ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

Male mice emit distinct ultrasonic vocalizations when the female leaves the social interaction arena. [PDF]
Adult male mice emit large number of complex ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) when interacting with adult females. Call numbers and call categories differ greatly among inbred mouse strains.

Abstract Background While heart function is broadly conserved across vertebrates, the cellular phenotype of muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) varies across taxa and throughout ontogeny. Emerging evidence suggests that some attributes may correlate with the capacity for spontaneous cardiomyocyte replacement following injury.

Detection and Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci that Determine Responsiveness [PDF]
Exposure to 70% N2O evokes a robust antinociceptive effect in C57BL/6 (B6) but not in DBA/2 (D2) inbred mice. This study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) in the mouse genome that might determine responsiveness to N2O.

Radiation-induced myeloid leukemia in murine models. [PDF]
The use of radiation therapy is a cornerstone of modern cancer treatment. The number of patients that undergo radiation as a part of their therapy regimen is only increasing every year, but this does not come without cost.

Genetic differences and longevity-related phenotypes influence lifespan and lifespan variation in a sex-specific manner in mice. [PDF]
Epidemiological studies of human longevity found two interesting features, robust advantage of female lifespan and consistent reduction of lifespan variation.

Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

The effects of strain, reproductive condition, and strain of placenta donor on placentophagia in nonpregnant mice [PDF]
The effects on placentophagia of strain, reproductive condition, and strain of placenta donor were observed in nonpregnant mice. Mice of the C57BL/6By and BALB/cBy strains were exposed to placentas of either strain after either no previous parturitional ...

The rs6265 (Val66Met) BDNF SNP determines responsiveness to a clinically relevant therapeutic electrical stimulation (TES) protocol following peripheral nerve injury. This study examined gene–treatment interactions using a rat model of sciatic nerve injury and human iPSC‐derived motor neurons to assess how the common rs6265 BDNF polymorphism influences
