RETRACTED: Identification of Cerebral Metal Ion Imbalance in the Brain of Aging Octodon degus

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2017
The accumulation of redox-active transition metals in the brain and metal dyshomeostasis are thought to be associated with the etiology and pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases, and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in particular.

Characterization of the Estrous Cycle in Octodon degus [PDF]

open access: yesBiology of Reproduction, 2010
We characterized the reproductive cycle of Octodon degus to determine whether reproductive maturation is spontaneous in juveniles and if ovarian cyclicity and luteal function are spontaneous in adults. Laboratory-reared prepubertal and adult females were monitored for vaginal patency and increased wheel-running.

Dental Eruption Chronology in Degus (Octodon Degus) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Dentistry, 2011
The purpose of this study was to gain information concerning chronology of postnatal dental eruption in degus (Octodon degu). Specific findings pertain to the estimation of postnatal age at tooth emergence through the gingiva and to the age when a particular tooth is in functional occlusion. Fifty newborn degu pups were included in this study.

Genome Sequencing Variations in the Octodon degus, an Unconventional Natural Model of Aging and Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
The degu (Octodon degus) is a diurnal long-lived rodent that can spontaneously develop molecular and behavioral changes that mirror those seen in human aging. With age some degu, but not all individuals, develop cognitive decline and brain pathology like

Variability of Behavioral Chronotypes of 16 Mammalian Species Under Controlled Conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Human chronotypes (differences in preference for early or late rising each day) have been extensively studied in recent years, but no attempt has been made to compare human chronotypes with the chronotypes of other animal species. We evaluated behavioral
