… Heating was provided from the ventral side. The breathing rate, heart rate and oxygen saturation were monitored during the whole experiment using an MRI-compatible pulse oxymeter (MouseOx TM, Starr Life Sciences Corp. Pittsburgh PA, USA). … To study how a synchronized activation of two independent pathways affects the fMRI response in a common targeted […]
… Animals were temporarily anesthetized with 2% isofluorane from a precision vaporizer (Midmark, Versailles, OH) through a nose cone and oxygen saturation was measured in the thigh using a MouseOx oximeter (Starr Life Sciences, Oakmont, PA). … Under steady state conditions, erythropoiesis occurs in the bone marrow. However, in mice, stress or tissue hypoxia results […]
… Heart rate, respiratory rate (breaths/min), plethysmography, and oxygen saturation (%) were monitored (via hind leg sensor) and recorded throughout the experiment using a pulse oximeter system (MouseOx, Starr life sciences, Oakmont, PA, USA) (Table 1). To maintain breath … The brain is dependent on glucose as a primary energy substrate, but is capable of […]
… Their heart rates, breathing rates, and pulse oximeter oxygen saturations were monitored continuously and noninvasively using a MouseOX Murine Plus Oximeter System (Starr Life Sciences Corporation, Oakmont, PA, USA) as we did before (Li and Zuo, 2011). … Electroacupuncture has been shown to induce a preconditioning effect in the brain. The mechanisms for this […]
… Prior to sacrifice, at 16 weeks post-XRT, pulse oximetry was performed, as previously described [20], on conscious mice (n=5/group) using a MouseOx non-invasive vital signs monitor (STARR Life Sciences Corp., Oakmont, PA). … Background: Wholegrain flaxseed (FS), and its lignan component (FLC) consisting mainly of secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG), have potent lung radioprotective properties while […]
… Heart rate measurement of anesthetized mice. Heart rates of isoflurane-anesthetized mice (1.3 %) were continuously non-invasively monitored using a MouseOX Murine Plus Oximeter System (Starr Life Sciences Corporation, Oakmont, PA). … Parasympathetic tone is a dominant neural regulator for basal heart rate. Glutamate transporters (EAAT) via their glutamate uptake functions regulate glutamate neurotransmission in […]
