In-vitro Mutagenesis01:16

In-vitro Mutagenesis

14.8K
To learn more about the function of a gene, researchers can observe what happens when the gene is inactivated or “knocked out,” by creating genetically engineered knockout animals. Knockout mice have been particularly useful as models for human diseases such as cancer, Parkinson’s disease, and diabetes.

Hedgehog Signaling Pathway02:33

Hedgehog Signaling Pathway

7.1K
The Hedgehog gene (Hh) was first discovered due to its control of the growth of disorganized, hair-like bristles phenotype in Drosophila, much like hedgehog spines. Hh plays a crucial role in the development of organs and the maintenance of homeostasis in both invertebrates and vertebrates. However, while Drosophila has only one Hh protein, mammals have multiple functional Hedgehog proteins - Sonic (Shh), Desert (Dhh), and Indian Hedgehog (Ihh). All of these homologous proteins have adapted to...

Mouse Models of Cancer Study

4.7K
Mice have long served as models for studying human biology and pathology because of their phylogenetic and physiological similarity with humans. They are also easy to maintain and breed in the laboratory, and hence, many inbred strains are now available for research. Studies on mice have contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cancer biology.
The development of transgenic, knockout, and knock-in mice has led to an exponential increase in their use as model organisms in research,...

Caspases01:24

Caspases

8.7K
Caspase, a family of cysteine proteases, serve as effectors in apoptosis. The ced3 gene in C.elegans was first identified to be involved in apoptosis. This gene encodes the ced-3 caspase that is similar to the interleukin-1-beta converting enzyme or ICE in mammals. In addition to apoptosis, caspases also function in the inflammatory response. Inflammatory caspases are essential in activating pro-inflammatory cytokines that recruit immune cells and block the replication of pathogens inside...

The Extrinsic Apoptotic Pathway01:17

The Extrinsic Apoptotic Pathway

6.2K
The extrinsic apoptotic pathway is initiated when extracellular death-inducing signals, such as specific cytokines, activate the death receptors expressed on the cell surface. The immune cells involved in this pathway are natural killer cells (NK cells) and cytotoxic T-lymphocytes. NK cells are critical in innate immune response, while cytotoxic T-lymphocytes are associated with adaptive immune response. These cells recognize specific receptors expressed on the altered cells and activate...

The Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway01:31

The Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway

6.2K
Internal cellular stress, such as cellular injury or hypoxia, triggers intrinsic apoptosis. The B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family of proteins are the primary regulators of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. For example, during DNA damage, checkpoint proteins, such as Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM protein) and Checkpoints Factor-2 (Chk2) proteins, are activated. These proteins phosphorylate p53 which further activates pro-apoptotic proteins, such as Bax, Bak, PUMA, and Noxa, and inhibits...

Resumen

La mutación Harlequin causa neurodegeneración al reducir la expresión del factor inductor de la apoptosis (AIF), lo que lleva al estrés oxidativo y la muerte celular en ratones. La restauración de los niveles de AIF protege las neuronas, destacando su papel en la prevención de enfermedades neurodegenerativas.

  • Genética La genética.
  • Biología celular Biología celular.

Sus antecedentes:

  • Los ratones mutantes Harlequin (Hq) muestran una degeneración progresiva de las neuronas cerebelares y de la retina.
  • La mutación Hq está relacionada con una reducción significativa en la expresión del factor inductor de la apoptosis (AIF).

Objetivo del estudio:

  • Para identificar la causa genética de la neurodegeneración en ratones mutantes Hq.
  • Investigar el papel del factor inductor de la apoptosis (AIF) en la supervivencia neuronal y el estrés oxidativo.

Principales métodos:

  • Análisis genético para identificar la mutación Hq.
  • Evaluación de los niveles de expresión de AIF en ratones mutantes y de tipo salvaje.
  • Experimentos in vitro e in vivo para evaluar la susceptibilidad neuronal al estrés oxidativo y el efecto de la FIA.
  • Análisis de la reentrada del ciclo celular en las neuronas dañadas.

Principales resultados:

  • La mutación Hq es una inserción proviral en el gen Aif, reduciendo la expresión AIF en aproximadamente un 80%.
  • Las células granulares cerebelares mutantes son sensibles a la apoptosis inducida por el peróxido, pero pueden ser rescatadas por AIF.
  • La sobreexpresión de AIF reduce la muerte celular mediada por peróxido en las células de tipo silvestre, lo que indica una función de eliminación de radicales libres.
  • Las neuronas moribundas en ratones Hq muestran estrés oxidativo y vuelven a entrar en el ciclo celular antes de la apoptosis.

Conclusiones:

  • AIF juega un papel crucial en la protección de las neuronas del estrés oxidativo y la prevención de la apoptosis.
  • El ratón Hq sirve como modelo genético para la neurodegeneración mediada por el estrés oxidativo.
