Fischer 344 (F344), Lewis (LEW), spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats were chronically fed food containing pentobarbital on an escalating drug dosage schedule over a period of 47 days.

ABSTRACT Deficiency of cofactors for various enzymes can lead to inborn errors of metabolism. These conditions frequently occur as seizures, which lead to permanent brain damage. Newborn screening for biomarkers associated with these disorders can help in early detection and treatment.

Fine mapping of bone structure and strength QTLs in heterogeneous stock rat [PDF]
We previously demonstrated that skeletal structure and strength phenotypes vary considerably in heterogeneous stock (HS) rats. These phenotypes were found to be strongly heritable, suggesting that the HS rat model represents a unique genetic resource for

Re‐evaluation of saccharin and its sodium, potassium and calcium salts (E 954) as food additives
Abstract This opinion deals with the re‐evaluation of saccharin and its sodium, potassium and calcium salts (E 954) as food additives. Saccharin is the chemically manufactured compound 1,2‐benzisothiazol‐3(2H)‐one‐1,1‐dioxide. Along with its sodium (Na), potassium (K) and calcium (Ca) salts, they are authorised as sweeteners (E 954).

In humans, paragangliomas (PGLs) form in certain neuroendocrine cells that have lost succinate dehydrogenase, an enzyme of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Conditional SDH deficiency has not yet been shown to drive PGL formation in mice, limiting available research tools. Here, prenatal SDH knockout in small numbers of SOX10+ precursors of adrenal medulla

Mycophenolate mofetil inhibits lymphocyte binding and the upregulation of adhesion molecules in acute rejection of rat kidney allografts. [PDF]
Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) interacts with purine metabolism and possibly with the expression of adhesion molecules. In the present study, we analysed the expression of these molecules in transplanted kidney allografts treated with RS LBNF1 kidneys were ...

We tested if the effects of metformin were context specific in skeletal muscle using a rat model (high‐capacity and low‐capacity runners: HCRs/LCRs) with a divide in intrinsic aerobic capacity. Metformin lowered mitochondrial respiration, but a washout of metformin resulted in a doubling of respiratory capacity in HCRs, with no effect in LCRs.

Fine-mapping and comprehensive transcript analysis reveals nonsynonymous variants within a novel 1.17 Mb blood pressure QTL region on rat chromosome 10 [PDF]
The presence of blood pressure (BP) quantitative trait loci (QTL) on rat chromosome 10 has been clearly demonstrated by linkage analysis and substitution mapping.

Inbreeding for many generations under optimal environmental conditions may have favoured the survival of alleles for blood pressure increase in phenotypically normotensive rat strains.

Abstract Diabetes mellitus is one of the world's most prevalent and complex metabolic disorders, and it is a rapidly growing global public health issue. It is characterized by hyperglycemia, a condition involving a high blood glucose level brought on by deficiencies in insulin secretion, decreased activity of insulin, or both.
