A new mammalian model system for thalidomide teratogenesis: Monodelphis domestica [PDF]
Reproductive Toxicology, 2017 From 1957 to 1962, thalidomide caused birth defects in >10,000 children. While the drug was pulled from the market, thalidomide is currently prescribed to treat conditions including leprosy. As a result, a new generation of babies with thalidomide defects is being born in the developing world.

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

A suture in time: The ontogeny of cranial suture morphology in mammals
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 501-516, March 2026.Mammal cranial sutures are important indicators of the biomechanical and developmental pressures acting upon the skull. Across three prominent sutures dividing the vault of the mammalian skull, divergent patterns emerge both taxonomically and developmentally.

Tex19 and Sectm1 concordant molecular phylogenies support co-evolution of both eutherian-specific genes [PDF]
, 2015 International audienceBackground: Transposable elements (TE) have attracted much attention since they shape the genome and contribute to species evolution. Organisms have evolved mechanisms to control TE activity. Testis expressed 19 (Tex19) represses TE

Asp-ase Activity of the Opossum Granzyme B Supports the Role of Granzyme B as Part of Anti-Viral Immunity Already during Early Mammalian Evolution. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Granzyme B is one of the key effector molecules in our defense against viruses and intracellular bacteria. This serine protease together with the pore forming protein perforin, induces caspase or Bid-dependent apoptosis in target cells.
