Lsh/HELLS regulates self-renewal/proliferation of neural stem/progenitor cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Epigenetic mechanisms are known to exert control over gene expression and determine cell fate. Genetic mutations in epigenetic regulators are responsible for several neurologic disorders.

GENERATION OF MOUSE INDUCED PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS BY PROTEIN TRANSDUCTION. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Somatic cell reprogramming has generated enormous interest after the first report by Yamanaka and his coworkers in 2006 on the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from mouse fibroblasts. Here we report the generation of stable iPSCs from

Synthetic viability by BRCA2 and PARP1/ARTD1 deficiencies

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The PARP inhibitor olaparib is an approved treatment method for women with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation associated cancers. Here the authors show that olaparib can contribute to synthetic viability of cells if PARP1 is inhibited before BRCA2 loss.

Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) specifically potentiates c-MYC-mediated transcription independently of the canonical heat shock response

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Despite its pivotal roles in biology, how the transcriptional activity of c-MYC is tuned quantitatively remains poorly defined. Here, we show that heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), the master transcriptional regulator of the heat shock response, acts ...

Developmental Changes in the ECG of a Hamster Model of Muscular Dystrophy and Heart Failure

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2012
Aberrant autonomic signaling is being increasingly recognized as an important symptom in neuromuscular disorders. The delta-sarcoglycan-deficient BIO TO-2 hamster is recognized as a good model for studying mechanistic pathways and sequelae in muscular ...

Cancer cell survival depends on collagen uptake into tumor-associated stroma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Collagen can be a metabolic source to fuel cancer growth. Here the authors show that cell surface protein TEM8 mediates the binding and uptake of collagen in stromal cells and these cells processed the collagen to glutamine, providing an alternative ...

A mouse model of hypoplastic left heart syndrome demonstrating left heart hypoplasia and retrograde aortic arch flow

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
In hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), the mechanisms leading to left heart hypoplasia and their associated fetal abnormalities are largely unknown.

Seven-fluorochrome mouse M-FISH for high-resolution analysis of interchromosomal rearrangements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The mouse has evolved to be the primary mammalian genetic model organism. Important applications include the modeling of human cancer and cloning experiments. In both settings, a detailed analysis of the mouse genome is essential.

Enhanced gene trapping in mouse embryonic stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Gene trapping is used to introduce insertional mutations into genes of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). It is performed with gene trap vectors that simultaneously mutate and report the expression of the endogenous gene at the site of insertion and ...
