Reward-related behavioral paradigms for addiction research in the mouse: performance of common inbred strains. [PDF]
The mouse has emerged as a uniquely valuable species for studying the molecular and genetic basis of complex behaviors and modeling neuropsychiatric disease states.

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]
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

Working with Miraculous Mice: Mus musculus as a Model Organism
Abstract The laboratory mouse has been described as a “miracle” model organism, providing a window by which we may gain an understanding of ourselves. Since the first recorded mouse experiment in 1664, the mouse has become the most used animal model in biomedical research.

Glucose Homeostasis and Tissue Transcript Content of Insulin Signaling Intermediates in Four Inbred Strains of Mice: C57BL/6, C57BLKS/6, DBA/2, and 129X1 [PDF]
Abstract Transgenic mice phenotypes generally depend on the background strains used in their creation. To examine the effects of genetic background on insulin signaling, we analyzed glucose homeostasis in four inbred strains of mice [C57BL/6 (B6), C57BLKS/6 (KLS), DBA/2 (DBA), and 129X1] and quantitated mRNA content of insulin receptor ...

By identifying three simple statistical features that can represent sleep–wake stages in a 3D space, we developed a classification process that aligns with traditional definitions and the intuition of experts. Abstract Electroencephalogram (EEG) and electromyogram (EMG) are fundamental tools in sleep research.

Photon counting spectroscopic CT with dynamic beam attenuator [PDF]
Purpose: Photon counting (PC) computed tomography (CT) can provide material selective CT imaging at lowest patient dose but it suffers from suboptimal count rate. A dynamic beam attenuator (DBA) can help with count rate by modulating x-ray beam intensity such that the low attenuating areas of the patient receive lower exposure, and detector behind ...

Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal genetic neuromuscular disease. Lack of dystrophin in skeletal muscles leads to intrinsic weakness, injury, subsequent degeneration and fibrosis, decreasing contractile function. Dystropathology eventually presents in all inspiratory and expiratory muscles of breathing, severely curtailing their ...

Protecting oracle pl/sql source code from a dba user [PDF]
In this paper we are presenting a new way to disable DDL statements on some specific PL/SQL procedures to a dba user in the Oracle database. Nowadays dba users have access to a lot of data and source code even if they do not have legal permissions to see or modify them.

Several behavioral interventions, based on social enrichment and observational learning are applied in treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders. However, the mechanism of such modulatory effect and the safety of applied methods on individuals involved in ...
