Diffusion and Home Range Parameters from Rodent Population Measurements in Panama
Simple random walk considerations are used to interpret rodent population data collected in Hantavirus-related investigations in Panama regarding the short-tailed cane mouse, \emph{Zygodontomys brevicauda}.

Understanding the Phenotypic Heterogeneity Within the Sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob Disease MV1 Subtype
We present the clinical, pathological and prion biophysical features of three atypical cases of the MV1 subtype of sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (sCJD). We propose that these heterozygous cases exist on a spectrum ranging from MM1‐like to VV1‐like phenotypes and recommend that subtyping be performed at pH 6.9 to avoid missing atypical or mixed ...

Anthropogenic activities are changing landscapes and the context in which predator–prey dynamics evolved, thereby altering key ecological processes and community structure. Yet, the specific mechanisms underlying such changes are rarely understood.

Variation in deer mice from different elevations
Geographical variation in populations of Pero-myscus maniculatus from north-central Colorado was studied during the years 1957-1958. A total of seven hundred twenty-eight mice was collected from seven sites at elevations from 5,000 feet to 11,500 feet. The sites represented several diverse habitat types.

Abi3S212F Alzheimer's disease variant alters plaque structure and disrupts microglia
Abstract BACKGROUND Genetic variants affecting microglial function can influence Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The AD‐associated ABI3S209F (Abi3S212F in mouse) variant regulates cytoskeletal dynamics, but its in vivo impact on pathology is unknown. METHODS: An Abi3S212F mouse was developed and crossed with

Scrapie versus Chronic Wasting Disease in White-Tailed Deer
White-tailed deer are susceptible to scrapie (WTD scrapie) after oronasal inoculation with the classical scrapie agent from sheep. Deer affected by WTD scrapie are difficult to differentiate from deer infected with chronic wasting disease (CWD).

The deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) is the primary reservoir for Sin Nombre virus (SNV) in the western United States. Rodent surveillance for hantavirus in Death Valley National Park, California, USA, revealed cactus mice (P.

Objective Quaking‐induced conversion (QuIC) tests, which detect prion‐seeding activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), have markedly advanced the antemortem diagnosis of prion diseases such as Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease (CJD). These tests provide high diagnostic accuracy and enable timely differentiation from other rapidly progressive neurodegenerative ...
