Leptin enhances hepatic fibrosis and inflammation in a mouse model of cholestasis
Am J Pathol. 2021 Dec 8:S0002-9440(21)00523-X. doi: 10.1016/j.ajpath.2021.11.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLeptin is an adipokine with roles in food intake and energy metabolism through its actions on neurons in the hypothalamus. The role of leptin in obesity and cardiovascular disorders is well documented; however, its influence on liver conditions such as cholestasis is poorly understood. The effects of exogenous leptin and leptin-neutralizing antibody (Leptin-Ab) on biliary hyperplasia, hepatic fibrosis and inflammation in the multidrug resistance protein 2 knockout (Mdr2KO) mouse model of cholestasis were assessed...

Bioinformatics analyses show dysregulation of calcium-related genes in Angelman syndrome mouse model.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Angelman syndrome (AS) is a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder caused by the loss of function of the UBE3A protein in the brain. In a previous study, we showed that activity-dependent calcium dynamics in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons of AS mice is compromised, and its normalization rescues the hippocampal-dependent deficits. Therefore, we expected that the expression profiles of calcium-related genes would be altered in AS mice hippocampi. METHODS: We analyzed mRNA sequencing data from AS model mice and WT controls in light of the newly published CaGeDB database of calcium-related ge...
