Sox9-Haploinsufficiency Causes Glucose Intolerance in Mice
The HMG box transcription factor Sox9 plays a critical role in progenitor cell expansion during pancreas organogenesis and is required for proper endocrine cell development in the embryo. Based on in vitro studies it has been suggested that Sox9 controls expression of a network of important developmental regulators, including Tcf2/MODY5, Hnf6, and Foxa2, in pancreatic progenitor cells. Here, we...
متن کاملPitx1 haploinsufficiency causes clubfoot in humans and a clubfoot-like phenotype in mice.
Clubfoot affects 1 in 1000 live births, although little is known about its genetic or developmental basis. We recently identified a missense mutation in the PITX1 bicoid homeodomain transcription factor in a family with a spectrum of lower extremity abnormalities, including clubfoot. Because the E130K mutation reduced PITX1 activity, we hypothesized that PITX1 haploinsufficiency could also caus...
متن کاملHaploinsufficiency of kelch-like protein homolog 10 causes infertility in male mice.
We identified a testis-specific gene encoding a protein containing a BTB/POZ domain and six kelch repeats, which we named kelch homolog 10 (KLHL10). KLHL10 displays high evolutionary conservation in mammals, as evidenced by 98.7% amino acid identity between mouse and human KLHL10. KLHL10 is exclusively expressed in the cytoplasm of elongating and elongated spermatids (steps 9-16). We generated ...
متن کاملPKD1 haploinsufficiency causes a syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis in mice.
Mutations in PKD1 are associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Studies in mouse models suggest that the vasopressin (AVP) V2 receptor (V2R) pathway is involved in renal cyst progression, but potential changes before cystogenesis are unknown. This study used a noncystic mouse model to investigate the effect of Pkd1 haploinsufficiency on water handling and AVP signaling in th...
متن کاملNotch1 haploinsufficiency causes ascending aortic aneurysms in mice.
An ascending aortic aneurysm (AscAA) is a life-threatening disease whose molecular basis is poorly understood. Mutations in NOTCH1 have been linked to bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), which is associated with AscAA. Here, we describe a potentially novel role for Notch1 in AscAA. We found that Notch1 haploinsufficiency exacerbated the aneurysmal aortic root dilation seen in the Marfan syndrome mouse...
