What's a GeneRIF?

Collectively, results of this study suggest that Apod is a novel regulatory gene in the male reproductive system, especially in penises of rats fed a high-cholesterol diet, and that expression of Apod is regulated at the posttranscriptional level by target microRNAs.
Title: Differential expression of apolipoprotein D in male reproductive system of rats by high-fat diet.
apoD may be part of an intrinsic cardioprotective system, possibly as a consequence of its antioxidation activity.
Title: Identification of apolipoprotein D as a cardioprotective gene using a mouse model of lethal atherosclerotic coronary artery disease.
Apolipoprotein D exerts neurotrophic and synaptogenic effects in dorsal root ganglion cell cultures.
Title: Apolipoproteins D and E3 exert neurotrophic and synaptogenic effects in dorsal root ganglion cell cultures.
We propose that apoD promotes its neuroprotective effects by binding to arachidonic acid and cholesterol thus preventing their oxidation to neurotoxic products such as 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) and 7-ketocholesterol.
Title: Apolipoprotein D modulates F2-isoprostane and 7-ketocholesterol formation and has a neuroprotective effect on organotypic hippocampal cultures after kainate-induced excitotoxic injury.
apoD is involved in regenerative processes and scar formation in the peri-infarct area presumably by enhancing lipid trafficking.
Title: Apolipoprotein D is elevated in oligodendrocytes in the peri-infarct region after experimental stroke: influence of enriched environment.
The increased expression of apoD by atypical antipsychotics may reflect a novel molecular mechanism underlying their favorable effects compared with haloperidol on cognition, negative symptoms and extra-pyramidal symptoms in schizophrenia
Title: Antipsychotic drugs differentially modulate apolipoprotein D in rat brain.
ApoD can be expressed or taken up by SMCs and can regulate their motility in response to growth factors.
Title: Apolipoprotein D and platelet-derived growth factor-BB synergism mediates vascular smooth muscle cell migration.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
