Porous Decellularized Nerve Grafts Facilitate Recellularization and Nerve Regeneration in a Rat Model of Critical Long‐Gap Peripheral Nerve Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A decellularized nerve graft (DNG) is modified to generate a porous DNG (PDNG). The PDNG is used to repair a 30‐mm peripheral nerve injury (PNI) defect, and is compared with isograft, serving as the standard, and DNG, a widely used alternative. The result shows that PDNG facilitated nerve regeneration in long‐gap PNI, evidenced by better‐aligned axonal

A QTL on rat chromosome 7 modulates prepulse inhibition, a neuro-behavioral trait of ADHD, in a Lewis x SHR intercross

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2006
Background Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder with a substantial genetic component. The Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR), considered as a good animal model of ADHD, also show less anxiety-like ...

Comparison of Ovarian Morphology and Follicular Disturbances between Two Inbred Strains of Cotton Rats (Sigmodon hispidus)

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Most mammalian ovarian follicles contain only a single oocyte having a single nucleus. However, two or more oocytes and nuclei are observed within one follicle and one oocyte, respectively, in several species, including cotton rat (CR, Sigmodon hispidus).

A mouse model of lung ischemia–reperfusion injury with reversible left hilar entrapment

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A Novel Reversible Left Hilar Entrapment Model for Mouse Lung Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury with Visual Tracheal Intubation and Live Knot Technique. Abstract Lung ischemia–reperfusion injury (LIRI), an acute lung injury syndrome triggered by lung transplantation or distal organ ischemia, has long been a difficult and hot issue in clinical research.

Identification of a nutrient-sensing transcriptional network in monocytes by using inbred rat models on a cafeteria diet

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Obesity has reached pandemic levels worldwide. The current models of diet-induced obesity in rodents use predominantly high-fat based diets that do not take into account the consumption of variety of highly palatable, energy-dense foods that are ...

Multiple low dose streptozotocin‐induced diabetes as a model for studying autoimmune diabetes in humans

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Multiple low dose streptozotocin‐induced diabetes is a valuable animal model of diabetes type 1. It should be improved by further research on autoantigens, microbiota and mucosal immune cells from the gut, but also from other organs. Abstract The autoimmune response directed against pancreatic β cells is the most essential pathogenic process in type 1 ...

Ethnomedicinal Uses, Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Activities, and Toxicology of the Subfamily Gomphrenoideae (Amaranthaceae): A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

Neonatal handling decreases unconditioned anxiety, conditioned fear, and improves two-way avoidance acquisition: a study with the inbred Roman high (RHA-I)- and low-avoidance (RLA-I) rats of both sexes

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
The present study evaluated the long-lasting effects of neonatal handling (H; administered during the first 21 days of life) on unlearned and learned anxiety-related responses in inbred Roman High- (RHA-I) and Low-avoidance (RLA-I) rats.

Fungal Biodiversity From the Atlantic Forest With Bioactive Metabolites Against Cutaneous Leishmaniasis

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity offers a rich source of bioactive compounds for drug discovery. We isolated Aspergillus fumigatus from compost in the Atlantic Forest and found its extract active against Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis. Two crude extracts, I06 and I75, were selected for further study.

Squamate ventricular cardiomyocytes: Ploidy, proliferation, and heart muscle cell size in the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius)

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background While heart function is broadly conserved across vertebrates, the cellular phenotype of muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) varies across taxa and throughout ontogeny. Emerging evidence suggests that some attributes may correlate with the capacity for spontaneous cardiomyocyte replacement following injury.
