摘要:
The present invention is based on the generation and phenotypic characterization of transgenic knockout homozygous rchd534 mutant mice which display characteristic cardiovascular disease symptoms. Such transgenic knockout homozygous rchd534 mutant mice are useful models for the analysis and characterization of rchd534 protein involvement in development and homeostasis of the cardiovascular system and tissue-specific regulation of the TGF-&bgr; signaling pathways. Such transgenic mice may be used for screening compounds that may potentially useful for treating or preventing cardiovascular disease.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease, including, but not limited to, atherosclerosis, reperfusion injury, hypertension, restenosis, arterial inflammation, thrombosis and endothelial cell disorders. Specifically, the present invention identifies the differential expression of 1722, 10280, 59917, 85553, 10653, 9235, 21668, 17794, 2210, 6169, 10102, 21061, 17662, 1468, 12282, 6350, 9035, 1820, 23652, 7301, 8925, 8701, 3533, 9462, 9123, 12788, 17729, 65552, 1261, 21476, 33770, 9380, 2569654, 33556, 53656, 44143, 32612, 10671, 261, 44570, 41922, 2552, 2417, 19319, 43969, 8921, 8993, 955, 32345, 966, 1920, 17318, 1510, 14180, 26005, 554, 16408, 42028, 112091, 13886, 13942, 1673, 54946 and 2419 genes in cardiovascular disease states, relative to their expression in normal, or non-cardiovascular disease states, and/or in response to manipulations relevant to cardiovascular disease.
