Inbred F344 rats as a biologic model of intra-abdominal sepsis [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Veterinary Research and Animal Science, 2002
Aiming to design a biologic model of acute intra-abdominal sepsis for experimental studies, conventional, isogenic rats F344 were infected with the bacteria Escherichia coli (E.coli), strain 11775, serotype H7:01:K1. Six hours after inoculation with E.

Marker tolerant, immunocompetent animals as a new tool for regenerative medicine and long-term cell tracking [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2007
Background Immune-mediated rejection of labeled cells is a general problem in transplantation studies using cells labeled with any immunogenic marker, and also in gene therapy protocols.

Influence of Age and Genetic Background on Ethanol Intake and Behavioral Response Following Ethanol Consumption and During Abstinence in a Model of Alcohol Abuse

open access: yesFrontiers 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]

open access: yesPLoS 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]

open access: yesFunctional & 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]

open access: yesLaboratory 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.

Local vs. systemic administration of bisphosphonates in rat cleft bone graft: A comparative study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
A majority of patients with orofacial cleft deformity requires cleft repair through a bone graft. However, elevated amount of bone resorption and subsequent bone graft failure remains a significant clinical challenge.

Experimental rat models of chronic allograft nephropathy: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Slc:Wistar outbred rats show close genetic similarity with F344 inbred rats

open access: yesExperimental 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 ...

Lewis, Fischer 344, and Sprague-Dawley rats display differences in lipid peroxidation, motor recovery, and rubrospinal tract preservation after spinal cord injury.

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2015
The rat is the most common animal model for the preclinical validation of neuroprotective therapies in spinal cord injury (SCI). Lipid peroxidation (LP) is a hallmark of the damage triggered after SCI.
