Mesotheliomas in Genetically Engineered Mice Unravel Mechanism of Mesothelial Carcinogenesis

Using Genetically Engineered Mice to Probe the Role of Bioactive Lipids in Prostate Carcinogenesis

Congenital hydrocephalus in genetically engineered mice.

There is evidence that genetic factors play a role in the complex multifactorial pathogenesis of hydrocephalus. Identification of the genes involved in the development of this neurologic disorder in animal models may elucidate factors responsible for the excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in hydrocephalic humans. The authors report here a brief summary of findings from 12 lines of ge...

Electrophysiological phenotyping in genetically engineered mice.

Advances in transgene and gene targeting technology have enabled sophisticated manipulation of the mouse genome, providing important insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac conduction, arrhythmogenesis, and sudden cardiac death. The mouse is currently the principal mammalian model for studying biological processes, particularly related to cardiac pathophysiology. Murine models...

Investigation of Molecular Mechanism of Chronic Pain in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex Using Genetically Engineered Mice

Recent advances into the understanding of molecular mechanism of chronic pain have been largely developed through the use of genetic manipulations. This is in part due to the scarcity of selective pharmacological tools, which can be readily solved by creating knockout or transgenic mice. By identifying new genes that are of import, our efforts can then be aimed at studying relevant signaling pa...
