Metformin and dietary restriction modulate m6A to extend lifespan of rotifer, highlighting MTR as a central regulator of aging through methionine metabolism. ABSTRACT Metformin, a medication primarily used to treat diabetes, has gained attentions for its potential antiaging properties.

Anatomic correlates of strial presbycusis in recombinant inbred mouse strains [PDF]
This project attempts to identify anatomic features that predict the range of the ‘normal’ endocochlear potential in young inbred mice. Cochlear lateral wall histologic metrics were compared in recombinant inbred (RI) mouse strains formed from BALB/c and

Abstract Background Ascorbic acid 2‐glucoside (AA2G) is a stabilized form of ascorbic acid and a potent antioxidant. Ascorbic acid is present in the testes and epididymis and helps maintain the physiological integrity of reproductive organs. Its properties have been utilized to protect spermatozoa of different species from oxidative stress.

Innate immune basis for rift valley fever susceptibility in mouse models [PDF]
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) leads to varied clinical manifestations in animals and in humans that range from moderate fever to fatal illness, suggesting that host immune responses are important determinants of the disease severity. We investigated the

We report an individual with mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB and chronic pancytopenia. Hematological studies in a mouse model revealed microcytic anemia and decreased monocyte count. Hence, pancytopenia is thought to be secondary to mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB, and we suggest that a complete blood count should be included in the clinical ...

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 ...

On the Identifiability of Genetic Parameters for Growth in Mice With a Massively Deep Pedigree
ABSTRACT In models with direct and maternal genetic effects, structural features of the data are a potential source of bias and low accuracy of estimates for genetic covariance parameters. One of the well‐known reasons for such poor practical identifiability is the lack of dams with own observations.

Evaluation of an outbred mouse model for Francisella tularensis vaccine development and testing.
Francisella tularensis (Ft) is a biothreat agent for which there is no FDA-approved human vaccine. Currently, there are substantial efforts underway to develop both vaccines and the tools to assess these vaccines.
