Optimization and verification of high‐fat diet formulation for establishing a rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We identified 45% HFD as the optimal formulation to establish a juvenile rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty. It elicits robust phenotypic (early vaginal opening, obesity), histological (advanced ovarian development), and endocrine (elevated HPG axis hormones) alterations, with leptin‐mediated GnRH secretion as a core mechanistic driver ...

One‐step generation of heritable mitochondrial DNA multiplex‐engineered rats using DddA‐derived cytosine base editor

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We established that mixed DdCBE microinjection is an efficient, heritable, and precise strategy for generating multiplex mtDNA mutant rats. This advancement significantly expands the utility of DdCBEs for mitochondrial disease modeling, providing a robust platform for exploring the pathogenic mechanisms of complex mtDNA mutations and developing ...
