Insights Into Complex Murine Models of Allergy and Anaphylaxis: The Central Role of IgE and Mast Cells in Advancing Human Therapies. [PDF]
Murine allergy model outcomes differ by sensitization route, allergen type, and mouse strain, influencing mechanisms such as IgE and mast cell involvement and the therapeutic relevance of each model. Understanding how experimental parameters shape outcomes is essential for selecting appropriate models and effectively translating findings to clinical ...

The Establishment of the C3H Inbred Strain of Mice for the Study of Spontaneous Carcinoma of the Mammary Gland [PDF]
become interested in the use of inbred strains of mice for the study of sponta neous neoplasia. This advance has been encouraging to geneticists, who have in sisted, with great reason, that intrinsic or genetic factors do play a very important role in ...

Toll-like receptor 4 is thought to have a primary role in host defense against Escherichia coli bladder colonization, based on mouse models of urinary tract infection using C3H/HeJ female mice. This strain carries a point mutation in the Tlr4 gene, which

Large-scale albuminuria screen for nephropathy models in chemically induced mouse mutants [PDF]
Background/Aim: Phenotype-driven screening of a great pool of randomly mutant mice and subsequent selection of animals showing symptoms equivalent to human kidney diseases may result in the generation of novel suitable models for the study of the ...

Analysis of the sex-specific variability of blood parameters in C3H inbred mice by using data from a long-term, high-throughput project [PDF]
Mice are important models for biomedical research by providing the possibility of standardizing genetic background and environmental conditions, which both affect phenotypic variability. Use of both sexes in experiments is strongly recommended because of possible differences in the outcome. However, sex-specific phenotypic variability is discussed with

Polyoma virus-induced osteosarcomas in inbred strains of mice: host determinants of metastasis. [PDF]
The mouse polyoma virus induces a broad array of solid tumors in mice of many inbred strains. In most strains tumors grow rapidly but fail to metastasize.

Although studies with inbred strains of mice have shown that infarct size is largely determined by the extent of collateral vessel connections between arteries in the brain that enable reperfusion of the ischemic territory, we have identified strain ...

ForestPMPlot: A Flexible Tool for Visualizing Heterogeneity Between Studies in Meta-analysis. [PDF]
Meta-analysis has become a popular tool for genetic association studies to combine different genetic studies. A key challenge in meta-analysis is heterogeneity, or the differences in effect sizes between studies.
