Can Wistar rats be used as the normotensive controls for nerve morphometry investigations in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR)? Ratos Wistar podem ser utilizados como os controles normotensos dos ratos espontaneamente hipertensos (SHR) em investigações morfométricas de nervos periféricos?

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2011
PURPOSE: We compared the sural nerve morphology among Wistar (WR), Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and Spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats, including the nerve fascicles and myelinated fibers morphometry.

Adolescent D-amphetamine treatment in a rodent model of ADHD: pro-cognitive effects in adolescence without an impact on cocaine cue reactivity in adulthood [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is comorbid with cocaine abuse. Whereas initiating ADHD medication in childhood does not alter later cocaine abuse risk, initiating medication during adolescence may increase risk.

New Wistar Kyoto and spontaneously hypertensive rat transgenic models with ubiquitous expression of green fluorescent protein

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
The Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rat and the spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rat inbred strains are well-established models for human crescentic glomerulonephritis (CRGN) and metabolic syndrome, respectively.

Nociception and conditioned fear in rats: strains matter.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
When using rats in pain research, strain-related differences in outcomes of tests for pain and nociception are acknowledged. However, very little is known about the specific characteristics of these strain differences. In this study four phylogenetically

Are Wistar Rats the Most Suitable Normotensive Controls for Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats to Assess Blood Pressure and Cardiac Structure and Function?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiovascular Sciences, 2022
Wistar male rat, which exhibited spontaneously elevated blood pressure, and a female rat with slightly elevated blood pressure. Subsequent brother-sister mating was continued with selection of animals with systolic blood pressure >150 mm Hg.

Effects of early life trauma are dependent on genetic predisposition: a rat study

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2011
Background Trauma experienced early in life increases the risk of developing a number of psychological and/or behavioural disorders. It is unclear, however, how genetic predisposition to a behavioural disorder, such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity ...
