Rodent-borne zoonoses in Qatar: A possible One-Health framework for the intervention of future epidemic

, 2023
The increasing frequency of spillover of zoonotic pathogens from animals to humans in recent years highlights a need to develop a more comprehensive framework to investigate and prevent pathogens of animal origin, including rodents.

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

A critical review of the rodent social release paradigm: empathy or social reinforcement [PDF]

, 2020
Research on social animal behavior is growing within social neuroscience. Basic research on behavioral processes in animals has always been the forte of behavior analysis, but the collaboration and crossover between the fields are minimal.

Forest disturbance impacts the demography of an endemic rodent within the Eastern Arc Mountains

Geology, Ecology, and Landscapes
Though information on the population dynamics and reproduction of the endemic delectable soft-furred mouse, Praomys delectorum, abound, the impact of anthropogenic disturbances on these parameters is still not known. This study investigated the impact of

Host-Dependent Clustering of Campylobacter Strains From Small Mammals in Finland

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Small mammals are known to carry Campylobacter spp.; however, little is known about the genotypes and their role in human infections. We studied intestinal content from small wild mammals collected in their natural habitats in Finland in 2010–2017, and ...

Rodents, Rodent Control, and Food Safety [PDF]

Proceedings of the Vertebrate Pest Conference, 2008
Author(s): Salmon, Terrell P. | Abstract: The safety of the food supply is a primary consideration of farmers, wholesale and retail establishments, and ultimately consumers. In 2006, a major outbreak of food-borne illness in the U.S. caused by Escherichia coli O157:H7contaminated bagged spinach resulted in 3 deaths and over 200 illnesses.

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

Host selection and influencing factors of parasitic fleas on the body surface of desert rodents, Inner Mongolia, China

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Fleas frequently parasitize rodents and serve as major vectors for many zoonotic diseases. The Alxa Desert in Inner Mongolia, China, is a typical arid region in Asia, which is suitable for the coexistence of a variety of rodents in this environment ...

Spatio-temporal home range of the dominant rodent species in Mabira central forest reserve, Uganda

BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Background Rodents form the largest order among mammals in terms of species diversity, and home range is the area where an individual normally moves during its normal daily activities.

Small RNA pathways in mammalian oocytes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Three distinct small RNA pathways operate in mammalian oocytes: RNAi interference (RNAi), the microRNA (miRNA) pathway, and the PIWI‐associated RNA (piRNA) pathway. These pathways use small RNAs to guide sequence‐specific repression and contribute to oocyte biology by targeting genes and mobile elements or appear insignificant since different ...
