Shear Stress Is Differentially Regulated Among Inbred Rat Strains [PDF]
An important compensatory response to atherosclerosis is vascular remodeling, with maintenance of vessel lumen diameter and shear stress. Both hemodynamic and environmental factors contribute to vascular remodeling and shear stress regulation, and the process is probably also influenced by genetic factors.

Male mice emit distinct ultrasonic vocalizations when the female leaves the social interaction arena. [PDF]
Adult male mice emit large number of complex ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) when interacting with adult females. Call numbers and call categories differ greatly among inbred mouse strains.

Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Neuroimaging Evidence of Major Morpho-Anatomical and Functional Abnormalities in the BTBR T+TF/J Mouse Model of Autism [PDF]
BTBR T+tf/J (BTBR) mice display prominent behavioural deficits analogous to the defining symptoms of autism, a feature that has prompted a widespread use of the model in preclinical autism research.

Tnni3k alleles influence ventricular mononuclear diploid cardiomyocyte frequency.
Recent evidence implicates mononuclear diploid cardiomyocytes as a proliferative and regenerative subpopulation of the postnatal heart. The number of these cardiomyocytes is a complex trait showing substantial natural variation among inbred mouse strains

Signalling mechanisms of long term facilitation of breathing with intermittent hypoxia. [PDF]
Intermittent hypoxia causes long-term facilitation (LTF) of respiratory motor nerve activity and ventilation, which manifests as a persistent increase over the normoxic baseline for an hour or more after the acute hypoxic ventilatory response.

Management and Modification of Flavonoids Against Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Flavonoids protect against NAFLD by enhancing mitochondrial function, reducing ER stress, and modulating gut microbiota. Structural modifications improve flavonoid efficacy, offering a promising dietary strategy for NAFLD management. ABSTRACT Flavonoids are small bioactive molecules commonly found in plant‐derived foods, exhibiting antioxidant, anti ...

Derivation of a germline competent transgenic Fischer 344 embryonic stem cell line. [PDF]
Embryonic stem (ES) cell-based gene manipulation is an effective method for the generation of mutant animal models in mice and rats. Availability of germline-competent ES cell lines from inbred rat strains would allow for creation of new genetically ...

Scalable Purification of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles for Organ Cryopreservation and Transplantation
Scalable purification of silica‐coated iron oxide nanoparticles (sIONP) enables organ‐scale nanowarming and cryopreservation. Tangential flow filtration (TFF) offers a rapid and scalable alternative to conventional ultracentrifugation, completing purification in 2.5 h.

Genetical genomic determinants of alcohol consumption in rats and humans
Background We have used a genetical genomic approach, in conjunction with phenotypic analysis of alcohol consumption, to identify candidate genes that predispose to varying levels of alcohol intake by HXB/BXH recombinant inbred rat strains.
