Previous work from our laboratories has shown that juvenile Fischer 344 (F344) rats are less playful than other strains and also appear to be compromised in dopamine (DA) functioning.

Evidence of emerging transcriptome mediators of Alzheimer's disease in canine cognitive dysfunction
Canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) may be a promising model of Alzheimer's disease (AD). To assess AD‐related molecular signatures in CCD, we generated transcriptome data on dog cortex and plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs). CCD‐related transcriptome changes were similar to those in aging/AD humans and were detectable in EVs from the same animals ...

ABSTRACT The black soldier fly (BSF; Hermetia illucens) is rapidly emerging as a model for evolutionary biology and insect biotechnology. Although larval biology has been extensively characterised, the reproductive biology of adults remains comparatively understudied.

Gamma‐irradiated Newcastle disease virus: an alternative inactivated oncolytic virotherapy
To overcome biological risks associated with using live NDV as an oncolytic therapy, we developed gamma‐NDV as a safer alternative. Using a murine model for skin cancer, we show that intratumor administration of gamma‐NDV outperformed live‐NDV in terms of reducing tumor growth and improving overall animal survival. Abstract Newcastle disease virus (NDV)

Summary Acclimation enables plants to adjust to immediate environmental fluctuations and is therefore key to the resilience of plant disease resistance in a time of climate change. Here, we report on the acclimation of Arabidopsis thaliana quantitative immune responses against the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum to daily environmental ...

Assignment of the Human and Mouse Prion Protein Genes to Homologous Chromosomes [PDF]
Purified preparations of scrapie prions contain one major macromolecule, designated prion protein (PrP). Genes encoding PrP are found in normal animals and humans but not within the infectious particles.
