A Natural Occurring Mouse Model with Adgrv1 Mutation of Usher Syndrome 2C and Characterization of its Recombinant Inbred Strains

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: Our laboratory discovered a Kunming mouse with enormous electroretinogram (ERG) defects. Its auditory brainstem response (ABR) threshold was significantly elevated and closely resembled the features of Usher syndrome (USH).

Development of a single‐nucleotide polymorphism panel genotyping system for genetic analysis of Chinese hamsters

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Here, we developed a novel Chinese hamster genetic quality detection system using single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers following this process. To obtain SNP loci, we conducted whole genome sequencing on 24 Chinese hamsters. Then, we employed an SNP loci screening criterion that we set up previously and initially screened 214 SNP loci with wide ...

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)

Missing Value Estimation using Clustering and Deep Learning within Multiple Imputation Framework [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Missing values in tabular data restrict the use and performance of machine learning, requiring the imputation of missing values. The most popular imputation algorithm is arguably multiple imputations using chains of equations (MICE), which estimates missing values from linear conditioning on observed values.

Improved husbandry measures to enhance reproducibility of wound healing studies in the Leprdb/db mouse

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Though the Leprdb/db mouse is a common and well‐studied model of type II diabetes mellitus, there are a few specific guidelines for its husbandry, and wound complications are common. We present a modified husbandry approach for the Leprdb/db mouse that includes increased cage size, decreased housing density, and more frequent cage changes.

Variation in the cortical area map of C57BL/6J and DBA/2J inbred mice predicts strain identity

BMC Neuroscience, 2005
Background Recent discoveries suggest that arealization of the mammalian cortical sheet develops in a manner consonant with principles established for embryonic patterning of the body.

Strain-dependent variations in stress coping behavior are mediated by a 5-HT/GABA interaction within the prefrontal corticolimbic system [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Serotonin and γ- Aminobutyric acid (GABA) transmission is crucial in coping strategies. Methods: Here, using mice from 2 inbred strains widely exploited in behavioral neurochemistry, we investigated whether serotonin transmission in medial ...

Structural, Spectroscopic, and Docking Analysis of N,O‐Donor Ligand Metal Complex Nanoparticles With Hypolipidemic Effects via Lipoprotein Lipase Activation in High‐Fat Diet Mice

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Hypolipidemic influence of CETZ.2HCl‐(H1‐antihistamine) metal‐complexes on “C57Bl/6‐mice” fed high‐fat‐diet. ABSTRACT New Cd(II), Zn(II), and Cu(II) chelates with cetirizine.2HCl (CETZ.2HCl) in incidence of 1,10 phenanthroline monohydrate (Phen.H2O) were synthesized in search of new biologically active compounds.

Mice Infected with Low-virulence Strains of Toxoplasma gondii Lose their Innate Aversion to Cat Urine, Even after Extensive Parasite Clearance [PDF]

, 2013
Toxoplasma gondii chronic infection in rodent secondary hosts has been reported to lead to a loss of innate, hard-wired fear toward cats, its primary host. However the generality of this response across T. gondii strains and the underlying mechanism for this pathogen mediated behavioral change remain unknown.

Highly Variable Genomic Landscape of Endogenous Retroviruses in the C57BL/6J Inbred Strain, Depending on Individual Mouse, Gender, Organ Type, and Organ Location. [PDF]

, 2017
Transposable repetitive elements, named the "TREome," represent ~40% of the mouse genome. We postulate that the germ line genome undergoes temporal and spatial diversification into somatic genomes in conjunction with the TREome activity.
