The adrenal stress response involves distinct dynamics of both cortisol and corticosterone in the axolotl salamander Lab Animal - This study examines adrenal stress responses and injury signals in axolotl, showing that corticosterone dominates after amputation, while cortisol, which rises with handling stress, is...

What is the primary stress hormone in the axolotl?
Well turns out they do both cortisol (like fish) and cortocosterone (like most amphibians). And use them under different stressor and with different dynamics.

A better image of microCT and xray diffrqction data from osteoderms! From https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.202526169

doi.org/10.1002/adfm... the image crop above didnt do justice to Adrian's graphical abstract showing MicroCT and xray diffraction derived data highlighting the different nanocrystalline structures accross different osteoderms. #BluSci #SciArt

Going to be talking about the 🦎 ❤️ - regenerating lizard hearts - at this meeting @aiasdk.bsky.social, presenting work led by Kathy Jacyniak at Guelph, please have a look at the fantastic talks that are on the program after mine, on 🐦, 🐍, humans, mice and others.

Sketch of Prof Lars Bejder giving the seminar of the week on body condition scores (how much blubber) of humpback whales on their migrations back and forth from Hawa'i (giving birth) to Alaska (feeding), and how this feeds into numbers and size of whales born. Also the cross over with other organisms (e.g. krill), methods (e.g. drone measurements and non invasive tags and samples, and how we as humans think about both whales and the general environment.

@lbejder1971.bsky.social at @aiasdk.bsky.social seminar - Humpback 🐋: how their migration & body condition score is studied, what this can tell us about population, calf size & how this affected by changes to the climate. Can charismatic mammals be used to bring about human change? #Sciart #Blusci
