Local Pathway Controlling Luteal Function in the Guinea Pig

Characterizing the Input-Output Function of the Olfactory-Limbic Pathway in the Guinea Pig

Nowadays the neuroscientific community is taking more and more advantage of the continuous interaction between engineers and computational neuroscientists in order to develop neuroprostheses aimed at replacing damaged brain areas with artificial devices. To this end, a technological effort is required to develop neural network models which can be fed with the recorded electrophysiological patte...

Some observations on the feeding of the guinea pig

Karyotype of Hairless Guinea pig

Chromosomal patterns of experimental animals are useful tools for cytogenetics research and animal breeding. Chromosome investigations of the hairless guinea pig are rare, therefore, karyotype of hairless guinea pigs (twelve male and female) was studied using metaphase spreads of bone marrows and G banding techniques. The chromosomes diploid number was 2n= 64 and polymorphism of three type chro...

Local uterine mechanisms affecting luteal function in the sheep.

The ovary not containing the corpus luteum was removed from each of fifty-two ewes on Day 8 of the cycle. These animals were then allocated to one of the following groups. Group 1 : (control) received no further treatment. Group 2: the contralateral uterine horn, i.e. located on the side opposite to the corpus luteum, was removed. Group 3 : the ipsilateral uterine horn, i.e. located on the same...
