Use of hamster as a model to study diet-induced atherosclerosis

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2010
Golden-Syrian hamsters have been used as an animal model to assess diet-induced atherosclerosis since the early 1980s. Advantages appeared to include a low rate of endogenous cholesterol synthesis, receptor-mediated uptake of LDL cholesterol, cholesteryl

Distribution of the Cannabinoid Receptor Type 1 in the Brain of the Genetically Audiogenic Seizure-Prone Hamster GASH/Sal

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021
The endocannabinoid system modulates epileptic seizures by regulating neuronal excitability. It has become clear that agonist activation of central type I cannabinoid receptors (CB1R) reduces epileptogenesis in pre-clinical animal models of epilepsy. The

Bio F₁B hamster: a unique animal model with reduced lipoprotein lipase activity to investigate nutrient mediated regulation of lipoprotein metabolism

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2007
Background Bio F1B hamster is an inbred hybrid strain that is highly susceptible to diet-induced atherosclerosis. We previously reported that feeding a high fat fish oil diet to Bio F1B hamster caused severe hyperlipidaemia. In this study we compared the

An Oral Antiviral Combination Against Severe COVID‐19 Enabled by the Synergistic Mechanisms of Action of Auranofin and Remdesivir

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FDA‐approved anti‐inflammatory drug Auranofin inhibits SARS‐CoV‐2 replication by inhibiting viral Main protease activity and Spike processing required for viral entry. It shows strong synergy with nucleoside analogue Remdesivir, due to non‐overlapping mechanisms.
