PLoS One . 2014 Apr; 9(4):e95499. PMID: 24743632
In humans, variants of the fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene have recently been associated with obesity. However, the physiological function of FTO is not well defined. Previous investigations...

Pleiser S, Al Banchaabouchi M, Samol-Wolf A, Farley D, Welz T, Wellbourne-Wood J, et al.
Eur J Cell Biol . 2013 Dec; 93(5-6):225-37. PMID: 24345451
Spir proteins nucleate actin filaments at vesicle membranes and facilitate intracellular transport processes. The mammalian genome encodes two Spir proteins, namely Spir-1 and Spir-2. While the mouse spir-2 gene has...

Aging (Albany NY) . 2012 Jun; 4(6):402-16. PMID: 22691943
Locally acting insulin growth factor isoform (mIGF-1) and the NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase SIRT1 are implicated in life and health span. Heart failure is associated with aging and is a major...

PLoS One . 2011 Nov; 6(10):e26789. PMID: 22046357
Actin plays important roles in a number of synaptic processes, including synaptic vesicle organization and exocytosis, mobility of postsynaptic receptors, and synaptic plasticity. However, little is known about the mechanisms...

Mol Pain . 2011 Sep; 7:66. PMID: 21906401
Progress in the somatosensory field has been restricted by the limited number of genetic tools available to study gene function in peripheral sensory neurons. Here we generated a Cre-driver mouse...

Rust M, Gurniak C, Renner M, Vara H, Morando L, Gorlich A, et al.
EMBO J . 2010 Apr; 29(11):1889-902. PMID: 20407421
Neuronal plasticity is an important process for learning, memory and complex behaviour. Rapid remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton in the postsynaptic compartment is thought to have an important function for...
