Stereotypy and spontaneous alternation in deer mice and its response to anti‐adenosinergic intervention
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Journal of Neuroscience Research"
DOI: 10.1002/jnr.24867
Abstract: Repetitive behavioral phenotypes are a trait of several neuropsychiatric disorders, including obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD). Such behaviors are typified by complex interactions between cognitive and neurobiological processes which most likely contribute to the suboptimal treatment responses… read more here.

The Evolutionary History of Nebraska Deer Mice: Local Adaptation in the Face of Strong Gene Flow
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Molecular Biology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msy004
Abstract: Abstract The interplay of gene flow, genetic drift, and local selective pressure is a dynamic process that has been well studied from a theoretical perspective over the last century. Wright and Haldane laid the foundation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/fbp.0000000000000678
Abstract: Obsessive-compulsive disorder is varyingly associated with cognitive impairment, that is, deficits in spatial working memory, although it seems unlikely that this is generalised across all domains of functioning. Further, it is unclear whether symptoms will… read more here.

Captive and urban environments are associated with distinct gut microbiota in deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus)

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2022.0547
Abstract: Animals in captive and urban environments encounter evolutionarily novel conditions shaped by humans, such as altered diets, exposure to human-associated bacteria, and, potentially, medical interventions. Captive and urban environments have been demonstrated to affect gut… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/apha.12912
Abstract: We compared the control of breathing and heart rate by hypoxia between high‐ and low‐altitude populations of Peromyscus mice, to help elucidate the physiological specializations that help high‐altitude natives cope with O2 limitation. read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.164491
Abstract: ABSTRACT We examined the circulatory mechanisms underlying adaptive increases in thermogenic capacity in deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) native to the cold hypoxic environment at high altitudes. Deer mice from high- and low-altitude populations were born… read more here.

DOI: 10.3201/eid2904.221594
Abstract: The global spread of monkeypox virus has raised concerns over the establishment of novel enzootic reservoirs in expanded geographic regions. We demonstrate that although deer mice are permissive to experimental infection with clade I and… read more here.

Behavioral restriction, lorazepam, and escitalopram uniquely influence the expression of naturalistic stereotypy in deer mice: perspectives on anxiety- and compulsive-like behavior

DOI: 10.3389/fnbeh.2022.1071157
Abstract: Introduction: Stereotypical expression in laboratory-housed rodents can be explained by different motivational, coping, and motor dysfunction theories. Here, we aimed to explore the neurocognitive underpinnings of high stereotypical (HS) expression in deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2021.718163
Abstract: Developmental plasticity can elicit phenotypic adjustments that help organisms cope with environmental change, but the relationship between developmental plasticity and plasticity in adult life (e.g., acclimation) remains unresolved. We sought to examine developmental plasticity and… read more here.
