Filarial infections of "Mastomys natalensis" and their relevance for experimental chemotherapy
Acta tropica, 1981Experimental filarial infections of Mastomys natalensis, strain GRA Giessen, with Litomosoides carinii, Dipetalonema viteae, Brugia malayi (subperiodic), and Brugia pahangi were compared. Mean prepatent periods of 52, 57, 107, and 73 days p.i. were observed after subcutaneous inoculation of 40, 50, 85, and 70 infective larvae of L. carinii, D.

Mastomys natalensis as an experimental host for Leishmania mexicana mexicana
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1978Young multimammate rats (Mastomys natalensis) can be readily infected when inoculated intradermally with the amastigotes of Leishmania mexicana mexicana. Lesions appear at the site of inoculation in the second week of infection and continue to increase in size for the first month; amastigotes can be detected during this period.

A renal tumour of the nephroblastoma type inPraomys (Mastomys) natalensis
Experientia, 19745 nephroblastomes ont ete observes dans une serie de 14Praomys (Mastomys) natalensis. Une activite pseudocholinesterasique diffuse a ete mise en evidence dans ces tumeurs, tandis que dans le parenchyme renal normal, cette activite est localisee dans la partie terminale des ...

Experimental Prostatitis in Female Mastomys natalensis – a Preliminary Report
Urologia Internationalis, 2010Female Mastomys natalensis were inoculated with a suspension of Klebsiella pneumoniae into the bladder. All animals developed prostatitis without urinary tract infection between the 9th and the 12th day after inoculation. 104––105 CFU of K. pneumoniae per gram prostatic tissue could be cultivated.

Patterns of Neoplastic and Nonneoplastic Diseases of Praomys (Mastomys) Natalensis
1975We wish to introduce a unique animal, the mastomys, which is not well known to the scientific coummunity. Mastomys develop certain diseases that constitute suitable animal models for study and experimentation on 1) chemotherapy of immunological disorders, and 2) tumorigenesis in such immunological disorders.

On Dipetalonema viteae infection of Mastomys natalensis.
Tropenmedizin und Parasitologie, 1979Experimental infections were carried out with the tissue-dwelling filaria Dipetalonema viteae using the argasid tick Ornithodorus moubata as the intermediate and the multimammate rat Mastomys natalensis (Strain GRA Giessen) as the final host. The optimum infective dose was found to be 50 third-stage larvae, which produced patent infections and the ...

Malignant Argyrophilic Gastric Carcinoids of Praomys (Mastomys) natalensis
Science, 1969Cells of carcinoid tumors which arise in the glandular stomach of old male and female Praomys ( Mastomys ) natalensis contain argyrophil granules when tissues fixed in formalin are colored with solutions of silver salts.

Association of autoantibodies and pathological changes in aged Praomys (Mastomys) natalensis
Clinical Immunology and Immunopathology, 1982An attempt is made to relate the presence of autoantibodies to pathological changes in aged Mastomys. It appeared that a direct relationship between one of the thymic changes (atrophy, hyperplasia, or neoplasia) and autoantibody formation was doubtful.

["Keratoacanthomas" in mastomys natalensis (author's transl)].
Archives for dermatological research = Archiv fur dermatologische Forschung, 197654 Tumors of Mastomys natalensis (GRA Giessen), described in the literature as "Keratoacanthomas" were investigated by light and electron microscopy. They are induced by a virus of the Papova group. Their histogenesis and their course are very different from human keratoacanthoma. The results reveal problems related to experimental animal tumour models

Effect of ivermectin on filariae ofMastomys natalensis
Parasitology Research, 1990The efficacy of ivermectin (Iv) was evaluated against four species of filariae, Litomosoides carinii, Acanthocheilonema viteae, Brugia pahangi and Brugia malayi in Mastomys natalensis. Animals with patent infections, induced with L3 larvae, by intravenous (iv) infusion of the respective microfilariae (Mf) (5 x 10(4) Mf per animal) or by intraperitoneal
