Mouse models of medulloblastoma [PDF]
Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor. Despite its prevalence and importance in pediatric neuro-oncology, the genes and pathways responsible for its initiation, maintenance, and progression remain poorly understood. Genetically engineered mouse models are an essential tool for uncovering the molecular and cellular basis of ...

Hemostasis is the normal process that produces a blood clot at a site of vascular injury. Mice are widely used to study hemostasis and abnormalities of blood coagulation because their hemostatic system is similar in most respects to that of humans, and their genomes can be easily manipulated to create models of inherited human coagulation disorders ...

Mouse models of the laminopathies [PDF]
The A and B type lamins are nuclear intermediate filament proteins that comprise the bulk of the nuclear lamina, a thin proteinaceous structure underlying the inner nuclear membrane. The A type lamins are encoded by the lamin A gene (LMNA). Mutations in this gene have been linked to at least nine diseases, including the progeroid diseases Hutchinson ...
