Testicular germ cell tumors in mice: new ways to study a genetically complex traitJason D Heaney
Department of Genetics, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, USA
Methods Mol Biol 450:211-31. 2008..We discuss the application of modifier genes in genetic interaction tests and sensitized polygenic trait analyses toward the understanding of the complex genetics and biology of TGCT susceptibility in mice...
Loss of the transmembrane but not the soluble kit ligand isoform increases testicular germ cell tumor susceptibility in miceJason D Heaney
Department of Genetics and Case Comprehensive Cancer Center, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio 44106, USA
Cancer Res 68:5193-7. 2008....
Trans-generational epistasis between Dnd1Ter and other modifier genes controls susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumorsMan Yee J Lam
Department of Genetics, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, OH 44106, USA
Hum Mol Genet 16:2233-40. 2007....
Deletion of eIF2beta suppresses testicular cancer incidence and causes recessive lethality in agouti-yellow miceJason D Heaney
Department of Genetics, Case Comprehensive Cancer Center, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, OH 44120, USA
Hum Mol Genet 18:1395-404. 2009..These results show that germ cell development and TGCT pathogenesis are sensitive to the availability of the eIF2 translation initiation complex and to changes in the rate of translation...
Transgenerational epigenetic effects of the Apobec1 cytidine deaminase deficiency on testicular germ cell tumor susceptibility and embryonic viabilityVicki R Nelson
Department of Genetics, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, OH 44106, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 109:E2766-73. 2012..These results suggest that Apobec1 plays a central role in controlling TGCT susceptibility in both a conventional and a transgenerational manner...
Germ cell pluripotency, premature differentiation and susceptibility to testicular teratomas in miceJason D Heaney
Department of Genetics, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH 44106, USA
Development 139:1577-86. 2012..These results show that deregulation of the mitotic-meiotic switch in XY germ cells contributes to teratoma initiation...
Mice with a deletion in the gene for CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta are protected against diet-induced obesityCarrie A Millward
Department of Nutrition, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH 44106, USA
Diabetes 56:161-7. 2007..In conclusion, the transcription factor C/EBPbeta is an important regulator in controlling lipid metabolism and in the development of diet-induced obesity...
Tissue-specific expression of a BAC transgene targeted to the Hprt locus in mouse embryonic stem cellsJason D Heaney
Department of Cellular and Molecular Physiology, The Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine H166, 500 University Drive, Hershey, PA 17033 0850, USA
Genomics 83:1072-82. 2004..This technology will facilitate many studies in which correct interpretation of data depends on developmentally appropriate transgene expression in the absence of rearrangements or deletions of endogenous DNA...
Artificial chromosome-based transgenes in the study of genome functionJason D Heaney
Department of Cellular and Molecular Physiology, The Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine, The Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, 500 University Drive, Hershey, PA 17033-0850, USA
Mamm Genome 17:791-807. 2006....
