Of Bombs and Boats and Mice and Men: A Random tour through some scaling laws [PDF]
A trip through some of the standard examples of dimensional analysis and scaling, with further thoughts on yacht prices, growing up, mice, bears and marsupials.

The genetic background of mice has various influences on the efficacy of physical exercise, as well as adult neurogenesis in the hippocampus. In this study, we investigated the basal level of hippocampal neurogenesis, as well as the effects of treadmill ...

Detection and Tracking of Multiple Mice Using Part Proposal Networks [PDF]
The study of mouse social behaviours has been increasingly undertaken in neuroscience research. However, automated quantification of mouse behaviours from the videos of interacting mice is still a challenging problem, where object tracking plays a key role in locating mice in their living spaces.

Effect of natural genetic variation on enhancer selection and function. [PDF]
The mechanisms by which genetic variation affects transcription regulation and phenotypes at the nucleotide level are incompletely understood. Here we use natural genetic variation as an in vivo mutagenesis screen to assess the genome-wide effects of ...

Does tolerance to ethanol-induced ataxia explain the sensitized response to ethanol?
Under conditions of repeated exposure to ethanol, a sensitized locomotor stimulant response develops in some strains of mice. It has been hypothesized that the sensitized response is a consequence of tolerance development to the sedative/incoordinating ...

57Fe enrichment in mice for \b{eta}-thalassaemia studies via Mossbauer spectroscopy of blood samples [PDF]
In this work, wild-type and heterozygous \b{eta}-thalassaemic mice were enriched with 57Fe through gastrointestinal absorption to characterize in more details the iron complexes appeared in the measured Mossbauer spectra. The 57Fe enrichment method was validated and Mossbauer spectra were obtained at 80K from blood samples from wild-type and \b{eta ...

The same but different: impact of animal facility sanitary status on a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
The gut-brain axis has emerged as a key player in the regulation of brain function and cognitive health. Gut microbiota dysbiosis has been observed in preclinical models of Alzheimer's disease and patients. Manipulating the composition of the gut microbiota enhances or delays neuropathology and cognitive deficits in mouse models.

Normal spatial learning and improved spatial working memory in mice (mus musculus) lacking dopamine d4 receptors [PDF]
Dopamine terminals in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex modulate cognitive processes such as spatial learning and working memory. Because dopamine D4 receptors are expressed in these brain areas we have analyzed mutant mice lacking this receptor ...

Compared to BALB/c mice, inbred C57BL/6 mice are more susceptible to developing fatty streak atherosclerotic lesions when fed a cholesterol-rich diet containing taurocholate. We examined the metabolic basis for the taurocholate requirement.
