Novel quantitative phenotypes of exercise training in mouse models.
Regular physical exercise has beneficial effects in many human disease states, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and depression. Exercise training of genetically modified mouse models may provide insight into the molecular mechanisms that underlie the beneficial effects of exercise. Presently, there is relatively little understanding of the normal physiology of mouse exercise. In this ...
متن کاملCharacterization of behavioral and neuromuscular junction phenotypes in a novel allelic series of SMA mouse models.
A number of mouse models for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) have been genetically engineered to recapitulate the severity of human SMA by using a targeted null mutation at the mouse Smn1 locus coupled with the transgenic addition of varying copy numbers of human SMN2 genes. Although this approach has been useful in modeling severe SMA and very mild SMA, a mouse model of the intermediate form of ...
متن کاملQuantitative trait loci for maximal exercise capacity phenotypes and their responses to training in the HERITAGE Family Study.
The purpose of this study was to identify regions of the human genome linked to maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and maximal power output (MPO), and their response to a standardized 20-wk endurance-training program in sedentary black and white subjects. A total of 509 polymorphic markers covering the 22 autosomes were used in the genome-wide linkage scan. Baseline phenotypes were adjusted for age...
متن کاملGraded Maximal Exercise Testing to Assess Mouse Cardio-Metabolic Phenotypes
Functional assessments of cardiovascular fitness (CVF) are needed to establish animal models of dysfunction, test the effects of novel therapeutics, and establish the cardio-metabolic phenotype of mice. In humans, the graded maximal exercise test (GXT) is a standardized diagnostic for assessing CVF and mortality risk. These tests, which consist of concurrent staged increases in running speed an...
متن کاملBrain phenotypes in two FGFR2 mouse models for Apert syndrome.
Apert syndrome (AS) is one of at least nine disorders considered members of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) -1, -2, and -3-related craniosynostosis syndromes. Nearly 100% of individuals diagnosed with AS carry one of two neighboring mutations on Fgfr2. The cranial phenotype associated with these two mutations includes coronal suture synostosis, either unilateral (unicoronal synosto...
