Cholesterol Metabolism in the Gerbil
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1962 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.

Demographic response of the Gambian Gerbil to seasonal changes in Savannah fallow fields
Folia Oecologica, 2019 The Savannah gerbil, Gerbilliscus gambianus (Muridae: Gerbillinae) is important to the ecological relations of the dry grassland ecosystem of West Africa, as well as, being a zoonotic agent of human diseases and potential crop pest.

Bulletin of the Psychonomic Society, 1973 Lick rates in infant and adult gerbils were measured for water under 12, 24, and 48 h of deprivation, and for 4%, 16%, and 32% sucrose solutions, under 24 h of deprivation. Mean lick rates were found to be independent of sex, level of deprivation, and fluid consumed. Mean lick rates were affected by the age of the Ss.

Delayed treatment with nimesulide reduces measures of oxidative stress following global ischemic brain injury in gerbils [PDF]
, 2003 Metabolism of arachidonic acid by cyclooxygenase is one of the primary sources of reactive oxygen species in the ischemic brain. Neuronal overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 has recently been shown to contribute to neurodegeneration following ischemic ...
