متن کاملAdiponectin resistance exacerbates insulin resistance in insulin receptor transgenic/knockout mice.
OBJECTIVE Adiponectin increases insulin sensitivity and contributes to insulin's indirect effects on hepatic glucose production. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS To examine adiponectin's contribution to insulin action, we analyzed adiponectin levels and activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in insulin receptor transgenic/knockout mice (L1), a genetic model of resistance to insulin's in...
متن کاملTnk1/Kos1 knockout mice develop spontaneous tumors.
Tnk1/Kos1 is a non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase implicated in negatively regulating cell growth in a mechanism requiring its intrinsic catalytic activity. Tnk1/Kos1 null mice were created by homologous recombination by deleting the catalytic domain. Both Tnk1(+/-) and Tnk1(-/-) mice develop spontaneous tumors, including lymphomas and carcinomas, at high rates [27% (14 of 52) and 43% (12 of ...
متن کاملDiabetic eNOS-knockout mice develop accelerated retinopathy.
PURPOSE Dysfunction of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular complications. This study was undertaken to determine the role of eNOS in the development of diabetic retinopathy (DR), by investigating the functional consequences of its deficiency in the diabetic state. METHODS Diabetes was induced in eNOS-knockout (eNOS(-/-)) and C5...
متن کاملCTP: Phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase: paving the way from gene to membrane.
PC is the most abundant phospholipid in eukaryotic membranes whereas few prokaryotes contain PC. PC is synthesized in eukaryotes by two routes: the CDP-choline pathway (1) and PE methylation (2). PE methylation is the most important contributor to PC formation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (3). In contrast, mammalian cells and tissues predominantly use the CDP-choline pathway (2, 4). PC is the ma...
