The Impact of Toll‐Like Receptor 5 on Liver Function in Age‐Related Metabolic Disorders
Aging Cell, EarlyView.Toll‐like receptor 5 (TLR5) deficiency accelerates age‐related metabolic disorders, leading to obesity, fatty liver, and cellular changes such as lipid accumulation in PMHs (hepatocytes) and activation of HSCs (hepatic stellate cells), which drive fibrosis.

Stem Cell Reports, 2018 C57BL/6J and C57BL/6N inbred mice are widely, and often interchangeably, used for stem cell research; yet, these substrains harbor discrete genetic differences that can cause phenotypic disparities.

mGluR5 Knockout mice exhibit normal conditioned place-preference to cocaine [PDF]
, 2012 Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) null mutant (-/-) mice have been reported to totally lack the rein- forcing or locomotor stimulating effects of cocaine. We tested mGluR5 -/- and +/+ mice for their locomotor and conditioned place- preference response to cocaine.

Aging Cell, EarlyView.The effects of the mitochondria‐targeted peptide therapeutic elamipretide on age‐related muscle function were compared with its effects on molecular biomarkers of aging. It was found that elamipretide treatment partially reverses age‐related cardiac dysfunction and skeletal muscle weakness in mice without significantly affecting muscle epigenetic or ...

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2007 Background A major event in the post-meiotic development of male germ cells is the formation of the acrosome. This process can be perturbed in C57BL/6 mice by administration of the small molecule miglustat (N-butyldeoxynojirimycin, NB-DNJ). The miglustat-

High-Density Genotypes of Inbred Mouse Strains: Improved Power and Precision of Association Mapping. [PDF]
, 2015 Human genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of loci associated with disease phenotypes. Genome-wide association studies also have become feasible using rodent models and these have some important advantages over human studies ...

Aging Cell, EarlyView.Multi‐ciliated cells in the infundibulum and ampulla (INF/AMP) epithelium are vacuolated in aging. Unique cellular susceptibility of the INF/AMP epithelial population and aging‐associated decline in ovarian artery circulation, which supports the ovary and INF/AMP, contribute to this region‐specific vacuolation phenotype, as a consequence of a mildly ...

Interfrontal Bone Among Inbred Strains of Mice and QTL Mapping
Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 The interfrontal bone (IF) is a minor skeletal trait residing between the frontal bones. IF is considered a quasi-continuous trait. Genetic and environmental factors appear to play roles in its development. The mechanism(s) underlying IF bone development

LPS resistance of SPRET/Ei mice is mediated by Gilz, encoded by the Tsc22d3 gene on the X chromosome [PDF]
, 2013 Natural variation for LPS-induced lethal inflammation in mice is useful for identifying new genes that regulate sepsis, which could form the basis for novel therapies for systemic inflammation in humans.

Targeting IGF1‐Induced Cellular Senescence to Rejuvenate Hair Follicle Aging
Aging Cell, EarlyView.Age‐related increases in IGF‐1 expression in the skin accelerate stem cell exhaustion and senescence by impairing SIRT1 function, ultimately driving hair follicle aging. Conversely, activating SIRT1, clearing senescent cells, or adopting dietary restriction can mitigate excessive IGF‐1 signaling and provide a promising strategy to rejuvenate hair ...
