A comparative analysis of the intestinal metagenomes present in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) and humans (Homo sapiens) [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2012
Background Guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) is an important model for human intestinal research. We have characterized the faecal microbiota of 60 guinea pigs using Illumina shotgun metagenomics, and used this data to compile a gene catalogue of its ...

Guinea pig apolipoprotein C-II: expression in E. coli, functional studies of recombinant wild-type and mutated variants, and distribution on plasma lipoproteins

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
Guinea pig apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II) lacks four amino acid residues in the amino-terminal, lipid-binding part compared to apoC-II from other mammalian species (Andersson et al. 1991. J. Biol. Chem. 266: 4074-4080).

5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) cellular sequestration during chronic exposure delays 5-HT3 receptor resensitization due to Its subsequent release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The serotonergic synapse is dynamically regulated by serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)) with elevated levels leading to the down-regulation of the serotonin transporter and a variety of 5-HT receptors, including the 5-HT type-3 (5-HT(3)) receptors ...
