Mice were housed in the Center for Comparative Physiology at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research. C57BL/6 (B6) and B6.C-H2d/bByJ (B6.H2d) mice were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory. RAGE KO mice were a generous gift from Kevin Tracey, MD, of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research. LAIR-1 cKO mice were generated by crossing B6.129P2-Lyz2tm1(cre)Ifo/J with B6.Cg-Lair1tm1Jco/J (The Jackson Laboratory) after backcrossing onto the B6.H2d background. B6.Cg-Tg(Camk2a-cre)T29–1Stl/J and Hmgb1tm1.1Rshw/J (Jackson Laboratories) were crossed with in house B6.H2d mice to generate Camk2a-cre HMGB1fl/fl B6.H2d mice. All procedures using mice were conducted using protocols approved by The Feinstein Institutes of Medical Research IACUC (Protocols 2009–048 and 2022–023).

Animal use was approved and overseen by the Harvard University Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee and the Harvard Center for Comparative Medicine. The following mouse lines were used: wild-type C57/BL6 (Jackson Laboratory, 000664); Npas4fl/fl14 (link); Npas4-knockout14 (link); Tip60fl/fl49 (link); Npas4–Flag-HA (this manuscript); Arnt2–Flag-HA (this manuscript), Tip60-H3F50 (link); Mre11fl/fl51 (link),52 (link); B6;129-Gt(ROSA)26Sor<tm5(CAG-Sun1/sfGFP)Nat>/J (Jackson Laboratory, 021039)53 (link); and B6.Cg-Tg(Camk2a-cre)T29-1Stl/J (Jackson Laboratory, 005329)54 (link). Mice were housed in a temperature and humidity-controlled environment using ventilated microisolator cages. Mice were kept under a standard 12 h light–dark cycle, with food and water provided ad libitum. Male and female littermate mice were used in similar proportions and divided between control and experimental groups for all experiments conducted. No statistical methods were used to predetermine sample sizes. For biochemistry and genomic experiments, animals were collected at 4–6 weeks of age throughout the manuscript. For physiology experiments, animals were dissected and patched at postnatal day 24 (P24) to P28. For ageing experiments, animals were collected at 3-4 months, 12 months and 23–27 months of age. Details of animal age and sex are detailed within each protocol.

Genetic Manipulation of Mouse Behavior

Both male and female adult (3–6 months old) wildtype (C57BL/6J), DAT-cre [B6.SJL-Slc6a3tm1.1(cre)Bkmn/J, Jackson Laboratory], and CaMKIIa-cre [B6.Cg-Tg(Camk2a-cre)T29-1Stl/J, Jackson Laboratory] mice were included in this study. Mice were housed on a 12 h light/dark cycle and provided ad libitum access to water and food. Prior to stereotaxic surgical injection, mice were housed in groups (2–4 per cage). Littermates were randomly assigned to experimental groups or control groups. Following the surgical procedure, mice were subsequently single caged until all experimental procedures were finished. Mice were handled daily for 2 weeks prior to behavioral tests, which were conducted during the light cycle. All experiments were carried out in accordance with Florida State University’s laboratory animal care and use guidelines and approved by the Florida State University Animal Care and Use Committee.

We used C57BL/6 male mice unless otherwise noted (at least 8 weeks old). In addition, we used several genetically modified mouse lines (Camk2, Rbp4, Thy1, Rbp4-Ai32, and Pv-CRE): (B6.Cg-Tg(Camk2a-cre)T29-1Stl/J from the Jackson Laboratory, Tg(Rbp4-cre) from the Jackson Laboratory, B6.Cg-Tg(Thy1-COP4/EYFP)18Gfng/J from the Jackson Laboratory, B6;129S-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm32(CAG-COP4*H134R/EYFP)Hze/J from the Jackson Laboratory crossed with RBP4 mice as above, and B6;129P2-Pvalbtm1(cre)Arbr/J from the Jackson Laboratory. The Hebrew University Animal Care and Use Committee approved all experiments (IACUC NS-16-14216-3, “Functional identification of brain regions involved in ultrasonic vocalization in mice.”).

Channelrhodopsin 2 (ChR2) was injected bilaterally as described on a CamKII promotor in the AAV9 viral serotype into transgenic mice expressing CRE in CamkII-positive neurons [B6.Cg-Tg(Camk2a-cre)T29-1Stl/J from the Jackson Laboratory]. Fiber optical cannulas (multimode fibers FT-200-URT, Thorlabs, Grünberg, Germany) with a diameter of 200 μm and a NA of 0.22 were implanted at a 10° angle into ACC at coordinates (700 lateral, 700 anterior) and covered in dental cement. After recovery and 2 weeks to allow for viral expression, mice were tested while exploring either their home cage or a fresh cage with no female present before or during the session. Light was delivered through a 100-mW laser (1.5 to 3 mW/mm2 using a 473-nm laser; Changchun New Industries Optoelectronics, Changchun, China) attached to a rotary joint splitter (Part # RJ2, Thorlabs, Grünberg, Germany) to allow for free exploration. ACC neurons were activated with 10 s of stimulation with about 30 s of rest between stimulations. Stimulus trains consisted of 20-Hz pulses of 10 ms.

Generation of PERK cKO Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All mice are housed in a barrier facility dedicated to transgenic mice at Wake Forest School of Medicine. Randomization was not used in animal studies. The facility operates in accordance with standards and policies of the US Department of Agriculture’s Animal Welfare Information Center (AWIC), and the NIH Guide for Care and Use of Laboratory Animals. The facility is kept on a 12 h light/dark cycle, with a regular feeding and cage-cleaning schedule. Mice of both sexes were used. The following mice were purchased from the Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME): B6.Cg-Tg (Camk2a-cre)T29-1Stl/J (Camk2a-cre mice), stock No. 005359; Prkaa1tm1.1Sjm/J (loxP-flanked Prkaa1 mice), stock No. 014141; Prkaa2tm1.1Sjm/J (loxP-flanked Prkaa2 mice), stock No. 014142. Generation of PERK cKO mice was as described [27 (link)]. The genotypes were verified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Mice of 3–6-month old were used for all experiments. Investigators were not blind to the group allocation during the experiments.

Animal experiments were approved by the University of Minnesota Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. CaMKIICre [B6.Cg-Tg(Camk2a-cre)T29-1Stl/J] and GADCre (B6N.Cg-Gad2tm2(cre)Zjh/J) lines were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory, and have been maintained by backcrossing against the C57BL/6J strain. Offspring from these crosses were used to generate the Cre(+) and Cre(−) mice used in this study. The generation of conditional CaMKIICre(+):Girk1fl/fl mice was described previously (Marron Fernandez de Velasco et al., 2017 (link)). Unless specifically noted, males and females were used in all experiments, and groups were balanced by sex. All mice were maintained on a 12 h light/dark cycle, and were provided ad libitum access to food and water.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
