The Establishment of a CSF-Contacting Nucleus “Knockout” Model Animal

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2018
To establish an entirely cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting nucleus-deficient model animal, we used cholera toxin B subunit (CB)- saporin (SAP), which is an analog of CB-HRP that specifically labels the CSF-contacting nucleus, to exclusively damage the

Crosstalk of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4a and glucocorticoid receptor in the regulation of lipid metabolism in mice fed a high-fat-high-sugar diet

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2022
Background Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR), master regulators of liver metabolism, are down-regulated in fatty liver diseases. The present study aimed to elucidate the role of down-regulation of HNF4α and GR in fatty

The tobacco chloroplast YCF4 gene is essential for transcriptional gene regulation and plants photoautotrophic growth

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
A tobacco chloroplast hypothetical open reading frame 4 (YCF4) has been reported as a non-essential assembly factor for photosynthesis based on an incomplete knockout of YCF4, just 93 of 184 amino acids from the N-terminus were knocked out.

Analysis of enamel development using murine model systems: approaches and limitations.

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
A primary goal of enamel research is to understand and potentially treat or prevent enamel defects related to amelogenesis imperfecta (AI). Rodents are ideal models to assist our understanding of how enamel is formed because they are easily genetically ...

P2X7 Purinoceptor Affects Ectopic Calcification of Dystrophic Muscles

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Ectopic calcification (EC) of myofibers is a pathological feature of muscle damage in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Mineralisation of muscle tissue occurs concomitantly with macrophage infiltration, suggesting a link between ectopic mineral ...

Loss of the actin remodeler Eps8 causes intestinal defects and improved metabolic status in mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In a variety of organisms, including mammals, caloric restriction improves metabolic status and lowers the incidence of chronic-degenerative diseases, ultimately leading to increased lifespan.

Overcoming Resistance to Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors: Targeting Serotonin, Serotonin-1A Receptors and Adult Neuroplasticity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is the most prevalent mental illness contributing to global disease burden. Selective serotonin (5-HT) reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the first-line treatment for MDD, but are only fully effective in 30% of patients and ...

Rapid-throughput skeletal phenotyping of 100 knockout mice identifies 9 new genes that determine bone strength [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Osteoporosis is a common polygenic disease and global healthcare priority but its genetic basis remains largely unknown. We report a high-throughput multi-parameter phenotype screen to identify functionally significant skeletal phenotypes in mice ...
