The complexity of dementia development and its comorbidities: The collaborative cross‐mouse population for multivarious tasks approach

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of dementia and related neurodegenerative diseases—including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis—poses a growing public health challenge. These conditions have traditionally been studied as isolated central nervous system disorders, but emerging evidence points to ...

Genetic factors at the enterocyte level account for variations inintestinal cholesterol absorption efficiency among inbred strains of mice1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
Interindividual and interstrain variations in cholesterol absorptionefficiency occur in humans and animals. We investigated physiological biliaryand small intestinal factors that might determine variations in cholesterolabsorption efficiency among inbred

Which mouse multiparental population is right for your study? The Collaborative Cross inbred strains, their F1 hybrids, or the Diversity Outbred population

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2023
Multiparental populations (MPPs) encompass greater genetic diversity than traditional experimental crosses of two inbred strains, enabling broader surveys of genetic variation underlying complex traits. Two such mouse MPPs are the Collaborative Cross (CC)

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
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 ...

Effects of housing density in five inbred strains of mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
To evaluate the effect of increased mouse density in a cage, mice were housed at the density recommended by the 1996 Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals and at densities that were approximately 2, 2.6, and 3 times greater.

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...

Guideline for the In Vivo Immunomodulatory Activity Test of Polysaccharide Based on Cyclophosphamide‐Induced Mouse Model

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Abstract graph of the in vivo immunomodulatory activity of polysaccharide based on a cyclophosphamide‐induced mouse model. ABSTRACT The immune system serves as the primary defense mechanism against pathogens and plays a vital role in maintaining host homeostasis. In recent years, natural polysaccharides have emerged as promising immunomodulators due to
