Effects of leptin gene expression in mice in vivo by electroporation and hydrodynamics-based gene delivery.

abstract：:The immunoglobulin mu intronic enhancer is a potent B cell-specific transcriptional activator. The enhancer is activated by the appropriate combination of transcription factors, amongst which are ets and bHLH proteins. HMGA1 (formerly HMG-I(Y)) is a demonstrated co-activator of the mu enhancer. HMGA1 functions through...
