Analysis of microRNA knockouts in mice [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2010
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that act as potent regulators of gene expression. The discovery of miRNAs with specific temporal and spatial expression patterns revealed a hidden layer of post-transcriptional gene regulation. Furthermore, differential expression of miRNAs during disease progression identified miRNAs as relevant candidate ...

CRISPR-mediated rapid generation of neural cell-specific knockout mice facilitates research in neurophysiology and pathology

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2021
Inducible conditional knockout mice are important tools for studying gene function and disease therapy, but their generation is costly and time-consuming.

Vasculitis, Atherosclerosis, and Altered HDL Composition in Heme-Oxygenase-1-Knockout Mice

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hypertension, 2012
To elucidate roles of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in cardiovascular system, we have analyzed one-year-old HO-1-knockout mice. Homozygous HO-1-knockout mice had severe aortitis and coronary arteritis with mononuclear cellular infiltration and fatty streak ...

Production of Knockout Mice using CRISPR/Cas9 in FVB Strain

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2015
KO mice provide an excellent tool to determine roles of specific genes in biomedical filed. Traditionally, knockout mice were generated by homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells.

Recombinant BDNF rescues deficits in basal synaptic transmission and hippocampal LTP in BDNF knockout mice.

open access: yesNeuron, 1996
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is expressed at high levels in hippocampal neurons, and its expression is modulated by neural activity. Knockout mice can be used to study the roles of molecules like BDNF in synaptic plasticity with more ...

Cdk2 Knockout Mice Are Viable [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2003
Cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) and their cyclin regulatory subunits control cell growth and division. Cdk2/cyclin E complexes are thought to be required because they phosphorylate the retinoblastoma protein and drive cells through the G1/S transition into the S phase of the cell cycle.

The effect of lubricin on the gliding resistance of mouse intrasynovial tendon.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of lubricin on the gliding resistance of intrasynovial tendons by comparing lubricin knockout, heterozygous, and wild type mice.

Rab11a is required for apical protein localisation in the intestine

open access: yesBiology Open, 2014
The small GTPase Rab11 plays an important role in the recycling of proteins to the plasma membrane as well as in polarised transport in epithelial cells and neurons. We generated conditional knockout mice deficient in Rab11a.

Deficiency of MicroRNA-23-27-24 Clusters Exhibits the Impairment of Myelination in the Central Nervous System

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2023
Several microRNAs (miRNAs), including miR-23 and miR-27a have been reportedly involved in regulating myelination in the central nervous system. Although miR-23 and miR-27a form clusters in vivo and the clustered miRNAs are known to perform complementary ...

Integrins in vascular development

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
Many growth factors and their protein kinase receptors play a role in regulating vascular development. In addition, cell adhesion molecules, such as integrins and their ligands in the extracellular matrix, play important roles in the adhesion, migration,
