Establishment and Characterization of a Newly Established Diabetic Gerbil Line. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 We aimed to selectively breed a spontaneous diabetic gerbil when a sub-line of inbred gerbil showed increased blood glucose levels was found recently. Then we investigated the characteristics including the serum insulin, triglyceride, cholesterol, leptin,

Gerbil: a fast and memory-efficient k-mer counter with GPU-support [PDF]
Algorithms for Molecular Biology, 2017 Background A basic task in bioinformatics is the counting of k-mers in genome sequences. Existing k-mer counting tools are most often optimized for small k < 32 and suffer from excessive memory resource consumption or degrading performance for large k ...

Distributed coding of duration in rodent prefrontal cortex during time reproduction
eLife, 2021 As we interact with the external world, we judge magnitudes from sensory information. The estimation of magnitudes has been characterized in primates, yet it is largely unexplored in nonprimate species.

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 We investigated the effects of pyridoxine deficiency on ischemic neuronal death in the hippocampus of gerbil (n = 5 per group). Serum pyridoxal 5′-phosphate levels were significantly decreased in Pyridoxine-deficient diet (PDD)-fed gerbils, while ...

Multiple Sources of Cholinergic Input to the Superior Olivary Complex
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021 The superior olivary complex (SOC) is a major computation center in the brainstem auditory system. Despite previous reports of high expression levels of cholinergic receptors in the SOC, few studies have addressed the functional role of acetylcholine in ...
