EXPERIMENTAL MODELS

Contributor Information
- Name Lijun Xia
- Institute Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation
Tool Details
- Tool name: Core 3- intestinal derived O-glycans and core 1- intestinal derived O-glycans double KO mouse
- Tool type: Experimental models
- Tool sub-type: Mouse
- Disease: Spontaneous Colitis-Associated Cancer; Colorectal Cancer; Mucin; MUC2; Ulcerative Colitis; Microbiome
- Model: Knock-Out
- Conditional: No
- Genetic background and cross history: Mice were generated by crossing core-3 intestinal derived O-glycans with core-1 intestinal derived O-glycans
- Phenotype: Spontaneous colitis-associated colon cancer
- Zygosity: unknown
- Strain: C57BL/6
- Description: Defective intestinal mucin-type O-glycosylation causes colonic mucus barrier breach and subsequent microbiota-mediated activation of caspase1-dependent inflammasomes in colonic epithelial cells which cause spontaneous colitis-associated cancer in mice
- Research area: Cancer; Cell signaling and signal transduction; Genetics; Immunology
- Production details: Mice were generated by crossing core-3 intestinal derived O-glycans with core-1 intestinal derived O-glycans
- For Research Use Only
