Epizootologic characteristics of rabies incidence in the Republic of Bashkortostan for the period 1998 - 2006 are presented. Districts of Bashkortostan are divided on 3 zones according to severity of epizootic situation. Three years-cyclicity of rabies incidence with peak during winter was determined. Foxes, raccoons, wolves, lynxes, badgers, minks and, during recent years, corsacs are involved into the epizootic chain. Main source of rabies in the Republic is foxes with share of 91.9% among sick wild animals. During 1999-2006 8 cases of hydrophobia were registered. Results of analysis of effectiveness of oral immunization and regulation of wild fauna population are presented.

Intrinsic and environmental drivers of pairwise cohesion in wild Canis social groups.

Ecology

January 2025

Wildlife Research and Monitoring Section, Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.

Animals within social groups respond to costs and benefits of sociality by adjusting the proportion of time they spend in close proximity to other individuals in the group (cohesion). Variation in cohesion between individuals, in turn, shapes important group-level processes such as subgroup formation and fission-fusion dynamics. Although critical to animal sociality, a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing cohesion remains a gap in our knowledge of cooperative behavior in animals.

Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a multifactor-induced neurodegenerative disease with high incidence in the elderly population. We found for the first time that the combination of dopamine (DA) and 3-n-butylphthalide (NBP) has great potential for the synergistic treatment of PD. To further improve the therapeutic performance of the drugs, a brain-targeting liposomal co-delivery system encapsulating NBP and DA ((NBP+DA)-Lips-RVG29) was designed using a rabies virus polypeptide with 29 amino acids (RVG29) as the targeting ligand.
