Effects of blood vessel permeability on mechanical properties of bone under micro-gravity conditions
… to a bio-frequency spectrum (BFS) light, (iii) tail-suspension (simulating microgravity condition), and (iv) tail-suspension and exposure to a bio-frequency spectrum (BFS) light. Twenty-eight adult rats of ∼250 g were used and kept for 50 days before sacrificing. The average Young's moduli …

THE CHARACTERIZATION OF BEHAVIORAL ABNORMALITIES IN BDNF LOXP TRANSGENIC MICE
… home cage monitoring observations, open-field, tail suspension, and acoustic PPI to provide a detailed behavioral phenotype for BDNF<sup> lox+/+</sup> mice. Tail suspension protocols revealed progressive limb clasping deficits in BDNF<sup> lox+/+</sup> mice compared to control genotypes. …

Genetically-programmed suicide of adrenergic cells in the mouse leads to severe left ventricular dysfunction, impaired weight gain, and symptoms of neurological dysfunction
… muscular weakness, abnormal gaiting, and altered tail suspension reflex, an indicator of neurological function. This work demonstrates that selective Pnmt cell destruction leads to severe left ventricular dysfunction, lack of weight gain, and neurological dysfunction. This novel mouse is expected …

Effects of voluntary wheel running and forced treadmill running on inflammation induced behavioral abnormalities in young and old mice
… locomotor activity), depressive-like behavior (tail suspension test, sucrose preference), and activation of brain cytokine signaling pathways in young adult and aged mice. We hypothesized voluntary wheel running prior to LPS administration would induce anti-inflammatory effects and attenuate …

Investigação de parâmetros bioquímicos em dois modelos animais de depressão induzidos por desamparo aprendido e administração do lipopolissacarideo de E.Coli
… mice displayed higher immobility time in the tail suspension test when compared to saline. There was more oxidative damage in serum, PFC and hippocampus of LPS group when compared to saline and controls. No differences on IL-1β and TNFα concentration on serum, PFC and hippocampus of the …

Monoaminergic Regulation of MeCP2 Phosphorylation in Mouse Models of Psychiatric Disease
… depression-like behavior in the forced swim and tail suspension but show no differences compared to wild-type (WT) littermates in the sucrose preference test, suggesting that pMeCP2 may be implicated in the behavioral response to stressful stimuli. </p><p>Because we are interested in examining …

Kratom Alkaloid Mitragynine: Therapeutic Role and Potential Utility Against Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
… associated with CIPN using mouse models of the tail-suspension test, elevated zero maze, and conditioned place preference. Overall, the findings from this dissertation support the hypothesis that MG displays therapeutic efficacy against nocifensive behavior of CIPN and pain-related affective …

Downregulation of miR-10a-5p as a Potential Therapeutic Target to Improve the Detrimental Effects of Post-stroke Social Isolation
… treated mice were given a 7 mg/kg dose via tail vein injection daily for three days following stroke. Three days after stroke was induced, mice were separated into their housing assignments. Baseline and post stroke behavior were evaluated to identify differences in post stroke outcomes. …
