Surveillance of SARS‐CoV‐2 in Pets of Harris County, Texas, Revealed More Common Pet Infections in Households With Human COVID‐19 Cases

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2025.
Timely zoonotic disease surveillance can be achieved through collaboration between local health departments and academic partners. In Harris County, Texas, we sampled animals arriving to low‐cost spay/neuter clinics and those in homes with human COVID‐19 cases and found that over 13% of pets were exposed to SARS‐CoV‐2.

Compellingly high SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility of Golden Syrian hamsters suggests multiple zoonotic infections of pet hamsters during the COVID-19 pandemic

Scientific Reports, 2022
Golden Syrian hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) are used as a research model for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Millions of Golden Syrian hamsters are also kept as pets in close contact to humans.

Using retrospective analyses to adaptively manage conservation breeding of an endangered rodent

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
The conservation of at‐risk species increasingly relies on ex‐situ breeding programs, whose success hinges on producing offspring. We demonstrate the utility of using retrospective analyses within an adaptive management framework to investigate the relative importance of decisions on the reproductive success of the endangered Pacific pocket mouse.

Effect of losing a fight on later agonistic behavior toward unfamiliar conspecifics in male Syrian hamsters

Current Zoology, 2011
In many species, agonistic interactions result in social relationships that are stable over time. In Syrian hamsters, two unfamiliar males that are placed together will fight vigorously and a clear winner/loser relationship is usually established.

Rodent model of metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease: a systematic review

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 48-66, January 2025.
Abstract Although significant progress has been made in developing preclinical models for metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), few have encapsulated the essential biological and clinical outcome elements reflective of the human condition.

Perineuronal Nets in Syrian Hamsters: Anatomical Localization, Sex Differences, Diurnal Variation, and Response to Social Stress

Brain and Behavior, Volume 14, Issue 12, December 2024.
Syrian hamsters exhibit an anatomical distribution of perineuronal nets (PNNs) that is unique from that observed in other common laboratory rodents. We observed little change in PNNs based on lighting or after social defeat stress, but we did find significant sex differences in PNNs, indicating that studies of PNN function should include both sexes ...
