Survey of rodent-borne pathogens in Singapore reveals the circulation of Leptospira spp., Seoul hantavirus, and Rickettsia typhi

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Rodents living alongside humans increases the probability of encounter and also the transmission of rodent-borne diseases. Singapore’s cosmopolitan urban landscape provides a perfect setting to study the prevalence of four rodent-borne pathogens: Seoul ...

Diseases of pet rodents [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, 1980
ABSTRACTThe main pet rodent species are introduced with some brief notes on their suitability as pets and normal behaviour. The general clinical features of disease are discussed with some emphasis on species variation. The important diseases that occur in the United Kingdom are described under the headings of respiratory disease, diseases of the ...

Advances in Rodent Experimental Models of Sepsis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
In the development of therapeutic strategies for human diseases, preclinical experimental models have a key role. However, the preclinical immunomodulatory therapies developed using rodent sepsis were not successful in human clinical trials.

Consequences of nano and microplastic exposure in rodent models: the known and unknown

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2022
The ubiquitous nature of micro- (MP) and nanoplastics (NP) is a growing environmental concern. However, their potential impact on human health remains unknown.

Uncovering sex differences of rodent microglia

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2021
There are inherent structural and functional differences in the central nervous systems (CNS) of females and males. It has been gradually established that these sex-specific differences are due to a spectrum of genetic, epigenetic, and hormonal factors ...

The use of anticoagulants for rodent control in a mixed-use urban environmefent in Singapore: A controlled interrupted time series analysis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Vector control remains an important strategy in preventing rodent-borne diseases. Studies quantifying the impact of anticoagulant bait use on rodent populations are scarce in tropical settings.

Ground-based rodent control in a remote Hawaiian rainforest on Maui. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Effective control of introduced mammalian predators is essential to the recovery of native bird species in Hawai‘i. Between August 1996 and December 2004, introduced rodents were controlled within three home ranges of the Po‘ouli Melamprosops phaeosoma,

Rodent models of neuroinflammation for Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2015
Alzheimer's disease remains incurable, and the failures of current disease-modifying strategies for Alzheimer's disease could be attributed to a lack of in vivo models that recapitulate the underlying etiology of late-onset Alzheimer's disease. The etiology of late-onset Alzheimer's disease is not based on mutations related to amyloid-β (Aβ) or tau ...

Transfixed by transgenics: how pathology assumptions are slowing progress in Alzheimer's disease and related dementia research

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2023
Model organisms of human diseases are invaluable tools for unraveling pathogenic mechanisms, identifying potential targets for drug development, and evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of candidates in preclinical trials.
