Invention Novelty: The Johns Hopkins researchers have developed BTKO mice having floxed alleles for both Bmp1 and Tll1, such that they can be conditionally knocked out either temporally, postnatally, or in a tissue-specific, non-lethal manner and have overcome issues of functional redundancy. Value Proposition: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), or brittle...

GDF11 Flox Mouse Line

Brief OverviewJHU researchers generated the GDF11 flox mouse line by inserting a loxP site upstream of exon 2 and a floxed neo cassette downstream of exon 3. Cre mediated recombination was then used to remove the neo cassette leaving exons 2 and 3 floxed (Molecular Image Detail). Detailed Technology OverviewMyostatin (Mstn) and growth/differentiation...

TII2 Flox Mouse Line

ABSTRACTJHU researcher generated mice carrying a targeted deletion of the Tll2 gene. The construct was generated which a LoxP site and a LoxP/neo cassette which were introduced into introns 6 and 7, respectively. Following homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells and transfer of the targeted cells into blastocysts, several chimeric mice were...

TII1 Flox Mouse Line

ABSTRACTThis genetically engineered mouse line carries a floxed allele for TII1, which encodes a metalloprotease involved in regulating myostatin and GDF-11 activity. The line may be useful for developing drugs capable of modulating the activities of myostatin and/or GDF-11, for example for enhancing muscle growth and regeneration. TII1 is also involved...

Bmp1 Flox Mouse Line

ABSTRACTThis genetically engineered mouse line carries a floxed allele for Bmpl, which encodes a metalloprotease involved in regulating myostatin and GDF-11 activity. The line may be useful for developing drugs capable of modulating the activities of myostatin and/or GDF-11, for example for enhancing muscle growth and regeneration. Bmp1 is also involved...

Soluble Form of Activin Type IIB Receptor (ACVR2B/Fc)

Invention Novelty: This technology identifies the use of soluble receptor (ACVR2B/Fc) to block the activities of members of the TGF-beta superfamily of signaling molecules.Value Proposition:Myostatin is a member of the TGF-β family; it suppresses muscle growth and its absence stimulates muscle growth substantially. Most of the myostatin inhibitors...

C05182: Novel Protein Increases Muscle Mass

Technical Details: Muscle mass is normally regulated by the activities of members of the transforming growth factor-B (TGF-B) superfamily, which act to limit muscle growth. Scientists at JHU have now found a protein that is capable of binding certain members of the TGF-B family and inhibiting their activities in vitro. Therefore this protein has important...
