Lifestyle, unhealthy eating patterns, and low physical activity become trigger factors of obesity. Therefore, lifestyle modification with an exercise-based nonpharmacological approach is one the strategies for combat This study aims to analyse response moderate-intensity interval continuous exercise irisin level increasing pattern on obese female. A total 21 females were enrolled in this given ...

We studied the contribution of the main olfactory system to mate recognition and sexual behavior in female mice. Female mice received an intranasal irrigation of either a zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) solution to destroy the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) or saline (SAL) to serve as control. ZnSO4-treated female mice were no longer able to reliably distinguish between volatile as well as nonvolatile od...

Toll-like receptor (TLR)-dependent pathways control the activation of various immune cells and the production of cytokines and chemokines that are important in innate immune control of viruses, including mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV). Here we report that upon MCMV infection wild-type and TLR7(-/-) male mice were more resistant than their female counterparts, while TLR9(-/-) male and female mice ...

A significant quantitative trait locus (QTL) for murine litter size, Lsq1, was previously identified on chromosome 7 in the female backcross progeny of ♀(♀C57BL/6J × ♂RR/Sgn) ♂RR/Sgn (BRR mice). In present study, QTL mapping analysis performed same ♀(♀RR/Sgn ♂C57BL/6J) (RBR mice), and Lsq1 again. As size is significantly larger BRR mice than that RBR mice, potential effect grandparental cross d...

Mice derived entirely from embryonic stem (ES) cells can be generated through tetraploid complementation. Although XY male ES cell lines are commonly used in this system, occasionally, monosomic XO female mice produced spontaneous Y chromosome loss. Here, we describe an efficient method to obtain by CRISPR-Cas9-mediated deletion of the chromosome, allowing generation clonal The viable and able ...

Mouse CYP2J5 is abundant in kidney and active in the metabolism of arachidonic acid to epoxyeicosatrienoic acids. Western blots of microsomes prepared from mouse kidneys demonstrate that after puberty, CYP2J5 protein is present at higher levels in male mice than in female mice. Northern analysis reveals that CYP2J5 transcripts are more abundant in adult male versus female kidneys, indicating th...

Muscle fatigue is associated with a number of clinical diseases, including chronic pain conditions. Decreases in extracellular pH activates acid-sensing ion channel 3 (ASIC3), depolarizes muscle, protects against fatigue, and produces pain. We examined whether ASIC3-/- mice were more fatigable than ASIC3+/+ mice in a task-dependent manner. We developed two exercise protocols to measure exercise...

Background: Sperm DNA damage (SDD) is a significant male infertility factor, yet it is not routinely diagnosed or treated in couples undertaking fertility treatment by ART. Men with this condition are likely to experience sub-fertility or infertility, expose their female partners to greater risk of miscarriage and pass on de novo sporadic DNA mutations potentially compromising the health of the...
