Studying the Effect of Host Genetic Background of Juvenile Polyposis Development using Collaborative Cross and Smad4 Knock-out Mouse Models
2024-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome (JPS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by multiple juvenile polyps in the gastrointestinal tract, often associated with mutations in genes such as Smad4 and BMPR1A. This study explores the impact of Smad4 knockout on the development of intestinal polyps using Collaborative Cross (CC) mice, a genetically diverse model. Our results reveal a significant increase in intes...
