THE EFFECTS OF GROUP VERSUS SINGLE HOUSING ON HOME CAGE BEHAVIOUR IN TWO STRAINS OF LABORATORY MICE
Studying the behavioural patterns of animals in their house may help to understand their needs, but there has been a little investigation of home-cage behaviours in commonly used inbred strains of mice such as C57BL/6 and DBA/2. Therefore, understanding

Murine models of renal disease: Possibilities and problems in studies using mutant mice [PDF]
The elucidation of the pathogenesis of human renal disease at the molecular level has been facilitated by the growing field of gene targeting and the development of mouse strains with single-gene deletions - the `knock-out' mice. Experimental nephrology,

Age-related thymic involution in C57BL/6J × DBA/2J recombinant-inbred mice maps to mouse chromosomes 9 and 10 [PDF]
A comprehensive analysis of initial thymus size and involution rate has not been quantitated for different genetic backgrounds of mice, thus genetic linkage analysis of thymic involution has not been possible. Here, we have used a mathematical method to analyze the age-related decline in thymocyte count in C57BL/6 and DBA/2 mice and have observed that ...

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 ...

Quantitative traits for the tail suspension test: automation, optimization, and BXD RI mapping [PDF]
Immobility in the tail suspension test (TST) is considered a model of despair in a stressful situation, and acute treatment with antidepressants reduces immobility. Inbred strains of mouse exhibit widely differing baseline levels of immobility in the TST

To confirm seizure susceptibility (SZS) quantitative trait loci (QTLs) on chromosome (chr) 15 identified previously using C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (D2) mice and to refine their genomic map position, we studied a set of three congenic strains in which overlapping segments of chr 15 from D2 were transferred onto the B6 background.

Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis, Mtb) infection, and it remains major life-threatening infectious diseases worldwide. Although Mtb has infected one-third of the present human population, only 5-10% of immunocompetent

Differences between NMRI and DBA/2J mice in the development of somites and susceptibility to methylnitrosourea-induced skeleton anomalies [PDF]
The development of DBA/2J mouse strain embryos is nearly 12 h - or 6 somite pairs - delayed as compared to the outbred NMRI mouse embryos of the same age on gestation days (GD) 8-12.

Chronic stress is linked to many human psychiatric disorders involving the prefrontal cortex (PFC). We performed a meta‐analysis of public transcriptional profiling data that showed that chronically stressed mice have less gene expression for glia and neural activity in the PFC. These findings mirror patterns seen in psychiatric patients.
