Confounding Effects of Tamoxifen: Cautionary and Practical Considerations for the Use of Tamoxifen-Inducible Mouse Models in Atherosclerosis Research
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, we establish that tamoxifen administration results in decreased serum cholesterol, decreased plaque formation, and increased hepatic lipid accumulation. These alterations represent significant confounding variables in atherosclerosis research, and we urge future investigators to take these findings into consideration when planning and executing their own atherosclerosis experiments.PMID:37706321 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.319922

Manipulation of components of the renin angiotensin system in renal proximal tubules fails to alter atherosclerosis in hypercholesterolemic mice
CONCLUSION: Whole-body AT1R inhibition reduced atherosclerosis equivalently in both male and female mice; however, PTC-specific manipulation of the RAS components had no effects on hypercholesterolemia-induced atherosclerosis.PMID:37655218 | PMC:PMC10466789 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2023.1250234

Sex differences in the effects of brown adipocyte CD47 deficiency on age-related weight change and glucose homeostasis
Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2023 Jul 22;676:78-83. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.07.042. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOur previous studies demonstrated that mice with global CD47 deficiency are lean and resistant to diet or aging-associated obesity and metabolic complications. This protective effect is partially through modulating brown fat function. To definitively determine the role of brown fat CD47 in age-related metabolic homeostasis, inducible brown adipocyte-specific cd47 deficient mice were generated by crossbreeding cd47 floxed mice with UCP1-CreERT2 mice and characterized in this study. Efficient knockdown of CD47 in...

Distinct Roles of DRP1 in Conventional and Alternative Mitophagy in Obesity Cardiomyopathy
CONCLUSIONS: DRP1 is an essential factor in mitochondrial quality control during obesity cardiomyopathy that controls multiple forms of mitophagy. Although DRP1 regulates conventional mitophagy through a mitochondria-associated membrane-independent mechanism during the acute phase, it acts as a component of the mitophagy machinery at the mitochondria-associated membranes in alternative mitophagy during the chronic phase of HFD consumption.PMID:37232152 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.123.322512
