Novel anti-cancer mechanism found in long-lived rodents
sea-maid submitted, created time 3 months 2 weeks (esciencenews.com)
Biologists at the University of Rochester have found that small-bodied rodents with long lifespans have evolved a previously unknown anti-cancer mechanism that appears to be different from any anticancer mechanisms employed by humans or other large mammals. The findings are published in today's issue of Aging Cell. Understanding this mechanism may help prevent cancer in humans because many human cancers originate from stem cells and similar mechanisms may regulate stem cell division.

Extreme climatic events are predicted to increase in frequency and magnitude, but their ecological impacts are poorly understood. Such events are large, infrequent, stochastic perturbations that can change the outcome of entrained ecological processes. Here they show how an extreme flood event affected a desert rodent community that has been monitored for 30 years.
Naked mole-rats don't feel the burn

Researchers have added to the list of biological curiosities about mole-rats: the animals do not feel all types of pain. The discovery could eventually help humans who are battling chronic discomfort.

The problem: The bodega owners will be fined for keeping cats in the stores, but a live cat is a thousand time more effective against rodents than traps and exterminators are.

The solution: MAKE AN ANTI-RAT SPRAY THAT SMELLS LIKE CAT PEE.
Lyme Disease's Unusual Suspects
Eric wu submitted, created time 1 year 1 month (sciencenow.sciencemag.org)
A new study challenges the widely held view that mice are the main animal reservoir for Lyme disease in the United States. The paper, published online this week in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B, shows that two shrew species are just as important and that chipmunks play a supporting role. Unless those species are taken into account, say researchers, efforts to control Lyme disease are doomed to fail.

Dutch biologist Marc van Roosmalen has expanded the list of known peccary species to four following his "discovery" of the giant peccary, aka Pecari maximus, in the basin of the Rio Aripuanã in the south eastern Amazon.
