Developmental timing of CCM2 loss influences cerebral cavernous malformations in mice [PDF]
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) are vascular malformations of the central nervous system (CNS) that lead to cerebral hemorrhages. Familial CCM occurs as an autosomal dominant condition caused by loss-of-function mutations in one of the three CCM genes.

Targeting miR-27a/VE-cadherin interactions rescues cerebral cavernous malformations in mice.
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions predominantly developing in the central nervous system (CNS), with no effective treatments other than surgery.

Linkage to the CCM2 Locus and Genetic Heterogeneity in Familial Cerebral Cavernous Malformation [PDF]
ABSTRACT:Background:Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a form of intracranial vascular disease that may arise sporadically or be dominantly inherited. Linkage studies have revealed genetic heterogeneity among the dominantly inherited forms suggesting the existence of at least three loci called CCM1, CCM2 and CCM3.Methods:In the present study, we ...

Cerebral cavernous malformations are slow-flow thrombi-containing vessels induced by two-step inactivation of the CCM1, CCM2 or CCM3 gene within endothelial cells. They predispose to intracerebral bleedings and focal neurological deficits.

Influence of assimilating rainfall derived from WSR-88D radar on the rainstorm forecasts over the southwestern United States [PDF]
In this study, the impact of rainfall assimilation on the forecasts of convective rainfall over the mountainous areas in the southwestern United States is investigated. The rainfall is derived from the U.S.

CCM2 and CCM3 proteins contribute to vasculogenesis and angiogenesis in human placenta.
Placenta as an ideal model to study angiogenic mechanisms have been established in previous studies. There are two processes, vasculogenesis and angiogenesis, involved in blood vessel formation during placental development. Therefore, blood vessel formation is a crucial issue that might cause vascular malformations. One of the vascular malformations is

Micro-CT Imaging Reveals Mekk3 Heterozygosity Prevents Cerebral Cavernous Malformations in Ccm2-Deficient Mice. [PDF]
Mutations in CCM1 (aka KRIT1), CCM2, or CCM3 (aka PDCD10) gene cause cerebral cavernous malformation in humans. Mouse models of CCM disease have been established by deleting Ccm genes in postnatal animals.
