The laboratory mouse or lab mouse is a small mammal of the order Rodentia which is bred and used for scientific research or feeders for certain pets. Laboratory mice are usually of the species Mus ...

Laboratory mice are deliberately making mistakes during experiments and annoying the scientists watching them. The humble lab ...

Researchers have created genome-wide, high-resolution genetic maps of 100 inbred mouse strains. Compared with wild-derived strains, most of today's classical lab strains have limited genetic diversity ...

To determine the proper cage for a laboratory mouse, one must consider cage characteristics with regard to animal growth, morbidity rates, mortality rates, and reproductive performance 10.

Researchers should consider stress as a potential variable in studies 7, and environmental enrichment can reduce stress in laboratory rats and mice. Measurable parameters considered to be linked ...

Scientists in China have manipulated embryonic stem cells to create laboratory mice with two male parents that managed to live to adulthood – though with significant developmental abnormalities – in ...

Scientists in China have engineered embryonic stem cells to produce lab mice with two male parents. Though these mice reached adulthood with developmental issues, the method offers insights into ...

Researchers at Cedars-Sinai developed PR-364, a drug that prevented heart failure in mice after heart attacks. The treatment ...

Many of our transgenic lines come from the Jackson Laboratories, an NIH-supported repository for genetically engineered mice. All of our published lines are available either through Jax or the related ...
