Mouse intragastric infusion (iG) model. | LitMetric

Mouse intragastric infusion (iG) model.

Nat Protoc

Southern California Research Center for ALPD and Cirrhosis, Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, USA.

Published: March 2012

Direct intragastric delivery of a diet, nutrient or test substance can be achieved in rodents (mice and rats) on a long-term (2-3 months) basis using a chronically implanted gastrostomy catheter and a flow-through swivel system. This rodent intragastric infusion (iG) model has broad applications in research on food intake, gastrointestinal (GI) physiology, GI neuroendocrinology, drug metabolism and toxicity, obesity and liver disease. It achieves maximal control over the rate and pattern of delivery and it can be combined with normal ad libitum feeding of solid diet if so desired. It may be adopted to achieve infusion at other sites of the GI system to test the role of a bypassed GI segment in neuroendocrine physiology, and its use in genetic mouse models facilitates the genetic analysis of a central question under investigation.

Phytomedicine

April 2025

West China Centre of Excellence for Pancreatitis, Institute of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, West China-Liverpool Biomedical Research Centre, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, PR China. Electronic address:

Background: Whether circulating histones in gut lymph contribute to organ failure and impact of chaiqin chengqi decoction (CQCQD) on histones in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) remain elusive.

Purpose: To verify the role of histones in gut lymph of SAP and evaluate the effect of the CQCQD on them.

Methods: Sodium taurocholate was retrogradely infused into pancreatobiliary duct to induce SAP in rodents.

Helicobacter pylori CagA+ strains modulate colorectal pathology by regulating intestinal flora.

BMC Gastroenterol

February 2025

Clinical Laboratory, Binzhou People's Hospital, No.515, Huangheqi Road, Bincheng District, Binzhou, Shandong Province, 256610, P. R. China.

Aim: This article aims to investigate the role of Helicobacter Pylori (HP) CagA+ strains affected colorectal lesion via gut microbiota.

Method: 6-week C57BL/6J mice were divided into: (a) HP CagA+ group undergoing HP CagA+ strains administration by gavage at 0.2 mL for 10 days; (b) HP CagA- group undergoing HP CagA- strains administration by gavage at 0.

An Update on Animal Models of Alcohol-Associated Liver Disease.

Am J Pathol

January 2025

Department of Pharmacology, Toxicology and Therapeutics, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kansas; Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology & Mobility, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kansas. Electronic address:

Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a significant global health concern and a leading cause of liver disease-related deaths. However, the treatment options are limited due to the lack of animal models that accurately replicate ALD pathogenesis. An ideal ALD animal model should have pathological characteristics similar to those of human ALD, with a clear pathological process and ease of drug intervention.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how the toxic compound 2.6-di(propan-2-yl)phenol distributes in warm-blooded rats after fatal poisoning through ingestion.
  • The research involved administering a high dose of the compound to Wistar male rats, followed by various extraction and identification techniques to analyze its presence in different body tissues and fluids after death.
  • Results indicated that the highest concentration of the compound was found in the stomach contents, tissues, heart, and spleen, demonstrating where the substance accumulates in cases of poisoning.

Development of novel rectal/uterine clamping device.

Sci Rep

October 2024

Department of Next Generation Endoscopic Intervention (Project ENGINE), Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, Suite 0802, BioSystems Bldg., 1-3, Yamadaoka, Osaka, 565-0871, Osaka, Japan.

Article Synopsis
  • A new clamping device for laparoscopic surgery was created, which avoids the traditional pinch mechanism and offers uniform occlusion of ductal organs.
  • In tests using a porcine stomach, the new clamper outperformed the pinch-type clamper, maintaining consistent pressure without gaps even at increased intra-luminal pressures.
  • The new device demonstrated a significantly higher bursting pressure and fewer air leakages under continuous air insufflation compared to the pinch-type clamper, indicating its superior performance and potential for commercialization.
