Genetic Rodent Models of Huntington Disease

2018
The monogenic nature of Huntington disease (HD) has led to the development of a spectrum of useful genetically modified models. In particular, rodents have pioneered as the first HD model being generated and have since been the most widely used animal model for HD in both basic research and preclinical therapeutic studies.

Vector- and Rodent-Borne Diseases in Europe and North America: Distribution, Public Health Burden, and Control

, 2006
There are a significant number of diseases carried by insects such as mosquitoes or sand flies or by ticks, mites and rodents, and these are far more common than is often realized. New diseases are constantly being discovered and are becoming more widely

Protozoal diseases of rabbits and rodents

Seminars in Avian and Exotic Pet Medicine, 1995
Protozoal parasites have been reported in rabbits and a variety of rodents. In many cases, the organisms are coincidental commensals, and no disease is present. In others, protozoa may cause problems as secondary invaders in debilitated/immunocompromised hosts or as primary pathogens.

Pharmacological Models of Parkinson’s Disease in Rodents

2011
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders. Despite the substantial progress that has been achieved, the precise mechanisms involved in the development of this disease are still not fully understood. The most common concepts relate to the genetic background and environmental/toxic effects.
