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 ...

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
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
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 ...

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

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 ...
