"This important work [and others] tells us more than we've ever known before about the specific cellular and molecular processes by which memories are made and stored in mammalian brains," Smart said.
|
|
We are not going to get any insight into possible mechanisms or therapeutics for that kind of structural regeneration by studying humans and more broadly, studying anything that looks like mammalian regeneration.

It worked exactly as you'd think a totally instinctive mammalian process that had been operating for thousands of years would — but if it hadn't, then it would have been a lot harder.
|
|
Some anti-bacterial peptides work by punching holes in cell membranes, making them toxic to mammalian cells, but fortuitously, urumin does not, according to observations the researchers made using an electron microscope.
|
|
"Sexual and emotional responses are fundamental drivers of human behavior, and the links among sex, bonding, and reproduction ultimately ensure the survival of most mammalian species," write researchers from Imperial College London.
|
|
"Our results certainly suggest a unifying pattern that is likely to explain much of the diversity in mammalian sperm size and possibly beyond," he says, while noting more research is still needed.
|
|
The scientists also found bursts of brain activity during the lizard's slow-wave sleep that they proposed were the equivalent of what are known as sharp-wave ripples in mammalian sleep patterns.
|
|
The ripples — which, in mammalian sleep, have been observed in a brain area called the hippocampus — have been associated in rats with the replaying of recent tasks while the animals were awake.
|
|
Nor, for want of the neural apparatus needed to keep track of favours given and received, can they easily play the mammalian game of "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours".
|
|
While it's a fact that most mammalian societies are male-dominant, the point is that nature doesn't have to follow that rule, as evidenced by the wide spectrum of behaviors that exist.
|
|
"Until very recently there was still this belief that human speech and mammalian vocalizations are two completely different things," said Steffen R. Hage, a neurobiologist at the University of Tubingen in Germany.
|
|
"Insects and mammals last shared a common ancestor more than 500 million years ago, and, in many respects, mammalian brains are substantially more complex than insect brains," conclude the authors in the study.

This, the researchers felt, was worth investigating because L. reuteri was shown, three years ago, to promote the release of oxytocin, a hormone that plays an important role in controlling mammalian social behaviour.
|
|
Though further study is needed to understand how and why the T. magnus generates the fluid, the study should further challenge the assumption that lactation is a uniquely mammalian trait, said Dr. Corlett.
|
|
The human brain is a kludge of different operating systems: the ancient reptilian brain (motor functions, fight-or-flight instincts), the limbic or mammalian brain (emotions) and the more recently evolved neocortex (rationality).
|
|
Maybe naturists truly believe it's possible for a body to just be a body — that by imposing a neutral state of mammalian coexistence, people can fake social equilibrium, if only for an afternoon.
|
|
Making things more difficult, mammalian brains are made of squishy gray matter, as opposed to the mostly transparent—and therefore easier to image—worm and fish brains that Vaziri's team had previously studied.
|
|
Still, even researchers who think the country will fail agree that if any nation can eradicate its most persistent mammalian predators in 34 years, New Zealand would be the one to do it.
|
|
"As midlevel predators, snakes may be an integral part of food webs consuming a large number of rodents and other animals and they themselves being consumed by larger mammalian and avian predators," said Burbrink.
|
|
Every dinosaur lineage except for birds was snuffed out in the aftermath, along with three-quarters of all plant and animal species—a disruption that ultimately enabled the rise of our own mammalian family.
|
|
Standing in the way of this are older religious humans who overwhelming control governments and legal policy around the world, and they will insist we remain biological mammalian entities for as long as possible.
|
|
By some estimates, Gigantopithecus reached up to 10 feet (3 meters) tall, making it not only the largest-known ape but the biggest primate, the mammalian group that includes lemurs, monkeys, apes and humans.
|
|
This hotbed of mammalian endemism is largely due to the islands' position between landmasses: close enough for things to fly or float there occasionally, but far enough away to make leaving the islands difficult.
|
|
Scientists long thought that mammalian hearts stop producing most of their new cells shortly after birth, and that when they grow bigger, they do so primarily because the size of their existing cells increases.
|
|
In recent years, evidence has emerged suggesting that in various mammalian species, breast milk — which is, of course, a resource that can be given to children — is tailored for the sex of each offspring.
|
|
Were this all there was to elephant society, it would still be quite complex by mammalian standards—similar in scope to that of lions, which also live in matriarchal family groups that eject maturing males.
|
|
UC Berkeley announced Tuesday it received a patent for a single-molecule guide RNA that can be used with the Cas-9 enzyme by the gene-editing tool CRISPR in plants, bacteria and mammalian cells.

|
|
We're no experts on mammalian diets but it seems like a diet made up of only plant-based foods might not be substantial enough for a half-ton bear—it's not enough for some humans.
|
|
So does Ice Age: Collision Course take place 35 million years in the future, perhaps suggesting we are doomed to live out endless cycles of mammalian death and rebirth, until we finally get things right?
|
|
The revolution in artificial intelligence stems in large part from the power of one particular kind of artificial neural network, whose design is inspired by the connected layers of neurons in the mammalian visual cortex.
|

"In these and many other respects, spotted hyenas appear to violate many of the accepted 'rules' of mammalian biology," Holekamp wrote in 2011, in a travel diary of her research for the New York Times.
|
|
Mammalian species tend to survive 1-2 million years, so were we just a normal species the best bet would be something like 800,000-1.8 million years (we have been around for about 200,000 years already).
|

"The hope is that by addressing questions of consent, we will reframe whole industries that rely on the literal rape of nonhumans, like GMO agriculture and the artificial insemination and reproduction of mammalian species," Kronemyer says.
|
|
The game is Shelter, and you spend less time looking for somewhere to huddle down than you do trying to shepherd your five mammalian babies through a world that's trying to kill them at every step.
|
|
It seems that there are biologically rooted rules to how mammalian vocalizations encode emotions and these shared processes help humans to assess the emotional load of not just dogs but other mammal species' vocal emotion expressions.
|
|
That makes the human immune system unusual: It can learn to see alpha-gal, present in the beef and pork and other mammalian meat we eat, as foreign and threatening, thereby allowing for an allergic response.
|

While the jury is still out on that wild claim, we do know for sure that a member of the British royal family has approved the large-scale forced sterilization of that other invasive mammalian species: squirrels.
|
|
The process involves immersing a mammalian brain with a chemical stabilizer (a glutaraldehyde-based fixative) and cryoprotectants (to prevent damage while cooling), then bringing it down to -211 degrees Fahrenheit (-135 degrees Celsius) for long-term storage.
|

"With this discovery, we're starting to see the entire skull of many of these mammals that we previously only knew from teeth," said Stephen Chester, a mammalian paleontologist at Brooklyn College and an author on the paper.
|
|
All mammalian species (including humans) have small snips of viral DNA embedded in their genetic code and researchers feared that if pig tissues were implanted in humans, the viruses lurking in pig DNA could infect human cells.
|
|
Whereas placodes in avian and mammalian embryos last long enough that they are easy to see, reptilian placodes exist for a brief period of about 12 hours, and pop up on different locations depending on the species.
|
