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

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 ...

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.

Modeling the Genetic Basis of Individual Differences in Susceptibility to Gulf War Illness

Brain Sciences, 2020
Between 25% and 30% of the nearly one million military personnel who participated in the 1991 Persian Gulf War became ill with chronic symptoms ranging from gastrointestinal to nervous system dysfunction.

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 ...

Finding Mr. Right: Housing Quality Affects Male Mouse Attractiveness to Females, With Implications for Conservation Captive Breeding

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
Housing quality affects male mouse attractiveness to females ABSTRACT Females generally prefer mates with traits indicating low stress (e.g., large size; good health). In captivity, stress from suboptimal housing might therefore reduce male attractiveness.

Of faeces and sweat. How much a mouse is willing to run: having a hard time measuring spontaneous physical activity in different mouse sub-strains

European Journal of Translational Myology, 2017
Physical activity has multiple beneficial effects in the physiology and pathology of the organism. In particular, we and other groups have shown that running counteracts cancer cachexia in both humans and rodents.

Glucose Absorption in Highly Inbred Strains of Mice.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1952
Conclusions1. Glucose absorption in the mouse has been studied. Increasing the concentration of administered solution results in an increase in the amount of glucose absorbed. 2. Glucose solutions of 75% concentration were absorbed somewhat more readily by mice of the C57 strain than by those of the A strain (p = 0.015). 3.

Improvement of Mouse Spermatozoa Freezing at ‐80°C With Ascorbic Acid 2‐Glucoside at Thawing Phase

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm cryopreservation is the most common method to maintain a great number of mutant mouse lines. However, the use of liquid nitrogen (LN2) for freezing presents considerable problems in terms of cost, safety, and accessibility. For this reason, the storage of semen samples at ‐80° in ultra‐freezers has been increasingly used in ...
