Brain injury often impairs a person’s ability to remember. To find new drugs that improve memory after brain injury, scientist must rely on experiments in animals such as rats. But how do you test the rats? One way is use pool of colored water, called Morris water maze. In this maze, rats have “remember” where go get out water. The more rat’s has improved, quicker it finds its (rats not like be...

Previous results from our laboratory indicated two major genetic components of spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) hypertension, an autosomal component and a Y chromosome component. Two new substrains, SHR/a and SHR/y, were developed using a series of backcrosses to isolate each of these components. The SHR/a substrain has the autosomal loci and X chromosome from the SHR strain and the Y chrom...

Abstract Background Altered substrate transport protein expression is central to the effect of insulin resistance on cardiac metabolism. The present study was thus designed investigate comparative effects high fat, sucrose and salt-induced IR fatty acid transporter (FATP) glucose (GLUT4) in rats. Results Rats fed with salt diets developed impaired tolerance ( p > 0.05) hyperinsulinemia < ...
