Interactions between the NR2B receptor and CaMKII modulate synaptic plasticity and spatial learning. [PDF]
The NR2B subunit of the NMDA receptor interacts with several prominent proteins in the postsynaptic density, including calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII).

Transgenic Mice for cGMP Imaging [PDF]
Rationale: Cyclic GMP (cGMP) is an important intracellular signaling molecule in the cardiovascular system, but its spatiotemporal dynamics in vivo is largely unknown. Objective: To generate and characterize ...

Spotaneous Melanocytosis in Transgenic Mice
Clone B is a 2-kb fragment of cloned genomic DNA involved in adipocyte differentiation in vitro. Insertion of this DNA fragment into the genome of a variety of cell lines results in committing the recipient cells to undergo adipocyte differentiation.

Human Apolipoprotein B Transgenic Mice Generated with 207- and 145-Kilobase Pair Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes. Evidence that a distant 5'-element confers appropriate transgene expression in the intestine [PDF]
We reported previously that ~80-kilobase pair (kb) P1 bacteriophage clones spanning either the human or mouse apoB gene (clones p158 and p649, respectively) confer apoB expression in the liver of transgenic mice, but not in the intestine. We hypothesized

Functionalization and Characterization of Magnetic Nanoparticles for the Detection of Ferritin Accumulation in Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
Early diagnosis in Alzheimer's disease (AD), prior to the appearance of marked clinical symptoms, is critical to prevent irreversible neuronal damage and neural malfunction that lead to dementia and death.

Reduced antioxidant enzyme activity in brains of mice transgenic for human presenilin-1 with single or multiple mutations [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease-related mutations in the presenilin-1 gene (PS1) are leading to an elevated production of neurotoxic beta-amyloid 1-42 and may additionally enhance oxidative stress.

A Genome-wide gene-expression analysis and database in transgenic mice during development of amyloid or tau pathology [PDF]
We provide microarray data comparing genome-wide differential expression and pathology throughout life in four lines of "amyloid" transgenic mice (mutant human APP, PSEN1, or APP/PSEN1) and "TAU" transgenic mice (mutant human MAPT gene).

Mouse skeletal muscle fiber-type-specific macroautophagy and muscle wasting are regulated by a Fyn/STAT3/Vps34 signaling pathway [PDF]
Skeletal muscle atrophy induced by aging (sarcopenia), inactivity, and prolonged fasting states (starvation) is predominantly restricted to glycolytic type II muscle fibers and typical spares oxidative type I fibers.
