Characterization of the blood–brain barrier in genetically diverse laboratory mouse strains

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2021
Background Genetic variation in a population has an influence on the manifestation of monogenic as well as multifactorial disorders, with the underlying genetic contribution dependent on several interacting variants.

The Converging Effects of Different Categories of Antidepressants on the Brain: A Systematic Meta‐Analysis of Public Transcriptional Profiling Data From the Hippocampus and Cortex

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 7, July 2026.
Understanding the congruent effects of different types of antidepressant treatments on sensitive brain regions, such as the hippocampus and cortex, can highlight essential mechanisms of action. We used a systematic meta‐analysis of public transcriptional profiling datasets to identify genes and functional gene sets that are differentially expressed ...

Dissection of a quantitative trait locus for PR interval duration identifies Tnni3k as a novel modulator of cardiac conduction.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Atrio-ventricular conduction disease is a common feature in Mendelian rhythm disorders associated with sudden cardiac death and is characterized by prolongation of the PR interval on the surface electrocardiogram (ECG). Prolongation of the PR interval is

Conjoined Parasitic Twins (Cephalo‐Thoracopagus Parasiticus) in a Free Ranging Northern Bat (Eptesicus nilssonii): A Micro‐CT Anatomic and Genetic Survey

open access: yesAnatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The detailed anatomical situation of male stillborn cephalo‐thoracopagus twins in a wild ranging northern bat (Eptesicus nilssonii) is described by means of full body micro‐CT scans in high resolution with three‐dimensional computational reconstruction.

Sex Differences in Metabolite–Immune Circuits of Neuroinflammation

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 338, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Sex is a fundamental yet underexplored determinant of human neuroinflammation. Across autoimmune, neurodegenerative, and post‐infectious neurological syndromes, males and females exhibit consistent differences in disease vulnerability, progression, and immune tone.

Reactions to spatial and nonspatial change in two inbred strains of mice: Further evidence supporting the hippocampal dysfunction hypothesis in the DBA/2 strain [PDF]

open access: yesPsychobiology, 1995
Mice belonging to the inbred C57BL/6 and DBA/2 strains were repeatedly exposed to a given spatial configuration of five objects contained in an open field. Locomotor activity, habituation of exploration, and reactivity to the displacement of some objects (spatial change) and to the substitution of a familiar object by a new one (nonspatial change) were

Helminth Parasites of Conventionally Maintained Laboratory Mice: II- Inbred Strains with an Adaptation of the Anal Swab Technique

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1998
Worm burdens recovered from inbred mice strains, namely C57Bl/6, C57Bl/10, CBA, BALB/c, DBA/2 and C3H/He, conventionally maintained in two institutional animal houses in the State of Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil, were analyzed and compared, regarding their

Identification of Novel Potential Type 2 Diabetes Genes Mediating β-Cell Loss and Hyperglycemia Using Positional Cloning

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex metabolic disease regulated by an interaction of genetic predisposition and environmental factors. To understand the genetic contribution in the development of diabetes, mice varying in their disease susceptibility were

Chlamydial induction of hydrosalpinx in 11 strains of mice reveals multiple host mechanisms for preventing upper genital tract pathology. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The female lower genital tract is constantly exposed to microbial infection, some of which can ascend to and cause pathology such as hydrosalpinx in the upper genital tract, which can affect fertility.
