additional information | generation of CSAD knockout mice, chimeric CSAD KO mice are produced by injection of cells from a gene trap ES cell line (XP0392) into C57BL/6 (B6) blastocysts which are implanted into a pseudopregnant B6 mouse. Nine chimeric mice are mated with B6 in the animal colony. Agouti mice produced by this mating are back-crossed to B6 and offsprings are genotyped using PCR, overview. Although CSAD-/- generation (G)1 and G2 survive, offspring from G2 CSAD-/- have low brain and liver taurine concentrations and most die within 24 hrs of birth. Taurine concentrations in G3 CSAD-/- born from G2 CSAD-/- treated with taurine in the drinking water are restored and survival rates of G3 CSAD-/- increase from 15% to 92%. The mRNA expression of CDO, ADO, and TauT is not different in CSAD-/- compared to wild-type, and CSAD mRNA is not expressed in CSAD-/-. Expression of Gpx 1 and 3 is increased significantly in CSAD-/- and restored to normal levels with taurine supplementation. Lactoferrin and the prolactin receptor are significantly decreased in CSAD-/-. The prolactin receptor is restored with taurine supplementation | Mus musculus |
