Gene expression in atherosclerotic lesion of ApoE deficient mice.
BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis, the major cause of mortality and invalidity in industrialized countries, is a multifactorial disease associated with high plasma cholesterol levels and inflammation in the vessel wall. Many different genes have previously been demonstrated in atherosclerosis, although limited numbers of genes are dealt with in each study. In general, data on dynamic gene expression d...
متن کاملMaternal Deprivation Exacerbates the Response to a High Fat Diet in a Sexually Dimorphic Manner
Maternal deprivation (MD) during neonatal life has diverse long-term effects, including affectation of metabolism. Indeed, MD for 24 hours during the neonatal period reduces body weight throughout life when the animals are maintained on a normal diet. However, little information is available regarding how this early stress affects the response to increased metabolic challenges during postnatal ...
متن کاملCaffeine stimulates cytochrome oxidase expression and activity in the striatum in a sexually dimorphic manner.
Epidemiological studies indicate that caffeine consumption reduces the risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) in men, and antagonists of the adenosine 2A receptor ameliorate the motor symptoms of PD. These findings motivated us to identify proteins whose expression is regulated by caffeine in a sexually dimorphic manner. Using mass spectroscopy, we found that Cox7c, a nuclear-encoded subunit of the m...
متن کاملCatechol-O-methyltransferase-deficient mice exhibit sexually dimorphic changes in catecholamine levels and behavior.
Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is one of the major mammalian enzymes involved in the metabolic degradation of catecholamines and is considered a candidate for several psychiatric disorders and symptoms, including the psychopathology associated with the 22q11 microdeletion syndrome. By means of homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells, a strain of mice in which the gene encoding the...
متن کاملTumefactive Fibroinflammatory Lesion: A Diagnostic Dilemma
Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesions (TFLs) are rare idiopathic benign fibrosclerosing lesions that clinically simulate a malignancy. TFLs are seen more frequently in males between 10 and 74 years of age. The usual site of involvement is the head and neck region, but rarely the extremities may be involved. Coexisting fibrosclerotic processes have been reported including retroperitoneal fibrosi...
