Abstract excerpt
We previously reported the gene deletion encoding cytochrome P-450 cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme (P-450SCC, resulting in complete elimination of the adrenal gene expression and causing congenital adrenal hyperplasia in the rabbit. Using the rabbit congenital adrenal hyperplasia model, we investigated the wild type (wt) P-450SCC gene dose effect on gene expression in three P-450SCC genotype animals...
