Behavior Decoding Delineates Seizure Microfeatures and Associated Sudden Death Risks in Mouse Models of Epilepsy. [PDF]
Objective Behavior and motor manifestations are distinctive yet often overlooked features of epileptic seizures. Seizures can result in transient disruptions in motor control, often organized into specific behavioral sequences that can inform seizure types, onset zones, and outcomes.

Ethanol Teratogenesis in Five Inbred Strains of Mice [PDF]
Background: Previous studies have demonstrated individual differences in susceptibility to the detrimental effects of prenatal ethanol exposure. Many factors, including genetic differences, have been shown to play a role in susceptibility and resistance, but few studies have investigated the range of genetic variation in rodent models.Methods: We ...

Differences in Exercise Capacity and Responses to Training in 24 Inbred Mouse Strains
Changes in cardiorespiratory fitness in response to a standardized exercise training protocol differ substantially between individuals. Results from cross-sectional, twin, and family studies indicate genetics contribute to individual differences in both ...

Maternal immune activation and strain specific interactions in the development of autism-like behaviors in mice. [PDF]
It is becoming increasingly apparent that the causes of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are due to both genetic and environmental factors. Animal studies provide important translational models for elucidating specific genetic or environmental factors ...

Strain-Dependent Vascular Remodeling Phenotypes in Inbred Mice [PDF]
We have recently established a mouse model of arterial remodeling in which flow in the left common carotid artery of FVB mice was interrupted by ligation of the vessel near the carotid bifurcation, resulting in a dramatic reduction of the lumen as a consequence of a reduction in vessel diameter and intimal lesion formation.

Phenotype and genetics of progressive sensorineural hearing loss (Snhl1) in the LXS set of recombinant inbred strains of mice. [PDF]
Progressive sensorineural hearing loss is the most common form of acquired hearing impairment in the human population. It is also highly prevalent in inbred strains of mice, providing an experimental avenue to systematically map genetic risk factors and ...

High-Density Genotypes of Inbred Mouse Strains: Improved Power and Precision of Association Mapping. [PDF]
Human genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of loci associated with disease phenotypes. Genome-wide association studies also have become feasible using rodent models and these have some important advantages over human studies ...
