Partial Predictability in Avoidance Acquisition and Expression of Wistar-Kyoto and Sprague-Dawley Rats: Implications for Anxiety Vulnerability in Uncertain Situations

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2020
Individual differences or vulnerabilities must exist which bias some individuals toward psychopathology while others remain resilient in the face of trauma.

Shaping the development of complex social behavior

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1530, Issue 1, Page 46-63, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Early life experiences can have an enduring impact on the brain and behavior, with implications for stress reactivity, cognition, and social behavior. In particular, the neural systems that contribute to the expression of social behavior are altered by early life social environments.

Animal models for anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody‐associated vasculitis: Are current models good enough?

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 6, Issue 5, Page 452-463, October 2023., 2023
The construction of the most representative AAV animal models that are used as powerful tools for investigating disease pathogenesis and testing pre‐clinical therapeutics. (A) The representative active MPO‐AAV model, Enhanced EAV rat model by NTS trigger. (B) The representative passive MPO‐AAV model, Anti MPO ANCA transfer model. (C) The representative

Glomerulonephritis and autoimmune vasculitis are independent of P2RX7 but may depend on alternative inflammasome pathways

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, Volume 257, Issue 3, Page 300-313, July 2022., 2022
Abstract P2RX7, an ionotropic receptor for extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP), is expressed on immune cells, including macrophages, monocytes, and dendritic cells and is upregulated on nonimmune cells following injury. P2RX7 plays a role in many biological processes, including production of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)‐1β ...

Innate lymphoid cell characterization in the rat and their correlation to gut commensal microbes

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 5, Page 717-729, May 2022., 2022
Rat ILCs are here defined and characterized across multiple tissues, and we have defined the borders between rat NK cells and ILC1s via scRNA‐Seq. Variations of intestinal ILC frequencies in individual rats were mapped against composition of the commensal microbiota. Abstract Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are important for tissue immune homeostasis, and

Impact of the Aversive Effects of Drugs on Their Use and Abuse

open access: yesBehavioural Neurology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Drug use and abuse are complex issues in that the basis of each may involve different determinants and consequences, and the transition from one to the other may be equally multifaceted. A recent model of the addiction cycle (as proposed by Koob and his colleagues) illustrates how drug‐taking patterns transition from impulsive (acute use) to compulsive

Bone healing of mandibular critical-size defects in spontaneously hypertensive rats

open access: yesBrazilian Oral Research, 2013
Few articles have shown changes in bone metabolism caused by hypertension. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between hypertension and bone healing.

Sex and heredity are determinants of drug intake in a novel model of rat oral oxycodone self‐administration

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 20, Issue 8, November 2021., 2021
Seven inbred strains of rats show different dose‐dependent escalation of operant responses for oral oxycodone. Abstract The steady rise in prescription opioids such as oxycodone has led to a virulent epidemic of widespread abuse and deaths in the United States; approximately 80% of affected individuals initiate the habitual use of oxycodone by using ...

Unique Regulatory Properties of Mesangial Cells Are Genetically Determined in the Rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mesangial cells are glomerular cells of stromal origin. During immune complex mediated crescentic glomerulonephritis (Crgn), infiltrating and proliferating pro-inflammatory macrophages lead to crescent formation.

Avoidance Expression in Rats as a Function of Signal-Shock Interval: Strain and Sex Differences

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
Inbred Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats express inhibited temperament, increased sensitivity to stress, and exaggerated expressions of avoidance. A long-standing observation for lever press escape/avoidance learning in rats is the duration of the warning signal (
