We would like to express some technical concerns about the results presented in the article by Mato and coworkers in the April 2008 issue of HEPATOLOGY. 1 We have identified the gene for glycine N-methyltransferase (GNMT) as a liver cancer susceptibility gene, generated Gnmtฯช/ฯช mice, and reported on
The generation of mice designed to overexpress activated forms of oncogenes or carrying targeted mutations in tumour suppressor genes, has allowed scientists to causally link the function of these genes with specific tumour processes, such as proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis or metastasis. In
Novel gene technologies have allowed us to manipulate the genetic balance of candidate molecules in mice in a controllable manner. Homologous or site-speciยฎc recombination in embryonic stem cells allows us to study the consequences of deยฎciencies, mutations, and conditional or tissue-speciยฎc express
