MATERIALS AND METHODS Animals As described previously, proCPR/ mice (129/Ola,
BALB/c, and C57BL/6 background) were generated by knocking out the portion of the gene
containing exons 4 and 5 to eliminate all CPR activity. 11) In this study, we used 5-to 8-week-
old proCPR/mice. Similar background proCPR/mice were used as controls. It has been
confirmed that there was no gender difference in CPN and CPR activities in these
proCPR/and proCPR/mice. The experimental protocol was approved by the Animal Studies …
