Two Distal Downstream Enhancers Direct Expression of the Human Apolipoprotein E Gene to Astrocytes in the Brain
1 Feb 2001
Abstract excerpt
Two distal downstream enhancers controlling astrocyte expression of the human apolipoprotein E (apoE) gene in the brain were identified by analysis of transgenic mice generated with various constructs of the apoE/C-I/C-IV/C-II gene cluster. In wild-type mice, the highest overall levels of apoE mRNA were found in astrocytes in the glomerular layer of olfactory bulbs and in Bergmann glia in the cerebellum. This...
