Ventilatory Phenotypes among Four Strains of Adult Rats. [PDF]
Our purpose in this study was to identify different ventilatory phenotypes among four different strains of rats. We examined 114 rats from three in-house, inbred strains and one outbred strain: Brown Norway (BN;n = 26), Dahl salt-sensitive (n = 24), Fawn-

Genomic determinants of triglyceride and cholesterol distribution into lipoprotein fractions in the rat. [PDF]
The plasma profile of major lipoprotein classes and its subdivision into particular fractions plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and is a major predictor of coronary artery disease. Our aim was to identify genomic determinants of

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

Traffic Noise Exposure Increases Gastric Acid Secretion in Rat [PDF]
Noise is considered as one of the most severe sources of environmental and work place constraints. Noise effects on immune function, hormonal levels, cardiovascular and respiratory systems are well known.

The genetic component of the forced diving bradycardia response in mammals
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.

Dissecting the genetic components of a quantitative trait locus for blood pressure and renal pathology on rat chromosome 3 [PDF]
Background: We have previously confirmed the importance of rat chromosome 3 (RNO3) genetic loci on blood pressure elevation, pulse pressure (PP) variability and renal pathology during salt challenge in the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive (SHRSP ...

Phenotypic and gene expression differences between DA, BN and WOKW rats. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Because inbred rat strains are widely used as laboratory models, knowledge of phenotypic and genetic variations between strains will be useful to obtain insight into the relationship between different strains.

Genetic factors control nicotine self-administration in isogenic adolescent rat strains. [PDF]
Adult cigarette smokers usually become dependent on cigarettes during adolescence. Despite recent advances in addiction genetics, little data delineates the genetic factors that account for the vulnerability of humans to smoke tobacco.
