The research conducted in this study focuses on the four core genotypes (FCG) mouse line and their binge drinking habits of ethanol. The FCG mouse line is a transgenic mouse line that translocates the sex-determining region y, “sry,” to an autosome (presence of the sry gene causes testes to develop). This results in four different […]
A14: Understanding Retinal Regeneration through the Analysis of Integrated Pathways of the Embryonic Chick
There is a substantial segment of the human population that suffers from visual impairments due to common retinal ailments such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and visual decline with age. However, humans lack the ability to regenerate damaged retinal tissue; therefore, research exploring gene regulation in regenerative animals can provide important insight to combat retinal […]
