Genetic modifiers of atherosclerosis in mice.
Atherosclerosis is a complex, multifactorial disease with both genetic and environmental determinants. Experimental investigation of the effects of these determinants on the development and progression of atherosclerosis has been greatly facilitated by the use of targeted mouse models of the disease, particularly those resulting from the absence of functional genes for apolipoprotein E or the l...
متن کاملAn Unexpected Function of the Prader-Willi Syndrome Imprinting Center in Maternal Imprinting in Mice
Genomic imprinting is a phenomenon that some genes are expressed differentially according to the parent of origin. Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and Angelman syndrome (AS) are neurobehavioral disorders caused by deficiency of imprinted gene expression from paternal and maternal chromosome 15q11-q13, respectively. Imprinted genes at the PWS/AS domain are regulated through a bipartite imprinting ce...
متن کاملDeletion of the Mouse Glycine Transporter 2 Results in a Hyperekplexia Phenotype and Postnatal Lethality
The glycine transporter subtype 2 (GlyT2) is localized in the axon terminals of glycinergic neurons. Mice deficient in GlyT2 are normal at birth but during the second postnatal week develop a lethal neuromotor deficiency that resembles severe forms of human hyperekplexia (hereditary startle disease) and is characterized by spasticity, tremor, and an inability to right. Histological and immunolo...

15 صفحه اولGenetic Modifiers of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in FcγRIIB−/− Mice
FcgammaRIIB is a potent lupus susceptibility gene as demonstrated by the observation that mice deficient in this molecule develop spontaneous antinuclear antibodies (ANA) and fatal glomerulonephritis when on the C57BL/6 background. To determine the mechanisms underlying the epistasis displayed by this gene we have constructed hybrids between FcgammaRIIB(-/-) and the systemic lupus erythematosus...
