and Discussion. A literature review was conducted using PubMed from 1963 to October 2013 relating effects of flavonoids on experimentally-induced seizures in rodents. Articles chosen for references were queried with the following prompts: “flavonoids and epilepsy”, “flavonoids and seizures”, “plant polyphenols and epilepsy”, and “plant polyphenols and seizures”. Out of 84 reports 32 pharmacological studies with chemically well-defined flavonoids and

Francisella tularensis is an intracellular bacterial pathogen which causes a potentially lethal disease named tularemia. Some studies have been conducted to describe and identify the virulence factors of F. tularensis. This pathogen is able to infect a variety of cells of various hosts, including wild animals, especially rabbits, hares and rodents, and humans. This may suggest that genes of F. tularensis must adapt to many different intraorganismal environments. Still, little is known about the

differences (dogs, cats, non-human primates) often resulted in contradictory findings. This led to the standardization of experimental procedures and the use of laboratory rodents. Rats have become the most commonly used laboratory animals due to several similarities with humans in the pathophysiology and recovery processes experienced after traumatic SCI (Rosenzweig and McDonald, 2004). Despite the indisputable benefits of rat experiments, there are certain limits that have to be considered before

flow. Therefore, an experimental cerebral hypoperfused animal model is needed for understanding the association between CBF and WM alterations.
In this systematic review, we aim to evaluate the association between cerebral hypoperfusion and WM changes in rodents by we meta-analyzed on published studies on the measurements of CBF and the total volume of WM in cerebral hypoperfusion model mice and aging mice.
Systematic review, data collection and analysis
This meta-analysis was conducted according

Oxaliplatin is a third-generation, platinum-based antitumor drug used to treat colorectal cancer. Since its main adverse effect is neuropathic pain resulting from chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), this drug is used to study the neurobiology of CIPN in rodents and to search for analgesics that could attenuate neuropathic pain symptoms – cold and tactile allodynia that develop in most of the oxaliplatin-treated subjects. In this research, testing across various temperatures, we

to 45 kHz. These frequencies are in the range of normal vocalization of rodents, with frequencies of 20–25 kHz being associated with a negative “emotional state” in rats, as they are produced by animals during pain stimulation and defeat in a fight (Litvin et al., 2007). Vocalizations of 40–45 kHz are identified as being “emotionally positive” since they are associated with food stimulation and coitus in rats (Brudzynski et al., 2007). Different frequencies are given randomly, which prevents
