Blizard D, Adams N, Boomsma D
Personal Neurosci
. 2023 Dec;
6:e6.
PMID: 38107782
We examine some of the genetic features of neuroticism (N) taking as an animal model the Maudsley Reactive (MR) and Maudsley Nonreactive (MNR) rat strains which were selectively bred, respectively,...

Physiol Rep
. 2018 Feb;
6(4).
PMID: 29479840
The genetics underlying variation in health-related musculoskeletal phenotypes can be investigated in a mouse model. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting musculoskeletal traits in the LG/J and SM/J strain lineage remain...

Learn Behav
. 2017 Nov;
46(2):198-212.
PMID: 29124570
We compared the rate of acquisition and strength of retention of conditioned context aversion (CCA) with conditioned taste aversion (CTA) using pigmented, genetically heterogeneous mice (derived from Large and Small...

Nat Genet
. 2016 Jul;
48(8):912-8.
PMID: 27376238
Two bottlenecks impeding the genetic analysis of complex traits in rodents are access to mapping populations able to deliver gene-level mapping resolution and the need for population-specific genotyping arrays and...

Nat Genet
. 2016 Jul;
48(8):919-26.
PMID: 27376237
Although mice are the most widely used mammalian model organism, genetic studies have suffered from limited mapping resolution due to extensive linkage disequilibrium (LD) that is characteristic of crosses among...

Learn Behav
. 2016 Mar;
44(4):309-319.
PMID: 26961783
It is well known that pairing of large contextual changes with illness can cause conditioned context aversion in laboratory rats. The aim of present study was to develop a paradigm...

Aging Clin Exp Res
. 2015 May;
28(1):59-67.
PMID: 25995165
Background And Aim: Mortality is a highly complex trait influenced by a wide array of genetic factors. Methods: We examined a population of 1200 mice that were F2 generation offspring...

Behav Genet
. 2015 Apr;
45(3):368-73.
PMID: 25911177
The Maudsley Reactive and Maudsley Non-Reactive strains have been selectively bred for differences in open-field defecation (OFD), a putative index of stress. We investigated whether variations in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)...

. 2014 Mar;
53(2):152-60.
PMID: 24602541
Laboratory mice preferentially rear their offspring in communal nests (CN), with all mothers contributing to maternal care and feeding of all the pups. Previous studies using primarily outbred mice have...

PMID: 23964023
Berlin high (BEH) and Berlin low (BEL) strains selected for divergent growth differ threefold in body weight. We aimed at examining muscle mass, which is a major contributor to body...
