Relationship between fecal hormone concentrations and reproductive success in captive pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis)
JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, 93(3), 759–770.
author keywords: captive breeding; conception; fecal glucocorticoids; hormones; lactation; litter size; mating; progestagens; stress; reproduction
TL;DR:
Investigating patterns of fecal progestagen and glucocorticoid excretion in females during mating, gestation, and lactation and identifying hormonal relationships to reproductive success found higher concentrations during the breeding season were associated with reduced conception rates and survival of subsequent litters.

2012 journal article
Production of prostaglandin E-2 in response to infection with modified vaccinia Ankara virus
VIROLOGY, 428(2), 146–155.
author keywords: Poxvirus; Vaccine; Lipid mediator; Cyclooxygenase-2; Cytosolic phospholipase A(2); NF-kappa B
MeSH headings : Animals; Arachidonic Acid / metabolism; Cell Line; Cyclooxygenase 2 / genetics; Cyclooxygenase 2 / metabolism; Dinoprostone / metabolism; Humans; Mice; Vaccinia / enzymology; Vaccinia / metabolism; Vaccinia / virology; Vaccinia virus / genetics; Vaccinia virus / physiology; Viral Proteins / genetics; Viral Proteins / metabolism
TL;DR:
In this study, PGE₂ production in vitro by cells infected with the poxvirus vaccine strain, modified vaccinia Ankara virus (MVA), is investigated and it is demonstrated that MVA induced the release of AA from infected cells, and this was, most unusually, independent of host cytosolic phospholipase A₁ activity.

Environmental and Organismal Predictors of Intraspecific Variation in the Stoichiometry of a Neotropical Freshwater Fish
PLOS ONE, 7(3).
MeSH headings : Animals; Body Size; Ecosystem; Environment; Fishes / physiology; Fresh Water
TL;DR:
It is suggested that spatial variability in elemental availability is more strongly correlated with organismal stoichiometry than organismal traits, and suggests that the stoichiometric of carnivores may not be completely buffered from environmental variability.

Effect of Low-Head Lock-and-Dam Structures on Migration and Spawning of American Shad and Striped Bass in the Cape Fear River, North Carolina
TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY, 141(2), 402–413.
TL;DR:
E egg distribution and stage of development suggested that most of the American shad spawning took place downstream from the lowermost structure, LD-1, while the probability of capturing a stage-1American shad egg was strongly dependent on water temperature and hour of egg coll...

TL;DR:
A validated mouse model was used for a systems genetics analysis geared toward detecting genetic predictors of TD in human patients and identified ~50 genes that are expected to have high prior probabilities for association with haloperidol-induced TD.

TL;DR:
The most effective antibiofilm compound had significant effects when used in conjunction with several standard antibiotics against resistant bacteria and was found to maintain the same low level of toxicity as when acting alone, bolstering its candidacy for further testing as an adjuvant.
