Biogeographic history of the Late Pleistocene and Holocene European small hamsters (subfamily Cricetinae) [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe prevailing paleobiogeographic hypothesis suggests that many steppe and tundra-steppe taxa currently found in Central Asia expanded into Europe during Pleistocene glacial periods, when open habitats dominated. However, previous studies have shown that

The complete mitogenome of Sokolov’s Dwarf Hamster (Cricetulus sokolovi) and implication of phylogenetic status [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 There is still an obvious lack of information on Sokolov's Dwarf Hamster (Cricetulus sokolovi) which belongs to subfamily Cricetinae because the species is only rarely found in Gobi desert.

Total-evidence phylogeny reveals recent crown group radiation and biogeographical history of hamsters [PDF]
BMC BiologyBackground The systematics of extant hamsters (Cricetinae) have been increasingly clarified, due to advances in molecular phylogenetics. In contrast, their relationships with their fossil relatives have remained relatively unclear.

Role of the route of leukotrienes in an experimental model of oral mucositis induced by 5-fluorouracil [PDF]
Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2017 Purpose: To investigate the participation of cysteinyl leukotrienes in the pathophysiology of oral mucositis. Methods: Oral mucositis was induced in hamsters using 5-fluorouracil (5-FU; 60 and 40 mg/kg; i.p., on days 1 and 2, respectively, and with ...
