A transgenic mouse model for gene-nutrient interactions.
Diets or nutritional supplements contain many nutrients and other components that may interact, which adds a layer of complexity to their evaluation. A well-controlled experimental model that can eliminate or minimize the confounding factors of diet is critical for addressing nutrient-gene interactions. The newly generated fat-1 transgenic mouse was genetically engineered to carry a gene, namel...
متن کاملP-111: An Attempt to Facilitate the Production of Transgenic Mouse As A Model for Gene Therapy of Gaucher Disease
Background: Gaucher disease is an autosomal recessive inherited lysosomal storage disorder that affects many of the body's organs and tissues by defective function of the catabolic enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase. Gene therapy is one of the efficient ways for treatment of this disease. Due to the lack of appropriate animal models, in the field of gene therapy little progress has been done.Mate...
متن کاملA Triple-Transgenic Immunotolerant Mouse Model
Avoiding unwanted immunogenicity is of key importance in the development of therapeutic drug proteins. Animal models are of less predictive value because most of the drug proteins are recognized as foreign proteins. However, different methods have been developed to obtain immunotolerant animal models. So far, the immunotolerant animal models have been developed to assess one protein at a time a...
متن کاملA transgenic mouse model for monitoring oxidative stress
Oxidative stress conditions enhance the production of reactive oxygen species resulting from a variety of stimuli, and are associated with various human diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, inflammation, and various cancers. Though such associations have been closely studied using animal models, there has been no in vivo system for monitoring oxidative stress. We have developed an o...
متن کاملA transgenic mouse model for studying HBV infection in neonate
The human hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is always a worldwide problem, especially the high risk infection of the neonate by chronically HBV infected mother. McGrane et al. [1] have demonstrated that the gene which is driven by the promoter of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is mainly expressed in the mouse liver and immediately appears at parturition. We have constructed a transge...
