Sequencing of cDNA encoding serum albumin and its extrahepatic synthesis in the Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus.

Cloning of the cDNA encoding mast cell tryptase of Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus, and its preferential expression in the intestinal mucosa.

By using the combination of reverse-transcription PCR and rapid amplification of cDNA ends methods, a cDNA encoding mast cell tryptase was successfully cloned from the small intestine of Mongolian gerbil, Meriones unguiculatus, infected with Nippostrongylus brasiliensis. The cDNA was 1219 bp long including 810 bp of an open reading frame. Based on the deduced amino acid sequences of known mast ...

Determination of Giardia lamblia cyst infective dose for the Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus).

The purpose of this study was to determine the 50% infective dose for Giardia lamblia (CDC:0284:1) cysts in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus). The log10 50% infective dose results calculated by probit analysis and the Spearman-Karber method were 2.45 and 2.50, respectively.

The Effect of Diethylcarbamazine on Microfilariae of Brugia pahangi in Mongolian Jirds (Meriones unguiculatus)

Diethylcarbamazine (DEC) was effective in reducing microfilarial densities of Brugia pahangi in Mongolian jirds (Meriones unguiculatus) when it was administered intraperitoneally at the daily dosage of 300 mg/kg of body weight either for 5 consecutive days or every 3 days for 43 days with the total of 15 doses. The latter treatment scheme seemed to be more effective than the former, suggesting ...
