Abstract:The putative mouse homologue of cytochrome P-450 4F16 (Cyp4f16) is induced by interleukin-1 (Il-1), interleukin-6 (Il-6) and tumour necrosis factor-α (Tnf-α) and repressed by interleukin-10 (Il-10) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The Cyp4F16 is a subfamily of Cyp4F and it is also related to eicosanoids that are important mediators in the inflammatory cascade (Cui et al. 2001). To investigate the role of Cyp4F16, in the present study, we report the production of Cyp4f16 gene knock-down mice in 2 strains of mice, … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
