Flies from meat processing facilities are carriers of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli and diverse Staphylococcaceae speciesNARA Subscribed
Flies are important vectors of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in food production, but their role in meat processing environments remains poorly characterized. This study isolated Enterobacteriaceae and Staphylococcaceae (including Mammaliicoccus sciuri ) from flies collected in bovine and swine slaughterhouses and meat processing industries. Phenotypic AMR was assessed, and the presence of selected antimicrobial resistance and...
Skeletal muscle is crucial for glucose regulation and amino acid storage, significantly influencing overall metabolic balance. Its function is tightly regulated by complex mechanisms, with histone acetylation as a key epigenetic control point. Our previous work identified eIF6 as a key regulator of muscle energy homeostasis and demonstrated its role in modulating histone acetylation in the liver. However, whether similar epige...
Microbiological quality and allergen assessment of vegan-labelled foods sold in TurinNARA Subscribed
The consumption of vegan-labelled foods has increased due to ethical, environmental, and health motivations, yet comprehensive evaluations of their microbiological safety and undeclared animal-derived allergens remain limited. This study analyzed 34 vegan products from Turin, Italy, using microbiological assays alongside biomolecular and immunoenzymatic techniques to detect crustacean and vertebrate DNA, as well as milk and eg...
Cerebellar syndromes are clinically and etiologically heterogeneous and can be classified as hereditary, neurodegenerative non-hereditary, or acquired. Few data are available on the frequency of each form in the clinical setting. Growing interest is emerging regarding the genetic forms caused by triplet repeat expansions. Alleles with repeat expansion lower than the pathological threshold, termed intermediate alleles (IAs), ha...
NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal specie...
NEOTROPICAL XENARTHRANS: a data set of occurrence of xenarthran species in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Xenarthrans—anteaters, sloths, and armadillos—have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting pressure, and conflicts with domestic dogs, these species have been threatened locally, regionally, or even across their full distribution ranges. The Neotropics harbor 21 species of armadillos,...
