Absence of anti-acetylcholine receptor antibodies in Praomys (mastomys) natalensis

open access: yes, 1981
It has been suggested in the past that Praomys (Mastomys) natalensis might be an animal model for human myasthenia gravis. This suggestion was based on the occurrence of thymomas and autoantibody to striated muscle in this animal species.

MHC diversity in Mastomys.

open access: yes
West African Mastomys rodents are the primary reservoir of the zoonotic Lassa virus (LASV). The virus causes haemorrhagic Lassa fever and considerable mortality in humans. To date, the role of Mastomys immunogenetics in resistance to, and persistence of,

Prolactin and testosterone on growth and morphology of the prostate in the mastomys (Plaomys (mastomys) natalensis) of both sexes.

open access: yesThe Japanese journal of animal reproduction, 1990
The main factor to maintain or growth of prostate is a testosterone. It is widelyaccepted that testosterone is necessary to be converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to express its effect on the prostate. The 5α-reductase activity is reportedly under the control of the prolactin (PRL) and enhanced by testosterone and PRL, though PRL in the regulation ...
