Mammalian telomerase: catalytic subunit and knockout mice.
For the second time this year random cDNA sequencing, in combination with data from unicellular eukaryotes, has made a significant contribution to the analysis of human telomerase. Two groups have reported mammalian homologues of the Tetrahymena p80 telomerase-associated protein, in both cases the key breakthrough being mammalian cDNA clones with database matches to Tetrahymena p80. This has no...
متن کاملFractionating spatial memory with glutamate receptor subunit-knockout mice.
In recent years, the contribution that different glutamate receptor subtypes and subunits make to spatial learning and memory has been studied extensively using genetically modified mice in which key proteins are knocked out. This has revealed dissociations between different aspects of spatial memory that were not previously apparent from lesion studies. For example, studies with GluA1 AMPAR [A...
متن کاملAge-Related Hearing Loss in Mn-SOD Heterozygous Knockout Mice
Age-related hearing loss (AHL) reduces the quality of life for many elderly individuals. Manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), one of the antioxidant enzymes acting within the mitochondria, plays a crucial role in scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS). To determine whether reduction in Mn-SOD accelerates AHL, we evaluated auditory function in Mn-SOD heterozygous knockout (HET) mice and th...
متن کاملCardiac hypertrophy and microvascular deficit in kinin B2 receptor knockout mice.
Experimental and clinical evidence suggests kinin involvement in adaptive myocardial growth. Kinins are growth-inhibitory to cardiomyocytes. Knockout of kinin B2 receptor (B2R) signaling causes dilated and failing cardiomyopathy in 129/J mice, and a 9-bp deletion polymorphism of human B2R is associated with reduced receptor expression and exaggerated left ventricular growth response to physical...
متن کاملGastric motility in ghrelin receptor knockout mice.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects and possible mechanisms of ghrelin receptor (GHS-R) deficiency on gastric motility in GHS-R deficient (Ghsr-/-) mice. Ghsr-/- and control (Ghsr+/+) mice were genotyped by PCR. The percentage of gastric emptying (GE%) was calculated following the intraperitoneal adminis-tration of ghrelin. In vitro, the contractile response of smooth muscle st...
