ForestPMPlot: A Flexible Tool for Visualizing Heterogeneity Between Studies in Meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Meta-analysis has become a popular tool for genetic association studies to combine different genetic studies. A key challenge in meta-analysis is heterogeneity, or the differences in effect sizes between studies.

Animal models of hypertension and concurrent organs injury

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Although hypertension is a frequently seen chronic condition across the world, its exact cause remains unclear. Animal models are beneficial for clarifying the pathogenic mechanism of hypertension and examining new treatments. An optimal animal model for studies on hypertension must well mimic human‐like hemodynamics and pathophysiological structural ...

Hyper- and hypo-responsiveness to dietary fat and cholesterol among inbred mice: searching for level and variability genes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
A concept proposed by Berg (Berg, K. 1989. Arteriosclerosis. 9: I-50-I-58) is that a combination of level and variability genes determine an individual's overall plasma lipid levels and atherosclerotic risk.

A Combined Adjuvant TF–Al Consisting of TFPR1 and Aluminum Hydroxide Augments Strong Humoral and Cellular Immune Responses in Both C57BL/6 and BALB/c Mice

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
TFPR1 is a novel adjuvant for protein and peptide antigens, which has been demonstrated in BALB/c mice in our previous studies; however, its adjuvanticity in mice with different genetic backgrounds remains unknown, and its adjuvanticity needs to be ...

Male mice emit distinct ultrasonic vocalizations when the female leaves the social interaction arena. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Adult male mice emit large number of complex ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) when interacting with adult females. Call numbers and call categories differ greatly among inbred mouse strains.

Evaluation of a modified triple‐combination anesthesia using dexmedetomidine in mice

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Development of a modified ketamine‐free anesthetic (dMMB) using dexmedetomidine. To improve the safety and recovery profile of conventional MMB, we developed dMMB by replacing medetomidine with dexmedetomidine. This ketamine‐free formulation showed comparable anesthetic depth and enhanced thermoregulation, avoiding unnecessary isomers for safer use ...

Behavior Decoding Delineates Seizure Microfeatures and Associated Sudden Death Risks in Mouse Models of Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Behavior and motor manifestations are distinctive yet often overlooked features of epileptic seizures. Seizures can result in transient disruptions in motor control, often organized into specific behavioral sequences that can inform seizure types, onset zones, and outcomes.

Effects of inbreeding and genetic modification on Aedes aegypti larval competition and adult energy reserves

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2010
Background Genetic modification of mosquitoes offers a promising strategy for the prevention and control of mosquito-borne diseases. For such a strategy to be effective, it is critically important that engineered strains are competitive enough to serve ...

Detection and Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci that Determine Responsiveness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Exposure to 70% N2O evokes a robust antinociceptive effect in C57BL/6 (B6) but not in DBA/2 (D2) inbred mice. This study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) in the mouse genome that might determine responsiveness to N2O.

Placentophagia in Nonpregnant Nulliparous Mice: A Genetic Investigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
The genetic influence on the response of nonpregnant nulliparous mice to foster placenta was investigated. Two highly inbred strains (BALB/cBy and C57BL/6By), their F1 hybrids, a backcross generation, and seven recombinant-inbred strains derived from the
