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

Development of an ex vivo model for the study of cerebrovascular function utilizing isolated mouse olfactory artery [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Cerebral vessels, such as intracerebral perforating arterioles isolated from rat brain, have been widely used as an ex vivo model to study the cerebrovascular function associated with cerebrovascular disorders and the therapeutic effects of ...

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.

Prospects for transgenesis in the chick [PDF]
Research to develop a useful method for genetic modification of the chick has been on-going since the first demonstrations in the mouse in the 1980s that genetic modification is an invaluable tool for the study of gene function. Manipulation of the chick

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 ...

Immunocompetent murine models for the study of glioblastoma immunotherapy. [PDF]
Glioblastoma remains a lethal diagnosis with a 5-year survival rate of less than 10%. (NEJM 352:987-96, 2005) Although immunotherapy-based approaches are capable of inducing detectable immune responses against tumor-specific antigens, improvements in ...

Genetic‐Genomic Replication to Identify Candidate Mouse Atherosclerosis Modifier Genes [PDF]
Objective Genetics plays a large role in atherosclerosis susceptibility in humans and mice. We attempted to confirm previously determined mouse atherosclerosis‐associated loci and use bioinformatics and transcriptomics to create a catalog of candidate atherosclerosis modifier genes at these loci.

Manipulations with early mouse embryos for generation of genetically modified animals
Recently, genome-editing technologies have become more efficient and accessible. The discovery of nucleases for directional genome editing (CRISPR/Cas9, TALEN, ZFNs) significantly accelerated and simplified the production of mice with targeted gene ...
