Functional deficits in PAK5, PAK6 and PAK5/PAK6 knockout mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The p21-activated kinases are effector proteins for Rho-family GTPases. PAK4, PAK5, and PAK6 are the group II PAKs associated with neurite outgrowth, filopodia formation, and cell survival.

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

open access: yesMolecular Therapy - Methods and 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.

Approaches for timeline reductions in pathogenesis studies using genetically modified mice

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Although genetically modified mouse models have long been a powerful tool for microbiology research, the manipulation of the mouse genome is expensive, time consuming, and has historically remained the domain of dedicated animal facilities.

Targeted disruption of the mouse testis-enriched gene Znf230 does not affect spermatogenesis or fertility [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2014
The mouse testis-enriched Znf230 gene, which encodes a type of RING finger protein, is present primarily in the nuclei of spermatogonia, the acrosome and the tail of spermatozoa.

Sleep in Kcna2 knockout mice [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2007
Abstract Background Shaker codes for a Drosophila voltage-dependent potassium channel. Flies carrying Shaker null or hypomorphic mutations sleep 3–4 h/day instead of 8–14 h/day as their wild-type siblings do. Shaker-like channels are conserved across species but it is unknown whether they affect sleep

Rapid Way to Generate Mouse Models for In Vivo Studies of the Endothelium

open access: yesJournal of Lipid and Atherosclerosis, 2021
A single layer of squamous endothelial cells (ECs), the endothelium, regulates the flow of substance and fluid into and out of a tissue. The endothelium is also involved in vasculogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, which is a crucial process ...

The Endogenous Alterations of the Gut Microbiota and Feces Metabolites Alleviate Oxidative Damage in the Brain of LanCL1 Knockout Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Altered composition of the gut microbiota has been observed in many neurodegenerative diseases. LanCL1 has been proven to protect neurons and reduce oxidative stress.

Altered reward circuitry in the norepinephrine transporter knockout mouse. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Synaptic levels of the monoamine neurotransmitters dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine are modulated by their respective plasma membrane transporters, albeit with a few exceptions.
