C57bl 6 lysm cre mice

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in Japan

The C57Bl/6 LysM-Cre mice are a genetically modified mouse strain that expresses Cre recombinase under the control of the lysozyme M (LysM) promoter. This results in Cre expression in myeloid cells, including macrophages and neutrophils.

Generating Tie2-KO Myeloid Cells in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Tie2-KO mice were generated by breeding C57Bl/6 LysM-Cre mice (Jackson Laboratory, #004781) with Tie2flox/flox mice (26 (link)). C57BL/6 Rosa26-YFPfl/fl mice were crossed with C57Bl/6 LysM-Cre to constitutively label myeloid cells. For all experiments, 8- to 12-week-old mice of both genders were used if not otherwise indicated. Mice were housed in sterile cages, maintained in a temperature-controlled room and fed autoclaved water and food ad libitum. All animals were monitored daily for signs of disease. Ear punches were used for genotyping and tail tips were collected for re-genotyping after experiments. Mice were euthanized by cervical dislocation. All experiments were performed according to the guidelines of the institutional and governmental Animal Care and Use Committees and approved by the Regierungspräsidium Karlsruhe (permits G287/16, DKFZ305, DKFZ370).

Genetically Modified Mouse Models

BALB/c mice of SHIP1 wild type (+/+) or SHIP1 knockout (-/-) were kindly provided by Dr. Gerald Krystal (BC Cancer Research Centre, Vancouver, BC). C57BL/6 STAT3-/- mice were generated by crossing C57BL/6 STAT3flox/flox mice (Dr. Shizuo Akira, Hyogo College of Medicine, Nishinomiya, Japan) with C57BL/6 LysMCre mice (Jackson Laboratory). Offspring of these mice were heterozygous on both alleles, and were then crossed with homozygous STAT3flox/flox mice to generate mice with a genotype of STAT3flox/flox /LysMCre+/-. Then, STAT3flox/flox /LysMCre+/- mice were crossed with STAT3flox/flox mice to generate both STAT3flox/flox /LysMCre+/- mice (STAT3-/- mice) and STAT3flox/flox mice (STAT3+/+ mice) in the same litters. For mRNA analysis and immunoblotting studies, BALB/c mice +/+ or -/- for SHIP1 and C57BL/6 LysMCre mice +/+ or -/- for STAT3 were used. Both male and female were used, aged between 6–20 weeks old. All mice were housed and maintained in accordance with the ethic protocols approved by the University of British Columbia Animal Care Committee.

Conditional Knockout Mice for AHR and CD39

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C57BL/6, LysM-Cre mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories. AHRmut mice have been previously described50 . CD39loxP/loxP will be described elsewhere (S.R. and S.C.R., submitted); requests for CD39loxP/loxP should be addressed to S.C.R. (srobson@bidmc.harvard.edu). Mice in which AHR or CD39 is specifically deleted in macrophages were generated by crossing LysM-Cre mice with AHRloxP/loxP or CD39loxP/loxP mice, respectively. The deletion of AHR and CD39 in macrophages was verified by PCR, western blotting and flow cytometry (Supplementary Figs. 3 and 5). Mice were kept in a conventional, pathogen-free facility at the Harvard Institutes of Medicine and the Building for Transformative Medicine. All mouse experiments were carried out in accordance with guidelines prescribed by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at Harvard Medical School.

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.
