We have established a gene regulatory system in mice by the inducible anti-sense RNA. We have generated transgenic mice carrying the anti-sense DNA composed of the class II MHC gene under the control of the human metallothionein IIa gene promoter. The detectable amount of anti-sense RNA was constitu

To analyze the regulation of human serum amyloid P component (SAP) gene expression, we have produced seven transgenic mice. The 3.3 kb human SAP genes containing about 0.8 kb of 5' and 1.5 kb of 3' flanking region were injected into fertilized eggs of C57BL/6 mice. In five of the seven transgenic mi
We analyzed expression of multidrug resistance (mdr) genes in rat liver during regeneration after partial hepatectomy or carbon tetrachloride-induced necrosis. In situ hybridization revealed that in the normal liver the cellular distribution of mdr transcripts and protein is restricted to hepatocyte
## Abstract We previously showed that hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)โproducing transgenic mice were more sensitive to hepatocarcinogens than their normal littermates were. We have now investigated the regulation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) gene expression in carcinogenโinduced liver tumors of H

## Abstract A set of growth arrestโspecific (gas) genes negatively regulated by serum has been identified. To define the role of gas genes in a model of cell proliferation in vivo we analyzed the expression of one of these genes (gasโ6) during liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PH). We f
