Using mouse genetics in combination with novel sequencing technologies our lab is able to identify key cell types or candidate factors important for specific remodeling and repair processes of the heart. (hubrecht.eu)
The team found deep conservation of certain processes that likely reflects similar underlying regulatory processes between mouse and man, but there were also significant differences in gene expression during kidney development, as well as in the timing, scale, organization, and molecular profile of key cell types and cell structures.

Not only that, the number of key cells in the basal forebrain — which plays an important role in learning and memory — are reduced when ovaries are removed. (newscientist.com)
