Rattus norvegicus (Norway rat)

The Norway rat is an important experimental model for many human disease, including arthritis, hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases.

Lineage: Eukaryota[15557]; Metazoa[7782]; Chordata[3579]; Craniata[3544]; Vertebrata[3544]; Euteleostomi[3500]; Mammalia[873]; Eutheria[699]; Euarchontoglires[338]; Glires[143]; Rodentia[134]; Myomorpha[82]; Muroidea[77]; Muridae[35]; Murinae[25]; Rattus[2]; Rattus norvegicus[1]

Although considered a pest and major health threat by many, the rat is an important model organism to help understand human physiology and disease.
