Biomolecules, 2019 Ethanol (EtOH) metabolism itself can be a predisposing factor for initiation of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Therefore, a dose dependent study to evaluate liver injury was conducted in hepatic alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) deficient (ADH−) and ADH normal

SARS-CoV-2 infection and transmission in the North American deer mouse
Nature Communications, 2021 Deer mice are natural hosts for a number of human pathogens. Here, Griffin et al. report that intranasal exposure of the North American deer mouse to SARS-CoV-2 results in virus replication and shedding, despite causing only mild or asymptomatic illness.

Anthropogenic noise decreases activity and calling behavior in wild mice [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background Animals rely on sound to mediate a myriad of daily activities, and anthropogenic noise is a pollutant that alters the natural soundscape within which they are active.

Deer Mice As Laboratory Animals [PDF]
ILAR Journal, 1998 Although laboratory mice (Mus) and rats (Rattus) are the most widely used research rodents, deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) and their congeneric species are favored as nontraditional alternatives for some purposes. Mice of the native genus Peromyscus are the most abundant and widely distributed rodents in North America.

Photoperiod and Reproduction in Female Deer Mice [PDF]
Biology of Reproduction, 1982 Female deer mice were exposed to a short day (SD, 6L:18D) photoperiod beginning during 1 of 3 stages of life. In the first experiment, exposure to SD during adulthood resulted in a minimal disruption of reproductive condition; many females bore 2 litters after the onset of this treatment.

Age and aerobic performance in deer mice [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2003 SUMMARYAge impacts the phenotype of all multicellular animals, but lifetime changes in physiological traits are poorly understood for all but a few species. Here, we describe a cross-sectional study of age effects on body composition, aerobic performance and ventilation in deer mice Peromyscus maniculatus.

Development and Characterization of a Sin Nombre Virus Transmission Model in Peromyscus maniculatus
Viruses, 2019 In North America, Sin Nombre virus (SNV) is the main cause of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), a severe respiratory disease with a fatality rate of 35⁻40%. SNV is a zoonotic pathogen carried by deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), and few
