General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction body weights, femur and tibia lengths and diameters, and ash weights of tibia of wild-type, SSAT overexpressing, and SSAT deficient female mice, overview. Enzyme overexpressing SSAT mice have an altered skeletal appearance with increased collagen cleavage and reduced bone strength compared to the wild-type. Engineered mice also show altered differentiation of mesenchymal stromal cells to osteoblasts. Polyamine metabolism of SSAT osteoblasts is disturbed. Osteoblasts of SSAT overexpressing mice show significantly increased SSAT enzyme activity Mus musculus
physiological function spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase is a catabolic regulator of polyamines, ubiquitous molecules essential for cell proliferation and differentiation. Role of polyamine metabolism in bone remodeling Mus musculus
