This is the first regional study aimed at understanding diversity of fauna nesting in populations Atlas Pistachio Algeria. Fieldwork which lasted 6 years, consisted mixed sampling (stratified then subjective) accompanied by surveys surrounding population order to find vertebrate species sought. A total 160 have been identified all area (Tiaret region). There are birds (46 migratory and 66 seden...


 Kulit jeruk nipis adalah salah satu tanaman toga, masyarakat hanya mengetahui bahwa airnya saja yang dapat digunakan, sedangkan kulitnya dijadikan limbah. Padahal kulit juga bisa obat serta menurunkan kolesterol. Tujuan penelitian untuk uji efektivitas penurunan kolesterol ekstrak etanol pada mencit putih Mus musculus. Penelitian ini merupakan eksperimental, glukotest dengan mengunakan M...

Toxicogenomic studies are increasingly used to uncover potential biomarkers of adverse health events, enrich chemical risk assessment, and to facilitate proper identification and treatment of persons susceptible to toxicity. Current approaches to biomarker discovery through gene expression profiling usually utilize a single or few strains of rodents, limiting the ability to detect biomarkers th...

Significance Our work reveals the breadth of NK cell immune variation present in Mus musculus species as represented by highly diverse Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse resource. We identify unique CC strains that provide an opportunity to study differentiation and function, we genomic loci driving relevant parameters including lung numbers, frequencies CD94 + cells, expression levels NKp46. Final...

Plagues of the house mouse (Mus musculus) occur at irregular intervals throughout the agricultural regions of south-eastern Australia. This paper discusses these phenomena in terms of their impact on agricultural production, previous attempts to reduce damage and levels of infestation, and associated environmental implications. Consideration is also given to the accurate prediction of mouse pla...

T H E mutant twirler, symbol Tw, of the house mouse, Mus musculus, was first recognized by the 'waltzing' behaviour which the heterozygotes show. It was later found to affect the morphology of the inner ear and, when homozygous, to cause death of new-born animals through harelip and cleft palate. This paper describes the behaviour and ear defects of heterozygotes and the appearance of homozygot...

Pleurolophocercous cercariae emerged from naturally infected Melanoides tuberculata from Minas Gerais State, Brazil, were used to perform experimental infection of laboratory-reared Poecilia reticulata. Mature metacercariae were obtained from the gills of fishes and force-fed to Mus musculus. The adult parasites which recovered from small intestines of mice were identified as Centrocestus formo...

The patterns of nucleotide difference were compared at 3,473,111 codons from 9,390 aligned orthologous genes of mouse (Mus musculus), rat (Rattus norvegicus), and human (Homo sapiens). The results showed evidence of a higher frequency of both synonymous and nonsynonymous differences from human in the rat than in the mouse. However, contrary to a previous report, there was no evidence of a great...

Comparing biological processes in closely related species with divergent life spans is a powerful approach to study mechanisms of aging. The oxidative stress hypothesis of aging predicts that longer-lived species would have lower reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and/or an increased antioxidant capacity, resulting in reduced oxidative damage with age than in shorter-lived species. In thi...

PCR diagnostics detected 100% prevalence of Helicobacter in 425 wild house mice (Mus musculus) from across central Europe. Of seven species identified, the five most frequent were Helicobacter rodentium (78%), H. typhlonius (53%), H. hepaticus (41%), H. bilis (30%), and H. muridarum (1%). Double infections were more common (42%) than single (30%) and triple (21%) infections. Wild house mice cou...
