Genetically Modified Animals in Endocrinology
The bibliographic list below represents
the first of what we hope will be a useful service provided by
Endocrine Reviews. We have attempted to compile a list of
the primary references to null (knockout) mice for the genes of the
nuclear receptor family. We have limited this first trial list to the
papers that describe the initial creation of the null mouse for a
particular gene. Although we have attempted to be complete, we realize
that we probably have overlooked some appropriate entries. We invite
our readers input for other suggestions or additions to this
list.
With the realization that there are many transgenic mice and null mice
for genes that are not specifically members of the nuclear receptor
family but have associated or closely related functions, we intend to
add to and expand this list with links to other such citations. We will
be working with others in The Endocrine Society to provide a Web-based
cumulative bibliography based on this beginning and the subsequent
printed lists. This will be developed over the next months and will be
accessed through The Endocrine Society central page and its gateway to
other resources.
