Although pups survived birth and were of normal appearance, most were found dead 12–48 h later. Little to no milk was present in the stom- ach of the dead animals, indicating lack of adequate nu- trition as a likely cause of death. Taken together, these results suggest that mothers ...

Typical appearance of observational scoring parameters in healthy and diseased newborn mice. (a) Healthy newborn pup with active raised head posture, vivid spontaneous movement and rosy-pink skin colour. (b) Bright abdominal milk spot indicating normal suckling behaviour and nursing. (c) Newborn ...
Health assessment including body weight and appearance was done for these newborn mouse pups. The fertility index, namely the ratio of females delivered offspring/total females, was up to 38.7% for Ab4B19-treated group, and 14.2% for the vehicle-treated group. The average number of newborn ...
3a). In addition, we analyzed the morphology of IBA-1-positive cells to distinguish between resting microglia, defined by a typically ramified appearance with fine processes, and activated, pro-inflammatory microglia, defined by shorter and thicker processes. To assess the extent of our observation...
(Fig. 1A and B). As expected with the chosen guide RNAs, the deletion was in exon 1 of the Igha locus. The founder was backcrossed onto BALB/c background for 8–10 generations to eliminate any off-target CRISPR effects. IgA-deficient mice were comparable in weight, appearance, behavior...
(72). He understands the nature of the isolation, which is because he is black and therefore in their eyes inferior. He knows that segregation is occurring and that makes him hostile towards the other workers because he knows that he cannot change his physical appearance to change the way ...
While the newborn pup homozygous for this mutation has a whole-body cholesterol pool (2377 mg/kg body weight) that is barely elevated above that of control animals (1833 mg/kg), this pool progressively expands with age until at 7 weeks it is elevated 2.5-fold above the normal value (17...
Despite his loneliness, he is accompanied by his dog, which he has raised since it was a pup. They share the characteristics of being old and disabled. His dog is stiff from rheumatism, unable to eat because he has little to no teeth, and is blind due to old age. Candy agreed with ...
Grouping was defined by the appearance of ≥2 pups or fake pups together at the end of the behavioral trial. e–i Quantification of optogenetically induced pup retrieval behavior in both sexes. The percentage of animals that displayed pup retrieval behavior during photostimulation (e), trial-by...
