Locomotor activity in the ischemic gerbil

Brain Research, 1993
Previous studies have shown that within 24 h after ischemic insult, gerbils exhibit an increase in locomotor activity. Because activity gradually diminishes to normal levels with repeated testing, it has been argued that this behavior represents a reversible or transient effect of ischemia.

Establishment of gerbil–mouse heterohybridoma secreting immunoglobulin of Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus)

Journal of Immunological Methods, 2011
Hybridomas, generated by fusing myeloma cells with B lymphocytes, secrete monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific for an antigen. To establish hybridomas that secrete Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) mAbs, we immunized gerbils with keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) and fused splenocytes from them with a non-secreting mouse myeloma cell line (P3-X63-

Taste aversion to sugars by the gerbil

Physiology & Behavior, 1982
Some conditioned taste aversion experiments were undertaken to determine how the gerbil responds to disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols. We observed the following: animals taught an aversion to 0.1 M sucrose generalized the avoidance to most sugars, the exception being galactitol; animals taught to avoid 0.01 M hydrochloric acid generalized the ...

Autoradiography of 14C-DOPA in gerbils

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1969
Abstract After injection of 14C-labelled DOPA following pretreatment with a peripheral L-DOPA decarboxylase inhibitor, Ro-4-4602 in mongolian gerbils, retention of radioactivity occurs in dopaminergic brain areas, the pancreas, epididymus and hair follicles. Labelling of the dopaminergic brain structures is maximal 1 hr after injection of DOPA.

Cholesterol metabolism in gnotobiotic gerbils

Lipids, 1982
AbstractGermfree gerbils were associated with a murine‐derived hexaflora which produced only minor changes in the primary bile acid pattern of rats. These hexaflora‐associated gerbils had relatively small ceca (4% of body weight) and reproduced well. Although serum cholesterol levels of both conventional and hexaflora‐associated gerbils increased in ...

The effects of selenium on Mongolian gerbils

Environmental Research, 1979
Abstract The effects of sodium selenite on male, Mongolian gerbils were evaluated for 30 weeks. Supplements of 0.00, 2.50, or 5.00 ppm were supplied through the drinking water. This addition resulted in decreased water consumptions by all the experimental groups.

Ultrastructure of the urethra of the Mongolian gerbil

World Journal of Urology, 2003
The urethra is the main port of entry of sexually transmitted pathogens. However, papers on the morphology of the urethra are scarce. The Mongolian gerbil is a rodent native of the Mongolia and China and has been utilized as a laboratory animal since the 1960s.

Adjunctive behavior in the Mongolian gerbil

Physiology & Behavior, 1978
Abstract In Experiment 1, only one of five food-deprived gerbils displayed schedule-induced polydipsia when 45 mg food pellets were delivered according to a fixed-time 60-sec food schedule. However, in Experiment 2, three of four gerbils developed schedule-induced wheel running on the fixed-time 60-sec food schedule.

The 'hairless' gerbil: a new mutant

Laboratory Animals, 1980
Although the animal looks bald, the smooth, warm skin is covered by fine stubble. The vibrissae also appear broken off short. The nails appear normal and the ventral scent gland and nipples are well developed. This female is fertile and has had several litters, but none of her offspring show the mutation.
