Reduced Dietary Protein Induces Changes in the Dental Proteome
Low dietary protein (10%) from normal (20%) does change protein expression in tooth proteome and alter developmental pathways. Among the significant protein expressions changes are actin‐based myosins, tooth, and bone development proteins. Perplexingly tooth size is not altered, suggesting more nuanced phenotypic response to low dietary protein in ...

Lack of class I H-2 antigens in cells transformed by radiation leukemia virus is associated with methylation and rearrangement of H-2 DNA [PDF]
Transformation of murine thymocytes by radiation leukemia virus is associated with reduced expression of the class I antigens encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and increased methylation and altered restriction enzyme patterns of MHC ...

Lymphatic topology reveals a novel intranodal lympho‐venous shunt
Abstract Understanding the lymphatic network is crucial for immunological research. Currently, a complete map of lymphatic drainage in mice is lacking. We present a detailed lymphatic system flow dynamic of two mouse strains with swollen lymph nodes (LNs), using region‐specific tracer injection and high‐resolution micro‐CT imaging to characterize LN ...

Copy number variants and selective sweeps in natural populations of the house mouse (Mus musculus domesticus) [PDF]
Copy–number variants (CNVs) may play an important role in early adaptations, potentially facilitating rapid divergence of populations. We describe an approach to study this question by investigating CNVs present in natural populations of mice in the ...

Microtubule Inner Protein CFAP77 Contributes to Sperm Motility and Male Fertility in Mice
ABSTRACT Background Sperm motility is essential for male fertility, and its regulation is dependent on the structural integrity of the axoneme. The axoneme consists of a conserved “9+2” microtubule arrangement and is supported by microtubule inner proteins. However, the functional significance of many microtubule inner proteins remains unclear.

Conditioned place preference and locomotor activity in response to methylphenidate, amphetamine and cocaine in mice lacking dopamine D4 receptors [PDF]
Methylphenidate (MP) and amphetamine (AMPH) are the most frequently prescribed medications for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

High serum cholesterol is linked to colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM) subtypes with poor survival (replacement pattern). Levels of cholesterol under 4 mmol·L−1 correlated with better survival and a desmoplastic pattern subtype. Furthermore, in vivo PCSK9 inhibitor evolocumab, which lowers cholesterol, reduced liver metastases.

Predominant contribution of cis-regulatory divergence in the evolution of mouse alternative splicing [PDF]
Divergence of alternative splicing represents one of the major driving forces to shape phenotypic diversity during evolution. However, the extent to which these divergences could be explained by the evolving cis-regulatory versus trans-acting factors ...

Computational modelling and in vitro liver cell experiments indicate that medium‐chain acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency causes an accumulation of (especially medium‐chain) acyl‐CoAs at the cost of free CoA (CoASH). A substantial decrease in CoASH impairs flux through many pathways essential for energy homeostasis.

Detection and Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci that Determine Responsiveness [PDF]
Exposure to 70% N2O evokes a robust antinociceptive effect in C57BL/6 (B6) but not in DBA/2 (D2) inbred mice. This study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) in the mouse genome that might determine responsiveness to N2O.
