Identification and Characterization of the Wild Mouse Gut Microbiome as the Optimal Standard for Laboratory Mice
Transgenic Mice with Conditionally Activated Islet Beta Cell M3 Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor for Improving Glucose Tolerance in High-fat Diet Obese Insulin-resistant Mice
Monoclonal Antibody Against Human Alpha-5 Integrin that Does Not Disrupt Adhesive Function
This technology includes a rat monoclonal antibody termed mAb11 was generated against the human alpha-5 integrin subunit and can provide immunological characterizations without disrupting integrin adhesive function. It permits characterization of its localization even if the receptor is bound to its fibronectin ligand. The antibody is commercially available from Millipore Sigma.
In-vivo System to Interrogate the Functions of Mucous Membranes and Identify Mucin/Glycan Mimetics and JAK/STAT Inhibitors for the Treatment of Diseases of the Oral Cavity and Digestive Tract
Application of AAV44.9 Vector in Gene Therapy for the Inner Ear
KCNN4 Knockout Mice for Mechanistic Research
This technology includes a transgenic allele for a mouse knockout model for the KCNN4 gene. Secretion of fluids from these salivary glands requires the coordination of multiple water and ion channel proteins. Notably, the majority of these channels have been shown to be up-regulated by increased calcium concentrations. The relevant calcium-activated potassium channels are split into the small, intermediate, and large conductance channels (called the SK, IK, and BK channels). The KCNN4 gene plays a part in the IK and BK channels.
