Abnormal retinal development in the Btrc null mouse.
Previous microarray analysis revealed beta-transducin repeat containing (Btrc) down-regulation in the retina of mouse embryos specifically lacking cholinergic amacrine cells (CACs) as a result of the absence of skeletal musculature and fetal ocular movements. To investigate the role of Btrc in the determination of retinal cell fate, the present study examined retinal morphology in Btrc-/- mouse...
متن کاملAbnormal retinal development associated with FRMD7 mutations
Idiopathic infantile nystagmus (IIN) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder, often associated with FRMD7 mutations. As the appearance of the retina is reported to be normal based on conventional fundus photography, IIN is postulated to arise from abnormal cortical development. To determine whether the afferent visual system is involved in FRMD7 mutations, we performed in situ hybridization stu...
متن کاملAbnormal vascularization in mouse retina with dysregulated retinal cholesterol homeostasis.
Several lines of evidence suggest a link between age-related macular degeneration and retinal cholesterol maintenance. Cytochrome P450 27A1 (CYP27A1) is a ubiquitously expressed mitochondrial sterol 27-hydroxylase that plays an important role in the metabolism of cholesterol and cholesterol-related compounds. We conducted a comprehensive ophthalmic evaluation of mice lacking CYP27A1. We found t...
متن کاملGenomic Analysis of Mouse Retinal Development
The vertebrate retina is comprised of seven major cell types that are generated in overlapping but well-defined intervals. To identify genes that might regulate retinal development, gene expression in the developing retina was profiled at multiple time points using serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE). The expression patterns of 1,051 genes that showed developmentally dynamic expression by...
متن کاملAbnormal mammary gland development in MMTV-CBLC transgenic mouse.
The CBL family of E3 ubiquitin ligases regulates cell signaling in a number of tissues by promoting degradation of tyrosine kinase receptors such as epidermal growth factor receptor. CBLC, the third member of the CBL family, is expressed in epithelial tissues, including the mammary gland. A transgenic mouse strain expressing a tetracyclin-inducible CBLC in the mammary gland was derived. It was ...
