This dataset includes 3D scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of a female mouse corpus callosum and MATLAB code for random walker (RaW) segmentations of myelinated axons. The code additionally characterizes inner axonal diameters and fiber orientation dispersion within segments of the intra-axonal spaces and myelin sheaths. In the study, a female 8-week-old C57BL/6 mouse was perfused trans-cardiacally...

The dataset contains data collected from twelve Balb/c mice with metastatic breast cancer (4T1 mammary tumors). Six mice were in the control group and six mice were treated with 5-Fluorouracil (5FU) for metronomic chemotherapy for two weeks. Diffusion MRI (dMRI) and Dynamic Contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) images were collected at baseline and post-treatment. Immunohistochemically (IHC) stains and measurements...

Dopamine is a critical modulator of brain circuits that control voluntary movements. However, its influence on the activity of target neurons in vivo remains limited. In this study, two-photon microscopy was used to monitor the activity of direct and indirect-pathway spiny projection neurons (SPNs) simultaneously in the striatum of behaving mice. The striatum mainly consists of two large populations...

This dataset showed that mitovesicles, extracellular vesicles (EVs) of mitochondrial origin, are altered in Down syndrome (DS). Mitochondrial dysfunction is a distinctive feature of aging and neurodegenerative disorders, such as DS and Alzheimer’s disease. For this study, a high-resolution density gradient separation of EVs isolated from murine and human DS and diploid control brains was used. Using...

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is caused by changes in FMR1 gene, which leads to transcriptional silencing and loss of its protein product fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP). For this study, proteomic experiments were performed to investigate the de novo translational profile in FXS model mice is altered at steady state and in response to metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) stimulation. Altered...

Arboviruses are caused by a group of viruses spread to people (host) by the bite of infected insects (vector). It is within these hosts that arboviruses replicate and undergo genomic evolution. However, how arboviruses evolve, are transmitted, or cause disease in nature remain unclear. Therefore, this study established a Zika virus (ZIKV) vector-borne transmission system in immunocompromised mice to...

The data from this study shows that early-life antibiotic use may affect the progression of subsequent disease conditions by changing host microbiota and immunologic development. For this study, they used a murine model of dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis and evaluated the effect on disease outcomes of early-life pulsed antibiotic treatment (PAT). The dataset includes 16S sequencing data....

The Allen Mouse Brain Atlas is a three-dimensional atlas of gene expression throughout the adult mouse brain. The atlas is separated into four key features:In Situ Hybridization (ISH) Data includes image data with cellular level resolution. To find gene expression data, search can be performed using Gene Search, Differential Search, Fine Structure Search, Bulk Search, and Human Differential Search.Reference...

This study examined changes in membrane potential dynamics of dorsolateral striatal neurons comparing naive mice and expert mice trained to lick a reward spout in response to whisker deflection. In the study, the mice were implanted with a light-weight metal head-post and a recording chamber. The position of the DLS was stereotaxically marked at the surface of the skull and the animals were returned...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can image brain structure non-invasively and without ionizing radiation. However, inferring histopathological information from MRI remains challenging due to lack of direct links between MRI signals and cellular structures. This study showed that deep convolutional neural networks can estimate histological staining intensity directly from MRI signals developed using...
