Millions of hibernating bats across North America have died from white-nose syndrome(WNS),an emerging disease caused by a psychrophilic(cold-loving)fungus,Pseudogymnoascus destructans,that invades their skin.Mechanism...

Spinal cord injury is a serious disease of the central nervous system involving irreversible nerve injury and various organ system injuries.At present,no effective clinical treatment exists.As one of the artificial hi...
Hibernation is a state adopted by certain mammals as an adaptation to adverse winter conditions.Typical features of hibernation include greatly reduced metabolic activity and lowered body temperature.As warm-blooded a...

Small mammals that are specialists in homeothermic thermoregulation reduce their self-maintenance costs of normothermy to survive the winter.By contrast,heterothermic ones that are considered generalists in thermoregu...

Energy conservation is paramount for small mammals because of their small size,large surface area to volume ratio,and the resultant high heat loss to the environment.To survive on limited food resources and to fuel th...
Although human hibernation has been introduced as an effective technique in space exploration,there are concerns regarding the intrinsic risks of the approach(i.e.,synthetic torpor)and other factors involved in this p...
Therapeutic hypothermia is today used in several clinical settings, among them the gut related diseases that are influenced by ischemia/reperfusion injury. This perspective paved the way to the study of hibernation ph...

Very few selected species of primates are known to be capable of entering torpor. This exciting discovery means that the ability to enter a natural state of dormancy is an ancestral trait among primates and, in phylog...

Gray mouse lemurs(Microcebus murinus) from Madagascar present an excellent model for studies of torpor regulation in a primate species. In the present study, we analyzed the response of the insulin signaling pathway...
