You may remember that I mentioned we had a mouse problem. Okay, that is a bit of an understatement. We have an infestation of mice. The exterminator has put out poison and we are seeing a decrease, but still hearing them in the attic at times.

The Navy Room (that is the official name of the spare bedroom, since we painted it navy blue) has started to smell funky. I went in there the other day to try and find the smell, but could not identify it precisely. However, there was a plant in the room that was dying, plus we kept the door shut, so my thought was that was the funky smell. Lindsey did not accept that, she wanted to clean out the entire room.

There are many different strains of mice, but until now, researchers have had only a single reference genome to use for all of them. That has changed with the release of new reference draft genomes for 16 of the most commonly used strains of lab mice.

#5     EXCLUSIVE: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE MOUSE WITH THE EAR ON ITS BACK?,More info:newsweek

You may have seen it in a textbook or on TV: a mouse with a human ear on its back. You might have thought that the mouse was genetically engineered, or deformed, or the result of mad scientists “playing God.” Twenty years ago, Harvard surgeons Joseph and his brother Charles Vacanti, along with MIT engineer Bob Langer, experimented with techniques to create human body parts in the lab. They implanted the shape of a human ear in the back of a mouse as part of research to better understand how they could help grow body parts for humans. They published their results in 1997. After BBC aired a documentary on tissue engineering, the world saw the bizarre animal: The Vacanti Mouse.

#4   Scientists Grow Mouse Pancreas Inside a Rat,More info:livescience

In a recent experiment to help out mice that were missing their pancreases, scientists grew new pancreases from mouse stem cells in the bodies of rats, and then transplanted those pancreases into the mice.

The researchers found that this technique could reverse diabetes in the mice, according to a new study. Moreover, this strategy of growing the organs of one species inside the body of another could one day help to produce transplantable human organs grown in large animals, such as pigs or sheep, the researchers said.

The work holds promise for alleviating the severe shortage of donated human organs, they said. “However, there is a much greater evolutionary distance between humans and pigs or sheep than there is between mice and rats, and this could create challenges,” said the study’s senior author, Hiromitsu Nakauchi, a stem cell biologist at the Stanford University School of Medicine in California. “So much more research needs to be done to ensure that this approach is both safe and effective.”

#2   Preble’s Meadow Jumping Mouse,More info:rockymountainwild

The Preble’s meadow jumping mouse is a tiny rodent that can only be found near the Front Range of Colorado and Wyoming. Biologists believe the species arrived in Colorado and Wyoming during the last ice age and remained after the glaciers receded. In the drier, post-glacial climate, the mouse was confined to stream-side ecosystems where moisture was plentiful.

In the last century, widespread habitat loss and fragmentation due to development, water diversions, overgrazing, water pollution, and gravel and sand mining resulted in a rapid decline of already rare Preble’s populations. Another principal threat to the Preble’s meadow jumping mouse is political in nature: special interest groups have aggressively voiced their interest in stripping Endangered Species Act protections from the Preble’s everywhere it lives.
