We found that Retnla-Tg mice had significantly lower serum cholesterol levels than non-Tg mice on a high-fat diet (HFD). To explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the cholesterol-lowering effects of Retnla under hyperlipidemic conditions, we subjected age- and sex-matched Retnla-Tg and non-Tg mice to a HFD for 4 weeks.
The adipokine Retnla modulates cholesterol homeostasis in hyperlipidemic mice.

View SamplesInositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase A (IP3K-A) is a molecule enriched in the brain and neurons that regulates intracellular calcium levels via signaling through the inositol trisphosphate receptor. In the present study, we found that IP3K-A expression is highly enriched in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA), which plays a pivotal role in the processing and expression of emotional phenotypes in mammals.

View SamplesThe purpose of this study was to characterize the transcriptional effects induced by subcutaneous IFN-beta-1b treatment (Betaferon, 250 g every other day) in patients with relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis (MS).
Long-term genome-wide blood RNA expression profiles yield novel molecular response candidates for IFN-beta-1b treatment in relapsing remitting MS.
