PRTFDC1 Is a Genetic Modifier of HPRT-Deficiency in the Mouse
Lesch-Nyhan disease (LND) is a severe X-linked neurological disorder caused by a deficiency of hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT). In contrast, HPRT-deficiency in the mouse does not result in the profound phenotypes such as self-injurious behavior observed in humans, and the genetic basis for this phenotypic disparity between HPRT-deficient ...

A Simple and Fast Battery Test for Phenotypic Characterization of Mice
Despite the great number of test batteries already known to assess the behavior of genetically modified and inbred strains of mice, only a few of them focus on basic neurological parameters.

DEVELOPMENT OF MURINE STEM CELLS WITH CONDITIONAL KNOCKOUT OF HUMANIZED SNCA GENE
α-synuclein is one of the key molecular links in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. The accumulated data indicate that pathogenic mutations in the Snca gene are associated with the development of neurodegenerative brain damage, indicating the ...

Bayesian Semiparametric Markov Renewal Mixed Models for Vocalization Syntax [PDF]
Studying the neurological, genetic and evolutionary basis of human vocal communication mechanisms is an important field of neuroscience. In the absence of high quality data on humans, mouse vocalization experiments in laboratory settings have been proven to be useful in providing valuable insights into mammalian vocal development and evolution ...

Comparative analysis of transposed element insertion within human and mouse genomes reveals Alu's unique role in shaping the human transcriptome [PDF]
Background: Transposed elements (TEs) have a substantial impact on mammalian evolution and are involved in numerous genetic diseases. We compared the impact of TEs on the human transcriptome and the mouse transcriptome. Results: We compiled a dataset of all TEs in the human and mouse genomes, identifying 3,932,058 and 3,122,416 TEs, respectively.

The PTEN/PI3K/AKT Pathway in vivo, cancer mouse models
PTEN negatively regulates PI3K signalling by dephosphorylating PIP3 to PIP2. AKT is activated downstream of PIP3 to mediate physiologic processes. Furthermore, substantial crosstalk exists with other signalling networks at all levels of the PI3K pathway.

Background: The pore-forming subunit of the cardiac sodium channel, Nav1.5, has been previously found to be mutated in genetically determined arrhythmias. Nav1.5 associates with many proteins that regulate its function and cellular localisation. In order

Adaptation and selection shape clonal evolution of tumors during residual disease and recurrence
The cellular composition of recurrent tumors can provide insight into resistance to therapy and inform on second line therapies. Here, using a genetically modified mouse, the authors perform barcoding experiments of the primary tumors to allow them to ...
