research Overexpression of Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase Under the Control of Mouse Metallothionein I Promoter in Transgenic Mice: Evidence for a Striking Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Transgene Expression by a Polyamine Analogue
The study created transgenic mice overexpressing the SSAT gene, leading to significant changes in polyamine levels and permanent hair loss, with the liver showing a notable reduction in spermine. Despite high SSAT mRNA levels, enzyme activity increased only moderately unless induced by ZnSO4 or DENSPM, which drastically boosted enzyme activity and depleted liver polyamines, resulting in high mortality and liver damage. This indicated that SSAT overexpression made the mice highly sensitive to polyamine analogues and suggested a post-transcriptional regulation mechanism for SSAT expression involving translational or RNA processing control.
research Disturbed Keratinocyte Differentiation in Transgenic Mice and Organotypic Keratinocyte Cultures Due to Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase Overexpression
In this study, overexpression of spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SSAT) in transgenic mice led to increased putrescine levels, causing permanent hair loss and skin abnormalities such as dermal cysts and epidermal utriculi due to disturbed keratinocyte differentiation. This was characterized by altered expression of cytokeratins and filaggrin. The study found that reducing putrescine levels with DFMO treatment could alleviate these skin changes and promote hair regrowth, highlighting the importance of proper polyamine metabolism regulation for normal keratinocyte differentiation and hair follicle function. These findings had potential implications for understanding skin disorders and hair growth.

IGF-1 increases whisker growth in transgenic mice.
research The Human Papillomavirus Type 11 Upstream Regulatory Region Triggers Hair-Follicle-Specific Gene Expression in Transgenic Mice
Researchers generated transgenic mice with the upstream regulatory region (URR) of human papillomavirus type 11 linked to the Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase gene to study hair-specific gene expression. They found that the reporter gene was specifically transcribed in the epithelial cells of the hair bulge region, with expression beginning after birth and not during embryogenesis. The study also revealed that treatments with dexamethasone and ultraviolet B increased the number and intensity of hair follicles expressing the reporter gene, while phorbol myristate acetate and progesterone did not have this effect.
