Mastomys Species as Model Systems for Infectious Diseases [PDF]
Replacements of animal models by advanced in vitro systems in biomedical research, despite exceptions, are currently still not satisfactory in reproducing the whole complexity of pathophysiological mechanisms that finally lead to disease.

Dose-Dependent Prophylactic Efficacy of Filarial Antigens Glutathione-S-Transferase and Abundant Larval Transcript-2 against Brugia malayi Challenge in Mastomys. [PDF]
Objective. To identify the most effective dose of filarial rBmALT‐2 and rWbGST alone or in combination against B. malayi infection in vitro and in vivo. Methods. Mastomys (n = 5–7/group) received intramuscular (i.m.) injection with three different doses (25, 50, and 100 μg) of rBmALT‐2 or rWbGST, either alone or in combination with alum as the adjuvant.

Localization of Brugia malayi (sub-periodic) adults in different organs of Mastomys coucha and its influence on microfilaraemia and host antibody response [PDF]
Lymphatic filariasis caused by nematode parasites Wuchereria bancrofti or Brugia malayi is a spectral disease and produces wide range of immune responses and varying levels ofmicrofilaraemia in infected individuals.

New Insights Into the Evolution of Immune Adaptors in Murid Rodents. [PDF]
TIR domain‐containing adaptors were evolved under purifying selection in murine. Positively selected sites were identified in Mal and Myd88 genes. Reduced genetic diversity of each adaptor gene was observed in two rat populations. Shared polymorphisms were common phenomena in rat adaptors.

The role of vitamin A was evaluated for its chemotherapeutic and chemoprophylactic action against Acanthocheilonema viteae infection in Mastomys coucha. Vitamin A was administered for 10 days, five days before infection and five days post infection.

Genetic Regulation of Border Zone Formation in Female Mastomys (Praomys coucha) Adrenal Cortex [PDF]
The unique border zone between the zona fasciculata and z. reticularis of the female adrenal cortex is formed in the wild-colored inbred mastomys (Praomys coucha) strain, MWC, but never in the chamois-colored inbred strain, MCC. This clear strain-specific trait was genetically analyzed using F1, F2, and backcross progenies produced between MWC and MCC.

Serum Biochemical Values in Two Inbred Strains of Mastomys (Praomys coucha).
Serum samples collected from 119 (72 male and 47 female) mastomys (Praomys coucha) of 2 specific-pathogen-free inbred strains (RI4 and RI7) were analyzed for 12 serum biochemical parameters. Sex-related differences (p < 0.01) were noted in alkaline phosphatase and glucose; the both higher in females than in males.
