Exploring the molecular mechanism of comorbidity of autism spectrum disorder and inflammatory bowel disease by combining multiple data sets [PDF]
Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is difficult to diagnose. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a common chronic digestive disease. Previous studies have shown a potential correlation between ASD and IBD, but

Hypertension reduces soluble guanylyl cyclase expression in the mouse aorta via the Notch signaling pathway [PDF]
Hypertension is a dominating risk factor for cardiovascular disease. To characterize the genomic response to hypertension, we administered vehicle or angiotensin II to mice and performed gene expression analyses.

PRDM16 expression and function in mammalian cochlear development
Abstract Background PR domain containing 16 (PRDM16) is a key transcriptional regulator in the development of craniofacial, adipose, and neural tissues. Our lab identified PRDM16 expression in the epithelial cells of the Kölliker's organ (KO) that starts at ~E13.5 and is maintained until KO disappearance.

Methylation refers to DNA markers responsible for gene‐activation. It is investigated if methylation changed in response to maternal folate intake during pregnancy. Eight genes have increased (hyper)methylation in fetal and adult mouse liver in response to maternal folate depletion.

Cultures of rat precision cut liver slices (PCLS) were used for ex vivo blood vessel function analysis via live recording. The sGC activator BI703704 differentiates from the sGC stimulator Riociguat in the prevention of serotonin induced blood vessel contraction of normal and fibrotic rat liver slices.

Complex control of GABA(A) receptor subunit mRNA expression: variation, covariation, and genetic regulation. [PDF]
GABA type-A receptors are essential for fast inhibitory neurotransmission and are critical in brain function. Surprisingly, expression of receptor subunits is highly variable among individuals, but the cause and impact of this fluctuation remains unknown.
