This study shows glucose, but not methylglyoxal, reduces survival in zebra finches, with increased mortality and albumin glycation observed in glucose-supplemented birds.

This study shows that glucose and methylglyoxal affect plasma proteins, immune traits, and glucose homeostasis in zebra finches, with sex- and season-dependent variations.

This study investigates the effects of glucose and methylglyoxal on oxidative stress, telomere dynamics, and apoptosis in zebra finches, finding distinct impacts on health and aging.

This study examines glycation rates and glucose levels across 88 bird species to assess their relationship with life history traits, finding resistance to glycation in high glucose species and unexpected patterns in lifespan and diet.

The paper examines how plasma glucose and albumin glycation rates relate to age and fitness in Alpine swifts, finding age-related changes and links to reproductive success and survival.

This study investigates mitochondrial bioenergetics and oxidative stress in queens of Lasius niger, finding that their longevity is associated with better mitochondrial maintenance rather than reduced oxidative damage.

The paper examines telomere length as an indicator of individual quality and reproductive success in female European starlings, finding weak support for telomeres as predictors of future reproduction.
