Genetically modified mouse models to study hepatic neutral lipid mobilization. [PDF]
Excessive accumulation of triacylglycerol is the common denominator of a wide range of clinical pathologies of liver diseases, termed non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Such excessive triacylglycerol deposition in the liver is also referred to as hepatic steatosis.

Conserving, distributing and managing genetically modified mouse lines by sperm cryopreservation. [PDF]
Sperm from C57BL/6 mice are difficult to cryopreserve and recover. Yet, the majority of genetically modified (GM) lines are maintained on this genetic background.Reported here is the development of an easily implemented method that consistently yields ...
