32 p, 5.1 MB How smart was T. rex? Testing claims of exceptional cognition in dinosaurs and the application of neuron count estimates in palaeontological research / Caspar, Kai R. (Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf) ; Gutiérrez-Ibáñez, Cristián (University of Alberta. Department of Biological Sciences) ; Bertrand, Ornella C. (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Carr, Thomas (Carthage College. Department of Biology) ; Colbourne, Jennifer A. D. (University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna) ; Erb, Arthur (University of Edinburgh) ; George, Hady (University of Bristol) ; Holtz Jr, Thomas R. (University of Maryland Department of Geology) ; Naish, Darren (University of Southampton) ; Wylie, Douglas R. (University of Alberta. Department of Biological Sciences) ; Grant R. Hurlburt (Royal Ontario Museum. Department of Natural History)
Recent years have seen increasing scientific interest in whether neuron counts can act as correlates of diverse biological phenomena. Lately, Herculano-Houzel (2023) argued that fossil endocasts and comparative neurological data from extant sauropsids allow to reconstruct telencephalic neuron counts in Mesozoic dinosaurs and pterosaurs, which might act as proxies for behaviors and life history traits in these animals.

16 p, 2.6 MB Lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene of Mazaterón (Soria, Spain) / Bolet, Arnau (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont)
The assemblage of lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene locality of Mazaterón (Spain) is described. Considering the rather limited material available for the study, the assemblage shows a moderate diversity with eight taxa corresponding to five different families. [...]

15 p, 2.2 MB Minocycline Does Not Reduce the Regenerative Capacity of Peripheral Motor and Sensory Neurons after a Conditioning Injury in Mice / Sánchez Brualla, Irene (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Neurociències) ; Calls, Aina (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Neurociències) ; Udina i Bonet, Esther (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Neurociències)
Minocycline has been reported to be both beneficial and detrimental for nerve regeneration after peripheral nerve injury. By reducing the inflammatory response, minocycline administration reduces pain and has neuroprotective effects, but it also inhibits Wallerian degeneration in the distal stump, and reduces microglia and macrophages activity on motor and sensory neurons, which could reduce their intrinsic regenerative capacity. [...]

14 p, 2.2 MB Postnatal ontogeny of the femur in fossorial and semiaquatic water voles in the 3D-shape space / Durão, Ana Filipa (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Biologia Animal, de Biologia Vegetal i d'Ecologia) ; Muñoz Muñoz, Francesc (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Biologia Animal, de Biologia Vegetal i d'Ecologia) ; Ventura Queija, Jacinto (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Biologia Animal, de Biologia Vegetal i d'Ecologia)
Water voles of the genus Arvicola constitute an excellent subject to investigate to which extent function affects postnatal developmental growth of limb structures in phylogenetically close species. We performed a comparative analysis of postweaning femur form changes between Arvicola sapidus (semiaquatic) and Arvicola scherman (fossorial) using three-dimensional landmark-based geometric morphometrics.

26 p, 1.4 MB Dexamethasone Reduces the Foreign Body Reaction to Intraneural Electrode Implants in the Peripheral Nerve of the Rat / de la Oliva, Natalia (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Neurociències) ; Navarro, X. (Xavier) (Xavier) (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Neurociències) ; Del Valle, Jaume (Institut Català de Nanociència i Nanotecnologia)
Intraneural electrodes must be in intimate contact with nerve fibers to have a proper function, but this interface is compromised due to the foreign body reaction (FBR). The FBR is characterized by a first inflammatory phase followed by a second anti-inflammatory and fibrotic phase, which results in the formation of a tissue capsule around the implant, causing physical separation between the active sites of the electrode and the nerve fibers. [...]
