Knockout mice for pharmacological screening: testing the specificity of Na+-Ca2+ exchange inhibitors.
The role of the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger as a major determinant of cell Ca2+ is well defined in cardiac tissue, and there has been much effort to develop specific inhibitors of the exchanger. We use a novel system to test the specificity of two putative specific inhibitors, KB-R7943 and SEA0400. The drugs are applied to electrically stimulated heart tubes from control mouse embryos or embryos with th...
متن کاملPharmacological preconditioning with resveratrol: an insight with iNOS knockout mice.
Resveratrol, a natural antioxidant and polyphenol found in grapes and wine, has been found to pharmacologically precondition the heart through the upregulation of nitric oxide (NO). To gain further insight of the role of NO in resveratrol preconditioning, mouse hearts devoid of any copies of inhibitory NO synthase (iNOS) (iNOS knockout) and corresponding wild-type hearts were perfused with 10 m...
متن کاملScreening Methods to Identify TALEN-Mediated Knockout Mice
Genome editing with site-specific nucleases, such as zinc-finger nucleases or transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and RNA-guided nucleases, such as the CRISPR/Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated) system, is becoming the new standard for targeted genome modification in various organisms. Application of these techniques to the man...
متن کاملKnockout Corner : Knockout mice for monoamine oxidase A
A line of transgenic mice was isolated in which transgene integration had caused a deletion in the gene encoding monoamine oxidase A, an enzyme that degrades serotonin and norepinephrine. This has provided an animal model of MAOA deficiency in humans, a condition characterized by borderline mental retardation and impulsive aggression. Received 13 June 1999 ; Reviewed 14 June 1999 ; Accepted 16 ...
