Do you have a source to show that inbreed mice have higher resistance to toxic drugs? I’d be interested to read it.

- mikewarot 4y agoI'm relaying what I understand to be the truth, which obviously could be wrong. The pieces seem to be out there, as near as I (a person who never studied biology) can tell Example: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/10915818211009844 https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/10915818211009... Telomere Length and Arsenic: Improving Animal Models of Toxicity by Choosing Mice With Shorter Telomeres The abstract discusses telomere length and sensitivity to arsenic toxicity. If my understanding is wrong, I'd be interested in guidance to correct it. I'm interested in understanding how things really work, and Weinstein's explanations (before the Covid thing hit) made sense of otherwise paradoxical facts.
