Observations on Leukemia in Wistar and Wistar Furth Rats [PDF]
Blood, 1965 Abstract 1. Six-hundred and seventy-three Wistar and W/Fu rats were treated at the age of 4 months with whole body x-ray, orally administered 3MCA or a combination of these agents. All animals were followed until death and 87 per cent were autopsied. 2. Among 303 autopsied animals there were 403 benign and malignant tumors,

Spontaneous Synovitis in Wistar Rats [PDF]
Toxicologic Pathology, 1998 Spontaneous synovitis has been detected in the stifle joints of control Wistar rats in 4-wk and 2-yr toxicity studies, and a specific site was found to be predisposed to synovitis. The incidence of synovitis was 27.5% for males in the 4-wk study and 40.0% for males and 16.0% for females in the 2-yr study. The severity was not increased with aging.

Ototoxicity of cypermethrin in Wistar rats
Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2020 This study presents the effect of cypermethrin on the cochlear function in Wistar rats post-subchronic inhalation exposure. Worldwide several pesticides are described as causing health disorders. Cypermethrin is currently one of the most commonly used, however, little is known about its harmful effects, especially related to hearing. Human studies have

Effects of Δ⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) vapor inhalation in Sprague-Dawley and Wistar rats. [PDF]
, 2021 An inhalation system based on e-cigarette technology produces hypothermic and antinociceptive effects of Δ⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in rats. Indirect comparison of some prior investigations suggested differential impact of inhaled THC between Wistar ...

Spontaneous Cholangiofibrosis in a Wistar Rat [PDF]
Toxicologic Pathology, 2019 In a 2-year carcinogenicity study, we identified a spontaneous cholangiofibrosis in a control male Wistar rat. This lesion has long been considered as a compound-related change, with no spontaneous cases reported in the Wistar rat. In addition to routine hematoxylin and eosin stains evaluation, we applied Masson’s trichrome staining, Alcian blue ...

Auricular chondritis in Wistar rats [PDF]
Laboratory Animals, 1990 The macroscopic and microscopic features of auricular chondritis in Wistar rats are described. Histologic lesions are characterized by granulomatous inflammation, chondrolysis, and multinodular proliferative foci. The condition in Wistar rats is compared to auricular chondritis in other strains of rats.

Improved timed-mating, non-invasive method using fewer unproven female rats with pregnancy validation via early body mass increases [PDF]
, 2018 For studies requiring accurate conception-timing, reliable, efficient methods of detecting oestrus reduce time and costs, whilst improving welfare. Standard methods use vaginal cytology to stage cycle, and breeders are paired–up using approximately five ...
