K5-UCP3 FVB/N and K5-Akt FVB/N mice were previously generated using a bovine keratin 5 (K5) targeting construct as previously described18 (link),33 (link),51 (link), maintained as hemizygous breeder colonies, and crossed K5-UCP3×K5-Akt to produce bitransgenic K5-UCP3/K5-Akt mice and littermate controls. FVB/N mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories (Bar Harbor, ME). Tg.AC mice were purchased from Taconic (Hudson, NY). Unless otherwise indicated, all experiments were performed using sex matched adult, 6–8 week old mice. All animal husbandry and experiments were carried out in strict accordance to guidelines defined by the Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) and approved by the institutional animal research committees at The University of Texas at Austin and UT-MD Anderson, Science Park Research Division.

Transgenic Mouse Models for Oncogenesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All animal experiments were approved by the University of South Florida Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Mice were housed in pathogen-free facilities. Tg.AC mice described previously (Tepper et al., 1990 (link)) were obtained from Taconic. S100A9Tg mice on FVB/N background (Cheng et al., 2008 (link)) and S100A9KO mice on C57BL/6 background (Manitz et al., 2003 (link)) were described previously. BALB/c, C57BL/6, and FVB/N mice were obtained from the National Cancer Institute, and OT-1 mice were obtained from the Jackson Laboratory. In S100A9Tg;Tg.AC bitransgenic mice, the presence of S100A9-IRES-GFP transgene was verified by the expression of GFP in leukocytes from peripheral blood, and the v-h-ras transgene was detected by genomic PCR for the SV40 sequences. In some experiments, S100A9Tg mice on C57BL/6 background were used after backcrossing S100A9Tg FVB/N mice with C57BL/6 mice for nine generations.

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.
