Behavior and physiology in female Cricetulus barabensis are associated with the expression of circadian genes [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 The circadian clock regulates the behavior, physiology, and metabolism of mammals, and these characteristics, such as sleep-wake cycles, exercise capacity, and hormone levels, exhibit circadian rhythms.

Effects of dietary nutrients of the gut microbiota in the long‐tailed dwarf hamster (Cricetulus longicaudatus) [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionGut microbiota is a key factor in maintaining the dietary and metabolic homeostasis of small mammals. To explore the effect of diet on the gut microbiota of the long‐tailed dwarf hamster (Cricetulus longicaudatus), 16S rDNA high‐throughput sequencing ...

Fat accumulation in striped hamsters (Cricetulus barabensis) reflects the temperature of prior cold acclimation [PDF]
Frontiers in ZoologyBackground Proper adjustments of metabolic thermogenesis play an important role in thermoregulation in endotherm to cope with cold and/or warm ambient temperatures, however its roles in energy balance and fat accumulation remain uncertain.

Estrogen receptor 2 mediates intraspecific aggressive behaviors of the female Cricetulus barabensis in the estrous cycle [PDF]
Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2021 The social behavior mechanisms have not been thoroughly reported in the solitary female striped dwarf hamster (Cricetulus barabensis). In this study, the handling bag test and neutral arena measurements were used to detect the changes of aggression in

First genotoxicity study of Paraná river water from Argentina using cells from the clam Corbicula fluminea (Veneroida Corbiculidae) and Chinese hamster (Cricetulus griseus Rodentia, Cricetidae) K1 cells in the comet assay [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2008 High concentrations of xenobiotics from urban and industrial wastes have contributed to the contamination of many aquatic environments. We used the comet assay to evaluate the genotoxic potential of water collected from the River Paraná, which receives a
