Impact of Mesotherapy with Sodium Deoxycholate on Liver: Metabolic- and Sex-Specific Insights in Swiss mice

This study examines the effects of sodium deoxycholate mesotherapy on liver and metabolic parameters in Swiss mice under fructose consumption, finding no significant impact on weight or metabolism but some liver inflammation.

Perivascular Adipose Tissue: Quantitative analysis by morphometry and stereology in rodents

The paper quantifies perivascular adipose tissue morphology in rodents using morphometry and stereology, showing species differences in adipocyte size and lipid droplet characteristics.

Drug delivery to rodents: how to deal with body mass and water intake fluctuations?

This study investigates how body mass and water intake fluctuations affect drug delivery via drinking water in mice, finding that unadjusted dosing leads to variable drug intake.

Kidney osteoclast factors and matrix metalloproteinase expression in a mice model of diet-induced obesity and diabetes.

This study examines if diet-induced obesity and diabetes in mice affect RANKL/RANK/OPG system and MMP expression in the kidney, finding no changes in protein expression despite histopathological changes.

Brown adipose tissue remodeling precedes cardiometabolic abnormalities independent of overweight in fructose-fed mice

This study shows that short-term fructose feeding in mice causes fat redistribution, BAT-to-visceral fat proportion changes, and BAT remodeling with enlarged lipid droplets, before metabolic dysfunction.

Does gender influence cardiovascular remodeling in C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat, high-sucrose, high-salt diet?

This study examines how gender affects cardiovascular remodeling in C57BL/6J mice on a high-fat, high-sucrose, high-salt diet, finding sexual dimorphism in adiposity, heart hypertrophy, and arterial remodeling.
