Bone remodeling in the longest living rodent, the naked mole-rat : interelement variation and the effects of reproduction

Montoya-Sanhueza, German; Bennett, Nigel Charles; Oosthuizen, Maria Kathleen; Dengler-Crish, Christine M.; Chinsamy, Anusuya (Wiley, 2021-07)

The pattern of bone remodeling of one of the most peculiar mammals in the world, the naked mole-rat (NMR), was assessed. NMRs are known for their long lifespans among rodents and for having low metabolic rates. We assessed ...
Long bone histomorphogenesis of the naked mole-rat : histodiversity and intraspecific variation

Montoya-Sanhueza, German; Bennett, Nigel Charles; Oosthuizen, Maria Kathleen; Dengler-Crish, Christine M.; Chinsamy, Anusuya (Wiley, 2021-06)

Lacking fur, living in eusocial colonies and having the longest lifespan of any rodent, makes naked mole-rats (NMRs) rather peculiar mammals. Although they exhibit a high degree of polymorphism, skeletal plasticity and are ...
