Our group carried out an experiment in 2016 where we delivered 75 mg/kg CsA (Neoral<sup>TM</sup>) to BALB/cJ mice by oral gavage to enable wart formation in mice, which was moderately well-tolerated. We recently commenced another study using the same dose and route of delivery of CsA in BALB/cJ mice in order to immune suppress mice to make them susceptible for mouse papillomavirus infection. We highlight in this case report that in contrast to our earlier study, we observed almost immediate unexpected toxicity and had to terminate the recent experiment after only five days of treatment. Seven to eight-week-old female BALB/cJ mice were treated with 75 mg/kg of CsA by oral gavage daily for five days before treatment was stopped due to body weight loss and mice becoming moribund. The probability of survival of the mice following CsA treatment was 80% in this study, compared with 98% in our 2016 study. Mice showed signs of probable acute kidney injury, which was reversible following withdrawal of CsA. Although it is unclear why the clinical response to CsA in BALB/cJ mice differed markedly between the two experiments, this case report highlights the risk of CsA to mouse welfare. CD3 depletion has been used rather than CsA treatment in other studies and should be considered as an alternative to CsA treatment as it is immune-selective, and may be more effective at enabling wart formation in mice.</p>","PeriodicalId":18013,"journal":{"name":"Laboratory Animals","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10116582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research into understanding and treating hearing disabilities has increased significantly in recent years. One of the most relevant animal species in this context is the guinea pig, which has to be deafened to study several of the hearing pathologies and develop novel therapies. Applying kanamycin subcutaneously and furosemide intravenously is a long-established method in hearing research, leading to permanent hearing loss without surgical intervention at the ear. The intravenous application of furosemide requires invasive surgery in the cervical area of the animals to expose the jugular vein, since a relatively large volume (1 ml per 500 g body weight) must be injected over a period of about 2.5 min. We have established a gentler alternative by applying the furosemide by puncture of the leg veins. For this, custom-made cannula-needle devices were built to allow the vein puncture and subsequent slow injection of the furosemide. This approach was tested in 11 guinea pigs through the foreleg via the cephalic antebrachial vein and through the hind leg via the saphenous vein. Frequency-specific hearing thresholds were measured before and after the procedure to verify normal hearing and successful deafening, respectively. The novel approach of systemic deafening was successfully implemented in 10 out of 11 animals. The <i>Vena saphena</i> was best suited to the application. Since the animals' condition, post leg vein application, was better in comparison to animals deafened by exposure of the <i>Vena jugularis</i>, the postulated refinement that reduced animal stress was deemed successful.</p>","PeriodicalId":18013,"journal":{"name":"Laboratory Animals","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9317674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, live cephalopods are shared and transported between different stakeholders and laboratories across Europe and other continents. Despite existing European and national legislation, codes, guidelines and reports from independent organisations, a set of recommendations specifically addressing the requirements for the capture and transport of animals belonging to this taxon are missing. In addition, although training and development of competence for all people involved in the supply chain are essential and aim to ensure that animals do not suffer from pain, distress or lasting harm, the requirements for those capturing and transporting wild cephalopods have not been considered. This Working Group reviewed the current literature to recognise scientific evidence and the best practice, and compiled a set of recommendations to provide guidance on the ‘techniques’ to be used for the capture and transport of live cephalopods for their use in scientific procedures.
