Determination of mutagenicity of chemical compounds, physical factors and environmental pollutants by the Drosophila melanogaster wing somatic mutation and recombination test by L. P. Zakharenko, I. K. Zakharov

“…There are modifications to SMART, based on elevated cytochrome P450 expression, allowing more reliable extrapolation of the test results to mammals. Detailed recommendations for the use of the SMART method on the wing cells of Drosophila melanogaster presented in the paper can be used as a textbook in practice and for training purposes.…”

Coordinated One Health investigation and management of outbreaks in humans and animals caused by zoonotic avian influenza viruses by Theresa Enkirch, Andrea Gervelmeyer, Luisa Hallmaier‐Wacker, Angeliki Melidou, Katriina Willgert

“…Three scenarios are triggered by suspected outbreaks in animals, including kept animals of listed species, non‐listed species, companion animals and wild birds/mammals. The other two scenarios are initiated by a probable human case or detection of the virus in wastewater or environmental samples (e.g. surface water or other sources). …”

Genomic and Computational Analysis of Novel SNPs in TNP1 Gene Promoter Region of Bos indicus Breeding Bulls by Kashif Hameed Anjum, Asif Nadeem, Maryam Javed, Hafiz Ishfaq Ahmad, Amjad Riaz, Wasim Shehzad, Jahanzaib Azhar, Muhammad Fahad Bhutta

“…One such gene belonging to the TNP family called TNP1 gene is abundantly expressed in the regulation of spermatogenesis, and its sequence is remarkably well conserved among mammals. Genomic analysis, by sequencing and computational approach, was used to identify the novel polymorphisms and to evaluate the molecular regulation of TNP1 gene expression in Sahiwal cattle breeding bulls. …”
