The cell cycle genes homology region (CHR) has been identified as a DNA element with an important role in transcriptional regulation of late cell cycle genes.

However, it has not been elucidated which sequence variations of the canonical CHR are functional and how frequent CHR-based regulation is utilized in mammalian genomes.

Background Molecular studies of appendage regeneration have been hindered by the lack of a stable and efficient means of transferring exogenous genes. We therefore sought an efficient integrating virus system that could be used to study limb and tail regeneration in salamanders. Results We show that replication-deficient foamy virus (FV) vectors efficiently transduce cells in two different regeneration models in cell culture and in vivo. Injection of EGFP-expressing FV but not lentivirus vector particles into regenerating limbs and tail resulted in widespread expression that persisted through

Abstract:
Background With the current technological advances in high-throughput biology, the necessity to develop tools that help to analyse the massive amount of data being generated is evident. A powerful method of inspecting large-scale data sets is gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and investigation of protein structural features can guide determining the function of individual genes. However, a convenient tool that combines these two features to aid in high-throughput data analysis has not been developed yet. In order to fill this niche, we developed the user-friendly, web-based application, Phen

Tierstudien, in denen durch die Inhibition der Fettsäuresynthase (FASN) ein rapider Abfall des Körpergewichts in Mäusen erzeilt wurden, bestätigen zunehmend genetische Prädispositionen als ursächlich für die Ausbildung des MTS.

Objective: To analyze cartilage gene expression of patients with osteoarthritis (OA) in correlation with radiographic and histological findings. Materials and Methods: Twenty-one patients with OA of the knee admitted for total knee replacement were analyzed clinically and radiographically by the Kellgren and Lawrence system. During surgery, cartilage samples from the medial and lateral condyles and tibial plateaus were harvested separately. Specimens were analyzed histologically (Mankin score) and total RNA was extracted directly from cartilage tissue. Steady state levels of stromelysin (MMP-3

Background: The naked mole-rat (NMR) is a long-lived and cancer resistant species. Identification of potential anti-cancer and age related mechanisms is of great interest and makes this species eminent to investigate anti-cancer strategies and understand aging mechanisms. Since it is known that the NMR expresses higher liver mRNA-levels of alpha 2-macroglobulin than mice, nothing is known about its structure, functionality or expression level in the NMR compared to the human A2M.

Krankheitsbilder, die durch eine chronische Typ-1-IFN-Aktivierung bedingt sind, werden daher unter dem Begriff Typ-1-Interferonopathien zusammengefasst.

Background: RGS9-deficient mice show drug-induced dyskinesia but normal locomotor activity under unchallenged conditions. Results: Genes related to Ca2+ signaling and their functions were regulated in RGS9-deficient mice. Conclusion: Changes in Ca2+ signaling that compensate for RGS9 loss-of-function can explain the normal locomotor activity in RGS9-deficient mice under unchallenged conditions. Significance: Identified signaling components may represent novel targets in antidyskinetic therapy.

Recent research, that has been focused on recognition memory, has revealed that two processes contribute to recognition of previously encountered items: recollection and familiarity (Aggleton & Brown, 1999; Eichenbaum, 2006; Eichenbaum, Yonelinas, & Ranganath, 2007; Rugg & Yonelinas, 2003; Skinner & Fernandes, 2007; Squire, Stark, & Clark, 2004; Wixted, 2007a; Yonelinas, 2001a; Yonelinas, 2002). The findings of neural correlates of recollection and familiarity lead to the assumption that there are different brain regions activated in either process, but there are, to the best of my knowledge,
