Trpv1 cre

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United States

TRPV1-Cre is a transgenic mouse line that expresses Cre recombinase under the control of the transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1 (Trpv1) promoter. Trpv1 encodes the capsaicin receptor, which is expressed in a subset of sensory neurons. This mouse line can be used to genetically manipulate gene expression in a Trpv1-positive cell population.

All animal procedures were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of Brown University, Providence. Transient receptor potential vanilloid receptor 1 (Trpv1)‐Cre, vesicular GABA transporter (VGAT)‐Cre, somatostatin (SOM)‐cre, cyclin E2 (CCNE2)‐GFP, lox‐STOP‐lox‐ChR2‐EYFP, and lox‐STOP‐lox‐TdTomato mice were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory. Trpv1‐Cre+/+ mice were mated with ChR2‐EYFP+/+ mice to generate Trpv1+/−/ChR2‐EYFP+/− offspring (referred to as TRPV1/ChR2). TRPV1/ChR2 mice used in this study were first‐generation progeny of homozygous parents. Vgat‐cre+/+ and Som‐cre+/+ were mated with TdTomato+/+ mice to generate Vgat‐cre+/+/TdTomato+/+ and Som‐cre+/+/TdTomato+/+ (referred to as VGAT‐ and SOM/TdTom, respectively). CCNE2‐GFP+/+ mice were kept on a homozygous breeding schedule to generate CCNE2‐GFP+/+ offspring. Both male and female mice were used for this study.

Mrgpra3Cre-EGFP mice (Han et al., 2013 (link)) were imported from Dr. Qin Liu’s lab at the Washington University School of Medicine to Dr. Luo’s lab at the University of Pennsylvania. RosaChR2f/f (JAX 012569), Vglut2f/f (JAX 012898) (Tong et al., 2007 (link)), Trpv1Cre (JAX 017769) (Cavanaugh et al., 2011 (link)), and RosaTdtf/f (JAX 007909) (Madisen et al., 2010 (link)) mice were purchased from the Jackson Laboratories. The NmbrCre knock-in mouse line was generated by Dr. Janardhan Bhattarai in the lab, using mouse fertilized oocyte injection of CRISPR/CAS9 mixture conducted by the Johns Hopkins Transgenic Core (details of this mouse line generation will be published in another manuscript). Animals were housed in facilities at the University of Pennsylvania and at the Washington University School of Medicine. All experiments were conducted in accordance with the National Institute of Health guidelines and with approval from the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of University of Pennsylvania and Washington University School of Medicine. Adult male and female mice with desired genotypes were kept in a standard 12-h light/dark cycle, with water and food pellets available ad libitum. Litters and animals were randomized at the time of assigning experimental conditions for the whole study.

Mice were housed in a temperature- and light-controlled room (23 ± 2°C and 12 h light/dark cycle, respectively) with ad libitum food (2918 Teklad global 18% protein rodent diet, Envigo) and water. TRPV1-Cre (stock number 017769) and GCaMP6f (stock number 028865) strains were purchased from Jackson Laboratories. Mice with p35 knockout or transgenic overexpression, i.e., p35−/− background and Tgp35 mice, were generated in our laboratory (Pareek and Kulkarni, 2006 (link)). P35−/− mice were maintained in a C57BL6/129SVJ background. Tgp35 mice and wild-type littermate controls were maintained in an FVBN background. For imaging, mice were crossed to generate a GCaMP6 and TRPV1-Cre line, which was then maintained with p35−/− or tgp35 backgrounds. 78 mice were used (39 male and 39 female): C57BL6/129SVJ mice (JAX 000664, n = 18), TRPV1-Cre (+/−) GCaMP6(+/−) mice (n = 9), TRPV1-Cre (+/−) P35(−/−) GCaMP6 (+/−) mice (n = 9), TRPV1-Cre(+/−) GCaMP6(+/−)Tgp35 in FVBN background mice (n = 21) and TRPV1-Cre(+/−) GCaMP6(+/−) in FVBN background mice (n = 21). At the time of live imaging procedures, the mice were approximately 10–12 weeks old. For all experiments, age-matched wild-type littermates served as controls.

Adult male C57BL/6J mice (6 to 8 weeks old) were obtained from Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd. (Beijing, China). Trpv1-Cre+/+ (strain number: #017769) and ROSA26iDTR+/+ mice (strain number: #007900) were acquired from the Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbo, Maine, USA). To deplete TRPV1 neurons, Trpv1-Cre+/+ mice were crossbred with ROSA26iDTR+/+ mice, resulting in TRPV1 neuron-depleted mice (Trpv1-Cre/DTR). The mice were bred and housed in the animal center of the Eye Institute of Shandong First Medical University. All animal experiments were conducted in accordance with the ARVO Statement for the Use of Animals in Ophthalmic and Vision Research and were approved by the Ethics Committee of the Eye Institute of Shandong First Medical University.

All experimental procedures were approved by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona Animal Experimentation Ethical Committee and followed the European Communities Council Directive 2010/63/EU and the Spanish National law (RD 53/2013). Mice were generated by breeding homozygous Ai9(RCL-tdT) mice (JAX stock #007909) (Madisen et al., 2010 (link)) with different homozygous Cre-driver lines from The Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME, USA): ChAT-IRES-Cre (choline acetyltransferase, JAX stock #006410) (Rossi et al., 2011 (link)), B6 PVcre (parvalbumin, JAX stock #017320), Npy2r-IRES-Cre (neuropeptide Y receptor Y2, JAX stock #029285) (Barrozo et al., 2016 (link)), and TRPV1-Cre (transient receptor potential vanilloid 1, JAX stock #017769) (Cavanaugh et al., 2011 (link)). We obtained four mice lines that expressed the red fluorescent protein TdTomato under the control of a specific neuronal promoter: ChAT-Cre/Ai9, PV-Cre/Ai9, Npy2r-Cre/Ai9, and TRPV1-Cre/Ai9, respectively. The same Cre-driver lines were bred to homozygous Ribotag mice (Sanz et al., 2009 (link)). We obtained mice that expressed HA-tagged ribosomes in specific cell populations: ChAT-Cre/Ribotag, PV-Cre/Ribotag, Npy2r-Cre/Ribotag, and TRPV1-Cre/Ribotag, respectively. Mice were housed in a controlled environment (12 hr light-dark cycle, 22 ± 2°C), in open cages with water and food ad libitum.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Animal handling, anesthetic procedures, and experiments were performed in accordance with the NIH Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals and the ARVO Statement for the Use of Animals in Ophthalmic and Vision Research. The project was approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees at the University of Utah. We assessed retinal TRPV1 expression using a knock-in mouse in which Cre was inserted into Exon 15 of Trpv1 (TRPV1Cre; Jackson Laboratory 017769). This line was crossed to B6.Cg-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm9(CAG-tdTomato)Hze/J (Ai9; 007909) in which the LoxP-STOP-LoxP TdTomato construct is knocked in at the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus (Madison et al., 2010 (link); Jo et al., 2017 (link)). Trpv4-/- mice have an excised exon 12-encoding transmembrane pore domains 5 and 6 (Liedtke and Friedman, 2003 (link)). C57BL/6J (C57), bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)-transgenic Tg(TRPV4- EGFP)MT43Gsat mice (referred to as TRPV4eGFP), TRPV1-/-, TRPV4-/-, TRPV1Cre:Ai3, and TRPV1Cre:Ai9 mice were maintained in a pathogen-free facility with a 12-h light/dark cycle and unrestrained access to food and water. Data were gathered from male and female mice with no noted gender differences.

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.
