Effects of endurance training on skeletal muscle mitochondrial respiration in Siberian huskies and Alaskan huskies Siberian huskies (SH) and Alaskan huskies (AH), sharing ancestry with ancient sled dogs, were hypothesized to achieve similar skeletal muscle (SM) mitochondrial respiration capacities and densities t...

New paper out in Physiological Reports @physrep.bsky.social about effects of training on the skeletal muscle mitochondria of Siberian and Alaskan huskies 😊🐶

Frontiers | Potential for flexible lactate shuttling between astrocytes and neurons to mitigate against diving-induced hypoxia For most non-diving mammals, lack of O2 (hypoxia) has detrimental effects on brain function. Seals, however, display a series of systemic, cellular, and mole...

The second paper from my PhD thesis is out in Frontiers in Neuroanatomy!🤩🤩

I can finally stop having nightmares on primary cell cultures 😅 🧫
