Absence of BBSome function leads to astrocyte reactivity in the brain
In humans, dysfunctional primary cilia result in Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS), which presents with clinical features including intellectual disabilities, obesity, and retinal degeneration, and, in mouse models, the added feature of hydrocephalus.

The mouse set conjecture for sets of reals [PDF]
Recall that the Mouse Set Conjecture says that under AD++V=L(P(R)), a real is ordinal definable if and only if it belongs to an iterable mouse. The Mouse Set Conjecture for sets of reals says that under the same theory, a set of reals is ordinal definable from a real if and only if it belongs to a mouse over the reals.

Production of knockout mouse lines with Cas9
Knockout mice are used extensively to explore the phenotypic effects of mammalian gene dysfunction. With the application of RNA-guided Cas9 nuclease technology for the production of knockout mouse lines, the time, as well as the resources needed, to progress from identification of a gene of interest to production of a knockout line is significantly ...

GSK3 influences social preference and anxiety-related behaviors during social interaction in a mouse model of fragile X syndrome and autism. [PDF]
Nearly 1% of children in the United States exhibit autism spectrum disorders, but causes and treatments remain to be identified. Mice with deletion of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (Fmr1) gene are used to model autism because loss of Fmr1 gene ...

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

Impact of taurine depletion on glucose control and insulin secretion in mice
Taurine, an endogenous sulfur-containing amino acid, is found in millimolar concentrations in mammalian tissue, and its tissue content is altered by diet, disease and aging.

How to Design a Stable Serial Knockout Competition [PDF]
We investigate a new tournament format that consists of a series of individual knockout tournaments; we call this new format a Serial Knockout Competition (SKC). This format has recently been adopted by the Professional Darts Corporation. Depending on the seedings of the players used for each of the knockout tournaments, players can meet in the various
