Spontaneous Recurrent Absence Seizure-like Events in Wild-Caught Rats

Journal of Neuroscience, 2019
Absence epilepsy is a heritable human neurological disorder characterized by brief nonconvulsive seizures with behavioral arrest, moderate-to-severe loss of consciousness (absence), and distinct spike-wave discharges (SWDs) in the EEG and ...

Mapping diabetes QTL in an intercross derived from a congenic strain of the Brown Norway and Goto-Kakizaki rats.

, 2006
Genetic studies in experimental crosses derived from the inbred Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat model of spontaneous diabetes mellitus have identified quantitative trait loci (QTL) for diabetes phenotypes in a large region of rat Chromosome (RNO) 1.

Genetic relationships between inbred strains of rats. An analysis based on genetic markers at 28 biochemical loci.

Genetical research, 1984
Genetic similarities among 46 strains of rats based on published data involving 93 samples and 28 biochemical loci were assessed using principal coordinate and cluster analysis techniques. Seventeen strains were represented by more than one colony.

Comparison of upper and lower airway responses of two sensitized rat strains to inhaled antigen

, 1992
The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationships between upper airways responses and pulmonary responses of two strains of highly inbred rats to inhaled antigen. To do this we measured the upper and lower airways resistance for 60 min after

The strength of the OVA-induced airway inflammation in rats is strain dependent

, 2002
To examine the influence of genetics on the OVA-induced allergic inflammatory response in lungs we compared rats that are genetically Th2-predisposed (Brown Norway, inbred) or not genetically predisposed (Sprague Dawley, outbred).

Rat strains differ in antibody response to Streptobacillus Moniliformis

, 2010
Rats are the natural host of Streptobacillus moniliformis. The bacterium is zoonotic which is an obvious reason for periodic monitoring of rat colonies for S. moniliformis infection.

In vivo and in vitro phenotypes of the nine inbred strains following T. gondii infection.

, 2014
(A–B) In vivo phenotypes of the nine inbred strains. Anti-T. gondii IgG response and cyst number were analyzed in four rats from each inbred strain after oral infection of 20 cysts. (A) Anti-T.

Studies on Oral Immune Reactions in the Genetically Mercury-Sensitive BN Rat and in the Hyperplastic BN-(BNxLEW) Graft-versus-Host Disease

, 1997
Mercury (Hg) is known to induce adverse immune reactions in sensitive individuals. e.g. selected inbred animal strains. Such reactions involve oral tissues and may reflect immune phenomena, that may also occur in some human oral diseases.

Telomere Dynamics Throughout Spermatogenesis

, 2019
Telomeres are repeat regions of DNA that cap either end of each chromosome, thereby providing stability and protection from the degradation of gene-rich regions. Each cell replication causes the loss of telomeric repeats due to incomplete DNA replication,
