Role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase isoforms in murine skin inflammation induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate [PDF]
p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase plays a pivotal role in skin inflammation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the various p38 isoforms. p38 beta/delta-knockout-C57BL/6 mice were generated, studied in a 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol

Knockout Corner: Knockout mice for monoamine oxidase A [PDF]
A line of transgenic mice was isolated in which transgene integration had caused a deletion in the gene encoding monoamine oxidase A, an enzyme that degrades serotonin and norepinephrine. This has provided an animal model of MAOA deficiency in humans, a condition characterized by borderline mental retardation and impulsive aggression.

Non-catalytic Roles of Tet2 Are Essential to Regulate Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cell Homeostasis [PDF]
The Ten-eleven translocation (TET) enzymes regulate gene expression by promoting DNA demethylation and partnering with chromatin modifiers. TET2, a member of this family, is frequently mutated in hematological disorders.

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

Rab11a is required for apical protein localisation in the intestine
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.
