Transgenic experimentation has become a crucial part of hypertension and atherosclerosis research, and is growing more important in several other areas of cardiovascular disease. It has recently made a particular contribution to understanding the role of the renin-angiotensin system in controlling h

## Abstract Astrocytes are fundamental for brain homeostasis and are at the fulcrum of neurological diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we monitored changes in astroglia morphology throughout the ageβdependent progression of AD. We used an immunohistochemical approach that allows us
Linkage studies indicate close associations of certain HLA alleles with autoimmune diseases. To better understand how specific HLA alleles are related to disease pathogenesis, we have generated an HLA DR3/DQ2 transgenic mouse utilizing a 550-kb yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) construct containing
Transgenic mice were constructed using human alpha 1-antitrypsin M and Z genomic clones. Livers of the M lineage mice showed slight cellular pleomorphism and immunohistochemically demonstrable finely granular alpha 1-antitrypsin material in hepatocytes. Z lineage mice with five gene copies per haplo
## Abstract Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder whose cardinal manifestations are due primarily to a profound deficit in brain dopamine. Since the 1980s, several therapeutic strategies have been discovered to treat the symptoms of this neurological disorder, but as of yet, none halt
## Abstract The cerebral deposition of amyloid Ξ²βpeptide, a central event in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis, begins several years before the onset of clinical symptoms. Noninvasive detection of AD pathology at this initial stage would facilitate intervention and enhance treatment success. In
