Quantifying animal movements is necessary for answering a wide array of research questions in ecology and conservation biology. Consequently, ecologists have made considerable efforts to identify the best way to estimate an animal's home range, and many methods of estimating home ranges have arisen over the past half a century. Most of these methods fall into two distinct categories of estimators that have only recently been d...
Doxorubicin (DOX), a widely used anthracycline in cancer therapy, is associated with significant cardiovascular toxicity. While its cardiotoxic effects are well documented, the mechanisms and prevention of DOX-induced vascular toxicity remain insufficiently explored. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), such as perindopril (PER), are commonly used in cardiovascular disease management and may offer vascular protect...
The Toxicology Investigators Consortium 2024 Annual ReportNARA Subscribed
The Asia-Pacific Region (APR) encompasses a vast geographical area rich in marine biodiversity that plays critical roles in global ecological stability and climate regulation, but it also faces daunting challenges in maintaining these roles under global change. Environmental dynamics in the APR manifest regularly over a range of timescales, including storms, earthquakes, floods, and extreme heat events. Further, coastal and ma...
Paleoenvironmental reconstruction was conducted on a short sediment core from a subalpine lake (Low Tatra Mountains, Slovakia) spanning the past ~ 300 years, and aimed to assess the impact of climatic oscillations and the well-documented human activities in the catchment. An analysis of subfossil chironomid remains was applied, supported by a land cover reconstruction using historical maps and orthoimagery. Two main phases of...
The quality of nutrition and environmental pollution are crucial chemical indicators influencing animal health, reflected in element concentrations in animal tissues and coats. This study investigates the concentrations of biogenic elements (calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium, copper, and iron) in sheep wool from various regions of Slovakia to compare concentrations and identify possible correlations between individual elem...

The effect of bee drone brood on the motility and viability of stallion spermatozoa—an in vitro studyNARA Subscribed
Bee drone brood is a beehive by-product with high hormonal activity used in natural medicine to treat male infertility. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of drone brood on stallion spermatozoa during a short-term incubation for its potential use in the equine semen extenders. Three different forms of fixed drone brood (frozen (FR), freeze-dried (FD), and dried extract (DE)) were used. Solutions of drone brood were...
Evaluating expert‐based habitat suitability information of terrestrial mammals with GPS‐ tracking dataNARA Subscribed
Aim Macroecological studies that require habitat suitability data for many species often derive this information from expert opinion. However, expert‐based information is inherently subjective and thus prone to errors. The increasing availability of GPS tracking data offers opportunities to evaluate and supplement expert‐based information with detailed empirical evidence. Here, we compared expert‐based habitat suitability info...
