Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to validate the house shrew (Suncus murinus) as laboratory model animal for cutaneous wound experiment from the morphological viewpoint. The movability of the suncus's skin is attributed to the multilayered development of cutaneous trunk muscles and the deficiency of subcutaneous adipose. In the dorsal trunk, the longitudinal arterial tracts lined bilaterally along the spinalcolumn. In accord with these morphological features of subcutaneous structure, the utilization of suncus for cutaneous wound experiment is considered to have comparative zoological value.
