Impulse Control in Parkinson's Disease: Distinct Effects between Action and Choice.

Aside from typical motor symptoms, impulse control issues related to engaging in actions or decision-making can manifest in Parkinson's disease (PD). The lack of direct comparisons between impulsive action and impulsive choice domains hinders a comprehensive understanding of impaired impulse control in this population. Therefore, the current review integrates findings across behavioural measures of impulsive action and choice in PD samples, both on and off dopaminergic medication.

The NmpRSTU multi-component signaling system of regulates expression of an oxygen utilization regulon.

Unlabelled: has numerous two-component signaling systems (TCSs), many of which regulate the complex social behaviors of this soil bacterium. A subset of TCSs consists of NtrC-like response regulators (RRs) and their cognate histidine sensor kinases (SKs). We have previously demonstrated that a multi-component, phosphorelay TCS named NmpRSTU plays a role in social motility.

A new species of Myxobolus (Cnidaria: Myxosporea: Myxobolidae) from the gills of the green sunfish, Lepomis cyanellus (Perciformes: Centrarchidae), from the Ouachita River Drainage of Western Arkansas.

Forty-two species of myxozoans, including 31 species of Myxobolus Bütschli, 1882, have been described from centrarchid fishes. One species, the green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus), has been reported to host at least three species of Myxobolus. Between March 2023 and June 2024, 42 L.

A new species of Choleoeimeria (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) from the invasive curious skink, Carlia ailanpalai (Sauria: Scincidae) from Guam, U.S. Territory.

The curious skink, Carlia ailanpalai Zug, occurs in the main group of the Admiralty Islands of Papua New Guinea but has also successfully invaded Guam, the Marianas, Yap, and Kosrae. A single coccidian, Eimeria zugi McAllister, Duszynski, Fisher, & Austin, 2013 was described from C. ailanpalai from Papua New Guinea.
