Applying refinement to the use of mice and rats in rheumatoid arthritis research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a painful, chronic disorder and there is currently an unmet need for effective therapies that will benefit a wide range of patients. The research and development process for therapies and treatments currently involves in vivo

Amino Acid Metabolism and Immune Dysfunction in Urea Cycle Disorders: T and B Cell Perspectives

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Urea cycle disorders (UCDs) are a group of genetic metabolic conditions characterized by enzyme deficiencies responsible for detoxifying ammonia. Hyperammonemia, the accumulation of intermediate metabolites, and a deficiency of essential amino acids—due to a protein‐restrictive diet and the use of ammonia scavengers—can increase the risk of ...

Positional identification of variants of Adamts16 linked to inherited hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A previously reported blood pressure (BP) quantitative trait locus on rat Chromosome 1 was isolated in a short congenic segment spanning 804.6 kb. The 804.6 kb region contained only two genes, LOC306664 and LOC306665.

tVNS alters inflammatory response in adult VPA‐induced mouse model of autism: evidence for sexual dimorphism

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 1, Page 69-80, January 2025.
Cytokine levels in adult valproic acid (VPA)‐induced mouse (C57BL6) model of autism has been investigated and found to be altered. We show that bilateral transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) altered the inflammatory response and increased brain NLPR3 levels.

Nanostructural Modulation of G‐Quadruplex DNA in Neurodegeneration: Orotate Interaction Revealed Through Experimental and Computational Approaches

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 169, Issue 1, January 2025.
Aim of this study is to investigate drugs that modulate GGGGCC repeat aggregation, a key feature in neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS and FTD. The research emphasizes the role of the C9orf72 gene, which is implicated in these disorders, and focuses on G‐quadruplex (G4) DNA structures formed by these repeats.

Genetic Influences on Brain Gene Expression in Rats Selected for Tameness and Aggression

open access: yes, 2014
Inter-individual differences in many behaviors are partly due to genetic differences, but the identification of the genes and variants that influence behavior remains challenging.

Topological Analysis of Metabolic Networks Integrating Co-Segregating Transcriptomes and Metabolomes in Type 2 Diabetic Rat Congenic Series [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: The genetic regulation of metabolic phenotypes (i.e., metabotypes) in type 2 diabetes mellitus is caused by complex organ-specific cellular mechanisms contributing to impaired insulin secretion and insulin resistance.

Molecular targets of alcohol action: translational research for pharmacotherapy development and screening. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Alcohol abuse and dependence are multifaceted disorders with neurobiological, psychological, and environmental components. Research on other complex neuropsychiatric diseases suggests that genetically influenced intermediate characteristics affect the ...

COMPLEMENT FACTOR B IS A DETERMINANT OF BOTH METABOLIC AND CARDIOVASCULAR FEATURES OF METABOLIC SYNDROME [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
CFB (complement factor B) is elevated in adipose tissue and serum from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease, but the causal relationship to disease pathogenesis is unclear.

Adult vitamin D deficiency leads to behavioural and brain neurochemical alterations in C57BL/6J and BALB/c mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Epidemiological evidence suggests that low levels of vitamin D may predispose people to develop depression and cognitive impairment. While rodent studies have demonstrated that prenatal vitamin D deficiency is associated with altered brain development ...
