Sex‐dependent effects of environmental enrichment on mood‐related behaviors, central and peripheral BDNF, and adrenal catecholamine enzymes in mice

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, April 2026.
Abstract Housing conditions, particularly environmental enrichment (EE), can influence experimental outcomes and welfare. While EE is generally regarded as beneficial, a male bias exists in research supporting this. This study investigated whether sex differences exist in levels of BDNF in the brain and peripheral tissues in environmentally enriched ...

Genetic Variation in the Magnitude and Longevity of the IgG Subclass Response to a Diphtheria-Tetanus-Acellular Pertussis (DTaP) Vaccine in Mice

open access: yesVaccines, 2019
The type of IgG subclasses induced by vaccination is an important determinant of vaccine efficacy because the IgG subclasses vary in their biological function.

A Novel Brain Penetrable Nanocarrier Delivers Brain‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor to Treat Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 1, 9 January 2026.
A novel blood‐brain barrier‐penetrating terpolymer nanoparticle to deliver brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is designed. The BDNF‐TPN significantly enhances BDNF accumulation in the brain following intravenous injection, reduces apoptosis and neuroinflammation, thus promoting neuronal survival and ...

Sex differences in the physiological response to acute anterior cruciate ligament overuse

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 1, Page 297-316, 1 January 2026.
Abstract figure legend With equivalent in vivo fatigue loading of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), females accumulate more tissue damage and mount a slower reparative response than males, when the applied loads between sexes are equivalent. By contrast, males accumulate less tissue damage and mount a robust reparative response that includes ...

Experimental Models and Molecular Pathogenesis: An Integrated Review of Alopecia

open access: yesDermatologic Therapy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
A disconnect between mechanistic discovery and the physiological relevance of preclinical models fundamentally hampers the development of effective therapies for alopecia. This review critically bridges the pathogenic underpinnings of major hair loss disorders—androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, telogen effluvium, and chemotherapy‐induced anagen ...

Genetic factors at the enterocyte level account for variations inintestinal cholesterol absorption efficiency among inbred strains of mice1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
Interindividual and interstrain variations in cholesterol absorptionefficiency occur in humans and animals. We investigated physiological biliaryand small intestinal factors that might determine variations in cholesterolabsorption efficiency among inbred

Generation and Standardized, Systemic Phenotypic Analysis of Pou3f3L423P Mutant Mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Increased levels of blood plasma urea were used as phenotypic parameter for establishing novel mouse models for kidney diseases on the genetic background of C3H inbred mice in the phenotype-driven Munich ENU mouse mutagenesis project.

Susceptibility of inbred mice to Leishmania major infection: genetic analysis of macrophage activation and innate resistance to disease in individual progeny of P/J (susceptible) and C3H/HeN (resistant) mice [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1990
We tested the possibility that two phenotypic traits, defective activation of macrophage antileishmanial activities and susceptibility to infection with Leishmania major, were controlled by the same gene. We used P/J (susceptible) and C3H/HeN (resistant) mice to breed F1, backcross (Bx), and F2 mice that were tested individually for both traits, each ...

Adipocyte‐specific ablation of plakoglobin in mice does not affect adiposity but results in sexual‐dimorphic effects on weight gain

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 24, December 2025.
Abstract The main transcriptional coactivator of the WNT pathway, β‐catenin, is a well‐established regulator of adipogenesis and fat expansion, but our knowledge of how other members of the catenin family participate in adipogenesis remains incomplete. Previous studies have elucidated a role for the β‐catenin homolog, plakoglobin, in the regulation of ...

Caracterização biológica de clones das cepas Y, CL e MR de Trypanosoma cruzi em camundongos C3H isogênicos Biological characterization of Trypanosoma cruzi clones from Y, CL and MR strains in C3H inbred mice

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1988
Dez clones isolados das cepas Y, CL e MR foram caracterizados segundo infectividade das culturas, curvas de parasitemia, polimorfismo e mortalidade em camundongos C3H isogênicos.
