Tracking Small Artists
Tracks of small animals are important in environmental surveillance, where pattern recognition algorithms allow species identification of the individuals creating tracks. These individuals can also be seen as ...

Evaluation of the Linkage Disequilibrium Method for Estimating Effective Population Size
Data on linkage disequilibrium at unlinked loci provide an estimate of the inbreeding effective population size of the parental generation of the sampled cohort. The inbreeding effective population size, N ...

Low matrix metalloproteinase levels precede vascular lesion formation in the JCR:LA-cp rat
Clinically significant occlusive vascular lesions contain more extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and lipid deposition than healthy vascular tissue. The events leading to this condition remain unresolved. One...

Mg2+-Dependent Atpase Activity in Cardiac Myofibrils from The Insulin-Resistant JCR:La-Cp Rat
There is a great deal of information presently available documenting a cardiomyopathic condition in insulin-deficient models of diabetes. Less information is available documenting a similar status in non insul...

Type 2 Diabetes: Pharmacological Intervention in an Animal Model
The state of insulin resistance and the accompanying hyperinsulinemia are strong correlates of cardiovascular disease, even in the absence of overt diabetes. Insulin resistance is the central component of the ...

Cardiovascular disease in the JCR:LA-cp rat
The JCR:LA-cp rat is one of a number of strains that carry the mutant autosomal recessive cp gene. Animals, of all strains, that are homozygous, for the gene (cp/cp) become obese, insulin resistant, and hypertrig...

Age- and sex-related differences in nuclear lipid content and nucleoside triphosphatase activity in the JCR:LA-cp corpulent rat
The putative role of the nuclear nucleoside triphosphatase (NTPase) is to provide energy to the nuclear pore complex for poly A(+) mRNA export. Previous work has demonstrated that liver nuclear NTPase activity...
