Unlocking the Secrets of Gut Microbiota and Host Energy Metabolism: A Novel Approach with PhenoMaster-based Isolator System

Unlocking the Secrets of Gut Microbiota and Host Energy Metabolism: A Novel Approach with PhenoMaster-based Isolator System

The gut microbiota plays a vital role in regulating the host’s energy metabolism. Until recently, studies have shown that mice without microbiota accumulate less fat and are protected from obesity induced by high-fat diet. Several proposed mechanisms suggest that the interaction between gut microbiota and host energy metabolism is a complex process with multiple factors…

Why MotoRater is the best choice for advanced kinematic gait analysis

Why MotoRater is the best choice for advanced kinematic gait analysis

Rodent (rats and mice) kinematic gait analysis is a fundamental approach to exhibit genomic and neuro-de/re-generative preclinical research. Recent advancements in technologies and analytic tools now grant a new step towards a fully automatic qualitative and quantitative kinematic gait analysis of observational gait such as foot-tracking systems or marker-based motion capture systems. In existing footprint…

The power of mice genetics: advancing life science research and tackling society’s biggest health challenges.

The power of mice genetics: advancing life science research and tackling society’s biggest health challenges.

Mice are incredibly similar to humans, sharing around 97.5% of their working DNA. That’s why genetically engineered mice have become an essential tool for investigating disease genetics and testing new drugs. Through mouse phenotyping studies, researchers can analyze the biological properties of mice with specific genes modified, added, or removed, providing valuable insights into the…

Go beyond and make your research much more data-rich and clinically relevant

Go beyond and make your research much more data-rich and clinically relevant

In 1995, Christopher Reeve, best known for playing Superman in movies, was injured in a horse-riding accident that left him paralyzed from the neck down. Kinematics helped him regain some of his mobility by understanding his body’s motions and providing customized solutions for his rehabilitation. Through this example, we can see how kinematics can empower…
