One form is an acute disease caused by Hepatitis A virus that is transmitted by contaminated water or food. The other form is caused by Hepatitis B virus or Hepatitis C virus (this year’s Nobel prize). This form of blood-borne hepatitis is often a chronic disease that may progress to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/2020-nobel-prize-winners.png2020-nobel-prize-winnersSource: Harvey J.

In contrast, the percentage of manuscripts that originated from US-based authors during 2000 to 2015 has decreased in high-impact journals (P = 0.007) or remained relatively unchanged for mid-impact journals (P = 0.28), while those originating from China-based authors has steadily increased in both high-impact (P = 0.02) and mid-impact journals (P = 0.04).

(1) Internal and external factors are communicated to the body. (2) Next, these factors are relayed through various signaling pathways to stimulatory and inhibitory molecules present in neurons located in the hypothalamus. (3) Stimulatory and inhibitory molecules travel to GnRH neurons and affect the release of GnRH. (4) GnRH stimulates reproductive processes that are critical for the initiation of puberty. (5) Once all of the proper conditions are met, reproductive maturity is attained.https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/gnrh-neurons.jpggnrh-neuronsA GnRH neuron present in the hypothalamus.2016-11-14T15:18:40+00:00monthlyhttps://speakingofresearch.com/2016/11/10/society-for-neuroscience-session-on-engaging-institutions-about-animal-research/https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/society-for-neuroscience-2016.jpgsociety-for-neuroscience-2016https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/consortium-on-animal-research.jpgconsortium-on-animal-researchhttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/society-for-neuroscience-2016-meeting.jpgsociety-for-neuroscience-2016-meetingImage by Society for Neuroscience2016-11-10T15:12:11+00:00monthlyhttps://speakingofresearch.com/2016/11/09/the-case-for-using-large-animal-models-to-study-reproduction/https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/livestock-breeding.jpglivestock-breedingA laparoscopic procedure is used to artificially inseminate sheephttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/human-and-mouse-brain.jpghuman-and-mouse-brainComparison between mouse (smooth cortex) and human (sulcated cortex) brain.

The Animal Welfare Act (AWA) states that covered species are defined as: "with certain exceptions, any live or dead dog, cat, monkey (nonhuman primate mammal), guinea pig, hamster, rabbit, or such other warm-blooded animal, as the Secretary [of Agriculture] may determine is being used, or is intended for use for research” (7 U.S.C. 2132(g) The 2002 Farm Bill amended this definition to exclude purpose-bred rats, mice, and birds from the provisions of the AWA. Note that certain types of research with animals and most animal testing are also subject to regulation and oversight by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/guide-for-the-care-and-use-of-laboratory-animals3.jpgGuide for the Care and Use of Laboratory AnimalsGuide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/guide-for-the-care-and-use-of-laboratory-animals2.jpgGuide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animalshttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/guide-for-the-care-and-use-of-laboratory-animals1.jpgGuide for the Care and Use of Laboratory AnimalsGuide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animalshttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/ajb-graphic-us-regulation1.jpgGraphic - US regulationOverview of animal research regulation in the UShttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/ajb-graphic-us-regulation.jpgAJB graphic US regulationOverview of animal research regulation in the United Stateshttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/guide-for-the-care-and-use-of-laboratory-animals.jpgGuide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals2016-05-24T19:15:45+00:00monthlyhttps://speakingofresearch.com/2016/05/13/two-years-on-the-concordat-on-openness-on-animal-research/https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/concordat-logo.jpgConcordat logohttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/quality-of-animal-research-statements-compared.jpgQuality of animal research statements comparedhttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/institutioinal-webpages.jpgInstitutioinal Webpageshttps://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/cambridge-university-animal-research.jpgCambridge University animal research2016-05-20T11:37:47+00:00monthlyhttps://speakingofresearch.com/2016/05/18/dr-dettmer-goes-to-washington-part-3/https://speakingofresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/rep-john-delaney-and-dr-dettmer.jpgRep John Delaney and Dr DettmerDr. Dettmer with Rep.
