Impaired Muscle Regeneration in Ob/ob and Db/db Mice
In obesity and type 2 diabetes, efficient skeletal muscle repair following injury may be required, not only for restoring muscle structure and function, but also for maintaining exercise capacity and insulin sensitivity. The hypothesis of this study was that muscle regeneration would be impaired in ob/ob and db/db mice, which are common mouse models of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Muscle injury...
متن کاملDelayed angiogenesis and VEGF production in CCR2-/- mice during impaired skeletal muscle regeneration.
The regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels and angiogenic events during skeletal muscle regeneration remains largely unknown. This study examined angiogenesis, VEGF levels, and muscle regeneration after cardiotoxin (CT)-induced injury in mice lacking the CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2). Muscle regeneration was significantly decreased in CCR2-/- mice as was the early accum...

متن کاملLiver regeneration is transiently impaired in urokinase-deficient mice.
To test the hypothesis that urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) plays an important role in liver regeneration in vivo, partial hepatectomy was performed on wild-type and uPA-deficient (uPA-/-) mice. Mice were studied at 24, 44, and 96 h and at 8 days and 4 wk post-partial hepatectomy for evidence of regeneration, as measured by mitotic indexes and [3H]thymidine incorporation. In wild-typ...
متن کاملImpaired Axonal Regeneration in a7 Integrin-Deficient Mice
The interplay between growing axons and the extracellular substrate is pivotal for directing axonal outgrowth during development and regeneration. Here we show an important role for the neuronal cell adhesion molecule a7b1 integrin during peripheral nerve regeneration. Axotomy led to a strong increase of this integrin on regenerating motor and sensory neurons, but not on the normally nonregener...
