and bioenergetics on adaptation in tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri): the experiment test
Ambient conditions, as temperature and photoperiod, play a key role in animals' physiology and behaviors. To test the hypothesis that the maximum thermal physiological and bioenergetics tolerances are induced by extreme environments in Tupaia belangeri. We integrated the acclimatized and acclimated data in several physiological, hormonal, and biochemical markers of thermogenic capacity and bioe...
متن کاملPsychophysical measurement of temporal modulation sensitivity in the tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri)
Temporal modulation sensitivity functions (MSFs) were measured behaviorally in three adult tree shrews (Tupaia belangeri). Shrews were trained to detect temporal sinusoidally-modulated full-field luminance variations in one of three stimuli, the two alternatives being static stimuli of equal size and time-averaged luminance (34 cd/m2). Modulation depth was varied trial-by-trial using a modified...
