Salivary α-amylase exhibits antiproliferative effects in primary cell cultures of rat mammary epithelial cells and human breast cancer cells [PDF]
Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2011 Background Breast cancer is one of the most diagnosed cancers in females, frequently with fatal outcome, so that new strategies for modulating cell proliferation in the mammary tissue are urgently needed.

Inhalation of 1-bromopropane alters hippocampal expression of pathways related to immune system/inflammation and insulin signaling in experimental rats [PDF]
Scientific Reports1-Bromopropane, an alternative to ozone-depleting solvents, exhibits neurotoxicity in humans and rats. The aim of the present study was to identify the genes or signaling pathways involved in the neurotoxicity and hepatotoxicity of 1-bomopropane in two ...

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022 Genetic background and age at first exposure have been identified as critical variables that contribute to individual vulnerability to drug addiction. Evidence shows that genetic factors may account for 40–70% of the variance in liability to addiction ...

Derivation of a germline competent transgenic Fischer 344 embryonic stem cell line. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Embryonic stem (ES) cell-based gene manipulation is an effective method for the generation of mutant animal models in mice and rats. Availability of germline-competent ES cell lines from inbred rat strains would allow for creation of new genetically ...

Genes influencing spinal bone mineral density in inbred F344, LEW, COP, and DA rats [PDF]
Functional & Integrative Genomics, 2009 Previously, we identified the regions of chromosomes 10q12-q31 and 15p16-q21 harbor quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for lumbar volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) in female F2 rats derived from Fischer 344 (F344) x Lewis (LEW) and Copenhagen 2331 (COP) x Dark Agouti (DA) crosses.

Population distribution profiles of the activities of blood alanine and aspartate aminotransferase in the normal F344 inbred rat by age and sex [PDF]
Laboratory Animals, 1991 Data on the blood enzyme activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were collected from control male and female F344 rats participating in toxicity studies at 17, 30, 56, 80 and 106 weeks of age. The data were skewed to the right with significant deviation from normality.

Slc:Wistar outbred rats show close genetic similarity with F344 inbred rats
Experimental Animals, 2015 Although Slc:Wistar rats are used widely in biomedical research as outbred rats, close similarities in growth curves, survival rates, and immunological and biochemical phenotypes have been reported between Slc:Wistar and F344 inbred rats. We reported previously that nine genetic variations that were fixed in Slc:Wistar rats had identical genotypes in ...

Experimental rat models of chronic allograft nephropathy: a review [PDF]
, 2014 Chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) is the leading cause of late allograft loss after renal transplantation (RT), which continues to remain an unresolved problem. A rat model of CAN was first described in 1969 by White et al. Although the rat model of RT
