Because of the success of his books, Terry Pratchett was appointed OBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List. Not long after that, he won the Carnegie Medal for his children’s book The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents. Pratchett was diagnosed with Posterior Cortical Atrophy in 2007, ...
Nippostrongylus brasiliensis—a nematode of rodents—is commonly used as a model to study the immunobiology of parasitic nematodes. It is a member of the Strongylida—a large order of socioeconomically important parasitic nematodes of animals. Lipids are known to play essential roles in nematode ...
therefore, requires specialised facilities and is costly. Rodents and the majority of other mammals undergo gestation in utero which has obvious disadvantages for developmental studies in comparison with organisms
While male rodents were shown to have overall more microglia early in postnatal development, females overtake later in development and in adulthood [38]. Not only microglial colonization of the brain, but also resting microglial configuration is sex dependent: male microglia have an enlarged soma, ...
Further data analysis was performed with the addition of O157:H7 repeating unit molecular weight (698 Da) to modification list in the database search method. Two peptides were identified as a part of the D/E-X-N-X-S/T (where X is any amino acid except proline) carrying this glycan ...
Gene set enrichment analysis of ovarian transcriptomic in HFHS-treated mice compared to controls. Table S1. List of differential metabolites in ovaries of HFHS-treated mice compared to controls. Table S2. Clinical characteristics of control and PCOS subjects. Table S3. Sequences of primers. ...
Taking advantage of the fact that the genome ofAlligator sinensisis available in the NCBI (GCA 000455745.1), we also conducted a BLAST (blastn, word size = 11, e-value = 1e-6) to search the entire list of satDNAs against this genome that was assembled using Illumina Hiseq2000...
GO analyses were performed to identify enriched biological processes (BP) in each module compared to a background list of expressed genes in that cell type using Fisher’s test implemented by the topGO package with minimum 5 annotated genes per term [119, 120]. To generate bar plots of top...
manual search of reference lists of included articles. A total of 69 full-text articles were included (Additional file1. List of included studies) (Fig.1). Forty-four (64%) studies were published since 2020. We performed a narrative overview and content synthesis of the final included ...
Previous studies have revealed great differences in the structure of stomach caused by different diet habits among species. Compared to rodents, humans do not have the forestomach with a squamous epithelium, only possessing the glandular stomach with a simple columnar epithelium (Kim and Shivdasani ...
