Home Cage Compared with Induction Chamber for Euthanasia of Laboratory Rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study compared behavioral and physiologic changes in Sprague-Dawley and Brown Norway rats that were euthanizedby using a 30% volume displacement rate of CO2 in either their home cage or an induction chamber; rats euthanized in thehome cage were ...

Voluntary Alcohol Intake following Blast Exposure in a Rat Model of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Alcoholism is a frequent comorbidity following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), even in patients without a previous history of alcohol dependence. Despite this correlational relationship, the extent to which the neurological effects of mTBI contribute

Effect of foxtail millet supplementation in comparison to atorvastatin on high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemia in rats

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Hyperlipidemia can be defined as an increased concentration of lipids in the blood. Foxtail millet (FTM) is a nutrient-rich cereal containing several phytochemicals which have possible lipid-lowering and glucose-lowering abilities ...

Systemic candidiasis in Sprague-Dawley rats [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Mycology, 1996
A reproducible model of a generalized Candida albicans infection was established in rats to allow a precise evaluation of the efficacy of antifungal compounds. In contrast to the intravenous C. albicans model in mice, which serves as a primary model for in vivo efficacy studies of antimycotic compounds, the infectious process in Sprague-Dawley rats is ...

Inhalation of welding fumes reduced sperm counts and high fat diet reduced testosterone levels; differential effects in Sprague Dawley and Brown Norway rats

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2020
Background Previous studies have shown that inhalation of welding fumes may induce pulmonary and systemic inflammation and organ accumulation of metal, to which spermatogenesis and endocrine function may be sensitive.

Behavioral Phenotyping of Juvenile Long-Evans and Sprague-Dawley Rats: Implications for Preclinical Models of Autism Spectrum Disorders. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The laboratory rat is emerging as an attractive preclinical animal model of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), allowing investigators to explore genetic, environmental and pharmacological manipulations in a species exhibiting complex, reciprocal social ...

Urolithiasis in the Sprague-Dawley rat [PDF]

open access: yesLaboratory Animals, 1979
A 7 year collection of calculi from short- and long-term studies with Sprague-Dawley rats showed that although the incidence of rats with urolithiasis was small (0·5%), the variety of sizes and composition of the calculi could be of general interest.

Spontaneous Iron Overload in Sprague-Dawley Rats [PDF]

open access: yesToxicologic Pathology, 1997
In a review of the toxicological studies performed in our laboratory during the period 1986-1995, we occasionally observed significant iron overloading in the liver. Liver tissue was examined by light and electron microscopy, and the results were analyzed by sex and age (7, 9, 11, 19, 31, 59, and 111 wk).

Morris Water Maze Learning in Two Rat Strains Increases the Expression of the Polysialylated Form of the Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule in the Dentate Gyrus But Has No Effect on Hippocampal Neurogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In the current study, the authors investigated whether Morris water maze learning induces alterations in hippocampal neurogenesis or neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) polysialylation in the dentate gyrus.

Fatty acid synthase and adipsin mRNA levels in obese and lean JCR:LA-cp rats: effect of diet.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1992
In Sprague-Dawley rats, fatty acid synthase (FAS) activity is suppressed by dietary fat. To test the hypothesis that a defect in regulation of de novo fatty acid synthesis exists in massive obesity, we investigated the effect of diet on FAS mRNA levels ...
