The genetic component of the forced diving bradycardia response in mammals [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2011 We contrasted the forced diving bradycardia between two genetically similar (inbred) rat strains (Fischer and Buffalo), compared to that of outbred rats (Wistar). The animals were habituated to forced diving for 4 weeks.

Identification of the genetic background of laboratory rats through amplicon-based next-generation sequencing for single-nucleotide polymorphism genotyping [PDF]
BMC Genomic DataBackground Laboratory rats, as model animals, have been extensively used in the fields of life science and medicine. It is crucial to routinely monitor the genetic background of laboratory rats. The conventional approach relies on gel electrophoresis and

Superovulation with an anti-inhibin monoclonal antibody improves the reproductive performance of rat strains by increasing the pregnancy rate and the litter size [PDF]
Scientific ReportsRats are multiparous rodents that have been used extensively in research; however, the low reproductive performance of some rat strains hampers the broader use of rats as a biomedical model.

Reagin synthesis in inbred strains of rats.
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1973 Reaginic antibody synthesis after intraperitoneal immunization with ovalbumin in aluminium hydroxide gel (Al(OH)3) has been evaluated in BN, F344 and ACI inbred strains of rats and compared to that in outbred Wistar rats. Regardless of the dose of antigen employed (0.1 mg, 0.01 mg, 0.001 mg), BN inbred and Wistar outbred rats produced comparable ...

Cholesterol Response in Inbred Strains of Rats, Rattus norvegicus [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 1981 A hypercholesterolemic diet fed to rats revealed significant interstrain differences in plasma cholesterol levels. Hyperresponding and hyporesponding strains could be distinguished from normoresponding strains within 3 weeks.

Phenotypic Variation in Strength Among Eleven Inbred Strains of Rats
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1998 As a first step toward the long-range goal of identifying the genes that determine strength, we subjected 11 inbred strains of rats to three tests of muscular strength. The tests consisted of measuring (1) the force exerted by the rat as it was pulled by

A low coefficient of variation in hepatic triglyceride concentration in an inbred rat strain
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2020 Background Inbred strains are characterized by less genetic variation, which suggests usefulness of inbred strains for evaluations of various parameters.

Simulated childbirth injuries in an inbred rat strain [PDF]
Neurourology and Urodynamics, 2008 AbstractAimsVaginal distension (VD) in outbred rats has been shown to decrease urethral resistance, as well as increase the expression of the stem cell‐homing chemokine, monocyte chemotactic factor 3 (MCP‐3), but not stromal derived factor 1 (SDF‐1). The aim of this study was to determine if similar responses are induced by VD in an inbred rat strain ...
