Bone Marrow Response to Acute and Chronic Trypanosoma congolense Infection in Multimammate Rats (Mastomys coucha)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2001
The femoral bone marrow of multimammate rats (n=90), aged 3-8 weeks, experimentally infected with different doses of Trypanosoma congolense was examined by light and electron microscopy. Some animals died from trypanosomosis, but groups of 10 were killed at 4-8, 9-16, 20-24, 30, 40, 50 and 60 days post-infection (dpi).

Sequence analysis of cDNA encoding follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone β-subunits in the Mastomys (Praomys coucha)

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2004
To examine the molecular basis of efficient superovulation in the Mastomys (Praomys coucha), the cDNA sequences of the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) beta-subunits were determined and compared with those of other mammals.

Anti-inflammatory BmAFI of Brugia malayi modulates IgE, histamine and histamine receptor responses in Mastomys coucha

Acta Tropica, 2013
We recently reported that BmAFI, an anti-inflammatory fraction of Brugia malayi adult worm supports parasite development in the hostile peritoneal cavity (p.c.) of Mastomys coucha through a modified Th2 type of response that includes IL-13 and IgE response and anti-inflammatory IL-10 cytokine milieu.

Sensitization with anti-inflammatory BmAFI of Brugia malayi allows L3 development in the hostile peritoneal cavity of Mastomys coucha

Acta Tropica, 2011
Filarial parasites survive by inducing tolerance in host but the antigens and mechanisms involved are not clear. Recently we found that BmAFI, a Sephadex G-200 eluted fraction of Brugia malayi adult worm extract, stimulates IL-10 release from THP-1 cells.

IgG subclasses of the multimammate rat, Mastomys coucha: isolation and characterization of IgG1 and IgG2.

Journal of experimental animal science, 1994
The objective of the study was to characterize the IgG-system of Mastomys coucha and to provide antibodies specific for IgG subclasses of this animal species. Serum proteins binding to protein A at pH 8.0 could be eluted in two distinct peaks at pH 7.5 - 6.2 and pH 5.0 - 3.9. The fractions were analysed by SDS-PAGE and immunoelectrophoresis. Both tests

Effects of lactation on the border zone formation in the female mastomys (Praomys coucha) adrenal cortex.

Acta anatomica, 1992
Adrenocortical zonation and especially border zone formation were investigated in relation to reproduction in female mastomys of the wild-colored inbred strain (MWC). The adrenal weight and the whole thickness of the cortex remained relatively constant throughout pregnancy, delivery and lactation.

Fertilization of oocytes and birth of normal pups following intracytoplasmic injection with spermatids in mastomys (Praomys coucha).

Biology of reproduction, 2003
The mastomys is a small laboratory rodent that is native to Africa. Although it has been used for research concerning reproductive biology, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection are very difficult in mastomys because of technical problems, such as inadequate sperm capacitation and large sperm heads.
