Genetic Regulation of Gelsolin in Lung in Mouse Model and its Potential Broad Spectrum of Biological Functions

Considerable studies have been done on the potential biological function of gelsolin and its connection to human immune system, diseases and other disorders.

The objective of our study was to identify genetic factors that regulate gelsolin in mouse lung and analyze its function immune system using well defined recombinant inbred strains.
Gelsolin in Lung

For this purpose we chose the BXD recombinant inbred (RI) strains derived from progeny of the C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (D2) progenitor strains. Whole genome gene expression in lung was used for the eQTL mapping.
