The compound improved mitochondrial function and enhanced the survival of neurons. Mice are the most commonly used laboratory animals, with around 2.6 million used in the UK annually. Erik Kolb, Scott Kelly, and Theodore Garland from Dr. And then there is this experiment from Germany, in which researchers placed running wheels in the cages of a group of laboratory mice and let them exercise at will. Injected with a fluorescent protein to make them glow bright red, laboratory mice are helping Czech scientists better understand the causes behind intestinal cancers and skin diseases while leaving the rodents unscathed. This chapter focuses on two database resources that can facilitate the use of the laboratory mouse for genetic and genomic studies of behavior. In the lab, the virus was injected into the hippocampus region in mice. Keeping-lab-mice-warm-could-save-costs-benefit-. The researchers teamed up with a laboratory at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Baltimore to create a virus which produces the tomosyn protein. Linking biochemical genetic data to the reference genome for the laboratory mouse is important for comparative physiology and for developing mouse models of human biology and disease. The new approach used by scientists in Jaenisch's lab bypasses ES cells to quickly and efficiently produce mice with mutations in both copies of multiple genes. It also inhibited weight loss and stopped the decline of motor skills, among other benefits. If you give laboratory mice the fodder to make a home, they'll not only be happier but also save you a lot of money in the bargain.
