Integrative Genetic Analysis of Allergic Inflammation in the Murine Lung
AMERICAN JOURNAL OF RESPIRATORY CELL AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, 51(3), 436–445.
author keywords: allergic airway disease; systems genetics; gene expression quantitative trait loci
MeSH headings : Animals; Antigens, Dermatophagoides / immunology; Bronchial Hyperreactivity / immunology; Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus / metabolism; Disease Models, Animal; Gene Expression Regulation; Genetics; Hypersensitivity / immunology; Hypersensitivity / metabolism; Immunoglobulin E / blood; Inflammation; Lung / immunology; Lung / metabolism; Male; Mice; Phenotype; Quantitative Trait Loci; Respiratory Hypersensitivity / immunology

The results demonstrate that hallmark allergic airway disease phenotypes are associated with distinct genetic loci on Chrs 4 and 11, and that gene expression in the allergically inflamed lung is controlled by both cis and trans regulatory factors.

Functional diversification of vitamin D receptor paralogs in teleost fish after a whole genome duplication event
Endocrinology, 155(12), 4641–4654.
MeSH headings : Animals; Calcitriol / metabolism; Evolution, Molecular; Fish Proteins / genetics; Fish Proteins / metabolism; Gene Duplication; Genome; Nuclear Receptor Coactivators / metabolism; Oryzias; Receptors, Calcitriol / genetics; Receptors, Calcitriol / metabolism; Retinoid X Receptors / metabolism; Zebrafish
TL;DR:
The results imply that functional differences between VDRα and VDRβ occurred early in teleost evolution because they are conserved between distantly related species, and suggest that the observed differences may be associated with differential protein-protein interactions between the VDR paralogs and coactivators.

Accuracy of residential geocoding in the Agricultural Health Study
International Journal of Health Geographics, 13(1), 37.
author keywords: Geocoding; Positional error; Rural location; Environmental exposure assessment; Accuracy
MeSH headings : Agriculture / statistics & numerical data; Cohort Studies; Environmental Exposure / analysis; Environmental Exposure / statistics & numerical data; Female; Geographic Mapping; Health Status; Humans; Iowa / epidemiology; Male; North Carolina / epidemiology; Pesticides; Prospective Studies
TL;DR:
It is suggested that where E911 locations are available, they offer an improvement upon address-matched geocodes for rural addresses, and that exposure misclassification resulting from positional error can be minimized when known coordinates are available to test alternative data and methods.

A Pelomedusoid Turtle from the Paleocene-Eocene of Colombia Exhibiting Preservation of Blood Vessels and Osteocytes
JOURNAL OF HERPETOLOGY, 48(4), 461–465.
TL;DR:
The potential organic preservation of osteocytes and blood vessels for this specimen is demonstrated, indicating that preservation of soft tissue such as vessels and bone cells in the fossil record is independent of bone type, fossil site, or locality; and that it is even possible to occur in tropical depositional environments during a period of maximum global warming such as the Paleocene–Eocene.

Unexpected phenological responses of butterflies to the interaction of urbanization and geographic temperature
ECOLOGY, 95(9), 2613–2621.
author keywords: anthropogenic change; citizen science; global climate change; impervious surface; Lepidoptera; nonadditive effects; phenology; physiology; temperature; trait-based modeling
TL;DR:
Although shifts toward earlier phenology are typical of species' responses to either global climate change or urbanization, it was found that their interaction delayed several Ohio butterflies' first appearance and peak abundance phenology.

Soy but not bisphenol A (BPA) induces hallmarks of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and related metabolic co-morbidities in rats
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICOLOGY, 49, 209–218.
author keywords: Phytoestrogens; Genistein; Endocrine disruptors; Ovary; Development
MeSH headings : Animals; Benzhydryl Compounds / adverse effects; Diet / adverse effects; Endocrine Disruptors / adverse effects; Female; Ovary / drug effects; Ovary / pathology; Phenols / adverse effects; Polycystic Ovary Syndrome / chemically induced; Polycystic Ovary Syndrome / pathology; Pregnancy; Rats; Rats, Wistar; Soy Foods / adverse effects; Testosterone / blood
TL;DR:
Lifetime exposure to a soy diet, containing endocrine active phytoestrogens, but not developmental exposure to the endocrine disrupting monomer bisphenol A (BPA), can induce key features of PCOS in the rat, results which support the hypothesis that hormonally active diets may contribute to risk when consumed throughout gestation and post-natal life.

Limited sex-biased neural gene expression patterns across strains in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
BMC GENOMICS, 15.
author keywords: Sexual dimorphism; Sexual plasticity; Brain; Danio rerio; Sex; Gene expression; Transcriptome; RNA-sequencing; Gene coexpression network
MeSH headings : Animals; Brain / metabolism; Female; Fish Proteins / genetics; Fish Proteins / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation; Gene Regulatory Networks; Male; Molecular Sequence Data; Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis; Sequence Analysis, RNA; Sex Factors; Zebrafish / anatomy & histology; Zebrafish / classification; Zebrafish / genetics
