Low-density Lipoprotein Receptor-related Protein 5 (LRP5)-deficient Rats Have Reduced Bone Mass and Abnormal Development of the Retinal Vasculature

2020-01-07

Abstract excerpt

Humans carrying homozygous loss-of-function mutations in the Wnt co-receptor LRP5 (low-density lipoprotein receptor–related protein 5) develop osteoporosis and a defective retinal vasculature known as familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) due to disruption of the Wnt signaling pathway. The purpose of this study was to use CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing to create strains of Lrp5-deficient rats and to deter...
