Inhibition of Uncoupling Protein 2 Attenuates Cardiac Hypertrophy Induced by Transverse Aortic Constriction in Mice

Background: Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) is critical in regulating energy metabolism.Due to the significant change in energy metabolism of myocardium upon pressure overload, we hypothesize that UCP2 could contribute to the etiology of cardiac hypertrophy.Methods: Adult male C57BL/6J mice were subjected to pressure overload by using transverse aortic

Emotion and cognition in high and low stress sensitive mouse strains: a combined neuroendocrine and behavioral study in BALB/c and C57BL/6J mice

Emotionally arousing experiences and stress influence cognitive processes and vice versa.Understanding the relations and interactions between these three systems forms the core of this study.We tested two inbred mouse strains (BALB/c, C57BL/6J; male; 3-month-old) for glucocorticoid stress system markers (expression of MR and GR mRNA and protein in
