For example, the harmful neurological side-effects of some novel anti-cancer agents on CH mice are diminished or even abolished in mice in less poor conditions [117]; in stroke research, epidermal growth factor does not improve recovery in CH rats, but does for rats in improved housing [118]; and flu vaccines which elicit only weak antigen-specific immunity in CH mice, have much greater benefits in better-housed conspecifics [119]. The gene discussed is EGF; the disease is Stroke.
