A Homolog Pentameric Complex Dictates Viral Epithelial Tropism, Pathogenicity and Congenital Infection Rate in Guinea Pig Cytomegalovirus. [PDF]
In human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), tropism to epithelial and endothelial cells is dependent upon a pentameric complex (PC). Given the structure of the placenta, the PC is potentially an important neutralizing antibody target antigen against congenital ...

Distribution and Excretion of BisGMA in Guinea Pigs [PDF]
Bisphenol-A-glycidyldimethacrylate (BisGMA) is used in many resin-based dental materials. It was shown in vitro that BisGMA was released into the adjacent biophase from such materials during the first days after placement.

Mammalian cloning via SCNT is limited by several epigenetic barriers. Kdm4d/Kdm5b overexpression plus TSA treatment overcomes epigenetic barriers during pre‐implantation development, while tetraploid complementation replaces defective extraembryonic lineages to bypass H3K27me3 imprinting loss to overcome epigenetic barriers in post‐implantation ...

Guinea pig model for evaluating the potential public health risk of swine and avian influenza viruses. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The influenza viruses circulating in animals sporadically transmit to humans and pose pandemic threats. Animal models to evaluate the potential public health risk potential of these viruses are needed.

Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...

Cloning and characterization of the hamster and guinea pig nicotinic acid receptors
In this study, we present the identification and characterization of hamster and guinea pig nicotinic acid receptors. The hamster receptor shares ∼80–90% identity with the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of human, mouse, and rat receptors. The guinea
