For genotyping of GluR2 knockout mice, a standard protocol for Taqman PCR was used.
Regardless of its effect, it is still not clear whether spinal motoneurons are hyperexcitable in mutant superoxide dismutase 1 (mice1) mice, a standard model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
To measure the cytotoxicity of TNF- α present in the serum from BALB/c mice, a standard assay with L-929 cells, a fibroblast continuous cell line, was used as described previously by [ 18].
The mice received a standard mouse feed (ssniff® R/M-H, V1535-300, Soestf, Soest, Germany).
Murine islets were isolated from C57Bl6 (five) or RIP-TMEM27 (four) mice using a standard mouse islet-isolation protocol, and were frozen 2 h after isolation.
All are descendants of a BALB/c mouse, a standard laboratory strain, a batch of which arrived in Dr. Cui's laboratory in 1999 to be injected with a lethal strain of mouse cancer cells.
The generic name, Pennatomys, combines the Latin pennatus "winged" with -mys "mouse", a standard element in the names of rodent genera, and honors archeologist Elizabeth Wing.
We tested chronic lithium dosing in a sibling-matched, gender balanced, investigator-blinded trial using the high-copy SOD1G93A mouse, a standard animal model of familial ALS [9].
When the researchers injected a solution containing the amphiphiles into the corneas of mice--a standard model for testing new blood-vessel growth--the amphiphiles formed fibers that then prompted new blood vessels to grow.
SRT1720 fed to 6-month-old mice increased mean lifespan in mice fed a standard diet or a high-fat diet (Mitchell et al., 2014).
After 20 weeks on a high-fat diet, DIO mice weighed significantly more than mice fed a standard control diet (control, 33.0±0.6 g vs DIO, 47.6±1.3 g; P<0.001).
