A Gene Knockout Mouse Model to Study Lung Disease and a Lung Disease Drug Target

Our researchers have created a gene knockout mouse model that lacks the cytochrome c oxidase subunit IV-2 in order to study the gene’s effects on controlling asthma. Background & Unmeet Need: Asthma is an inflammatory disease of the airways that affects 155 million people of all ages worldwide. Cytochome c oxidase (CcO) is a multi-subunit...
