Protein profiles of skin secretions of Rana dalmatina (Agile Frog), Rana macrocnemis (Uludağ Frog), Rana tavasensis (Tavas Frog) and Rana holtzi (Taurus Frog) frog species belonging to the Rana genus distributed in the Anatolian region of Türkiye were determined for the first time using the Tricine-SDS-PAGE Electrophoresis method and Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB) staining. By the results, some peptides with mass ≤5 kDa were detected. Just one peptide with mass ≤5 kDa was found in the secretion of each R.

Article Synopsis
- - Biological invasions are a big problem for ecosystems and economies, and Türkiye is especially at risk due to its trade connections and location between Europe and Asia.
- - Researchers analyzed the economic costs of invasive species in Türkiye and found it added up to about $4.1 billion from 1960 to 2022, mostly affecting agriculture and fisheries.
- - The yearly costs of these invasive species are increasing and could reach $504 million a year soon, highlighting the need for better tracking of these costs and better management strategies to deal with them.
The vertebral anatomy of snakes has attracted the attention of researchers for decades and numerous studies have been made for extinct and extant species. The present study investigated the morphological variations in vertebral structure among different vertebral regions in the dice snake Natrix tessellata, and provides a detailed anatomical and microstructural description of the vertebral column. Vertebrae were analyzed and compared using x-ray imaging, scanning electron microscopy, micro-computed tomography, and histological techniques.
