In Mongolian gerbils, bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) for several minutes induces ischemia, due to an incomplete circle of Willis, resulting in delayed neuronal cell death in the Cornet d'Ammon 1 (CA1) region of the hippocampus ...

The gerbil is usually nonaggressive and is one of the easiest rodents to maintain and handle. Its disposition, curious nature, relative freedom from naturally occurring infectious diseases, and adaptability to its environment have contributed to its popularity as a laboratory animal. Gerbils are found in deserts and semiarid geographical regions of the

Cholesterol Metabolism in the Gerbil
SummaryThe metabolism of C14-cholesterol has been studied in the gerbil. At the end of 14 days, 60% of the radioactivity, originally administered as cholesterol, was excreted. Of this, 90% appeared in feces and 10% in urine. The radioactivity in feces was found predominantly in the bile acid fraction.

A depletable pool of adenosine in area CA1 of the rat hippocampus [PDF]
Adenosine plays a major modulatory and neuroprotective role in the mammalian CNS. During cerebral metabolic stress, such as hypoxia or ischemia, the increase in extracellular adenosine inhibits excitatory synaptic transmission onto vulnerable neurons via
