Cadmium is a ubiquitous environmental contaminant and a potent teratogen in mice. For many experiments, hybrid mice obtained by crossing two inbred strains are preferable to either of the contributory pure lines because of theirs so called "hybrid vigor". The objective of this study was to compare the teratogenicity impact of cadmium in the NMRI and the hybrid mouse strain. A single dose of cad...
4-1BB (CD137, TNFRSF9), a member of the activation-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor family, is a powerful T-cell costimulatory molecule. It generally enhances CD8(+) T responses and even breaks the tolerance of CD8(+) T cells in an antigen-specific manner. In the present study we found that it was expressed in the placentas of pregnant mice and that its expression coincided with that of t...
Transgenic mice containing the human angiotensinogen ( HAGT) gene were utilized to determine the developmental regulation of HAGT expression. RNase protection assay on total RNA obtained from whole transgenic fetuses revealed that HAGT expression was first detected at embryonic day 8.5( E8.5) and was abundant from E9.5 onward. The earliest expression of the HAGT transgene appeared to precede th...
Preeclampsia, a prevalent hypertensive disorder of pregnancy, is believed to be secondary to uteroplacental ischemia. Accumulating evidence indicates that hypoxia-independent mediators, including inflammatory cytokines and growth factors, are associated with preeclampsia, but it is unclear whether these signals directly contribute to placental damage and disease development in vivo. We report t...
Humans and chimpanzees share >99% identity in most proteins. One rare difference is a human-specific inactivating deletion in the CMAH gene, which determines biosynthesis of the sialic acid N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc). Since Neu5Gc is prominent on most chimpanzee cell surfaces, this mutation could have affected multiple systems. However, Neu5Gc is found in human cancers and fetuses and i...
Excess oxygen radical formation is suggested to be involved in the etiology of diabetic embryopathy. We aimed to investigate the effects of altered maternal antioxidative status in conjunction with a varied severity of the maternal diabetic state on embryonic development by using mice with different gene expression of CuZn superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD). The mice were wild-type (WT), transgenic...
Bacterial infection with group B Streptococcus (GBS) represents a prominent threat to neonates and fetuses in the Western world, causing severe organ damage and even death. To improve current therapeutic strategies and to investigate new approaches, an appropriate in vivo model to study the immune response of a human immune system is needed. Therefore, we introduced humanized mice as a new mode...
We have studied the teratogenicity of benzo(a)pyrene (BP), benzo(a)pyrene-4,5-oxide, and a racemic mixture of 7 beta,8 alpha-dihydroxy-9 alpha,10 alpha-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo(a)pyrene, a proximal metabolite and ultimate carcinogenic metabolite of BP, respectively, and of 6-methylbenzo(a)pyrene after direct injection into embryonal Swiss mice. The compounds were dissolved in acetone and ...
