SARS-CoV-2 virus infection of Peromyscus leucopus demonstrates that infection tolerance is not limited to agents for which deermice are reservoirs

Ana Milovic, Johannes S. Gach, Ioulia Chatzistamou…·Alan G. Barbour

This study infects deermice with SARS-CoV-2 to show infection tolerance extends to novel pathogens, with limited inflammation and effective immune control.

The infection-tolerant mammalian reservoir of Lyme disease and other zoonoses broadly counters the inflammatory effects of endotoxin

Gabriela Balderrama-Gutierrez, Ana Milovic, Vanessa J. Cook…·Alan G. Barbour

This study compares the inflammatory responses of two rodent species to LPS, finding differences in cytokine profiles and metabolic pathways that suggest infection tolerance mechanisms in the deermouse.
