Bat power-metabolic profiling of the Egyptian fruit bat Rousettus aegyptiacus reveals distinctive cardiac adaptations
The present study aimed to elucidate which pathways contribute to cardiometabolic adaptation in Egyptian fruit bats. Utilising cardiac tissues from Egyptian fruit bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus) and C57B...
