Il 17rc mice

Manufactured by Genentech

The IL-17RC-/- mice are genetically modified mice that lack the interleukin-17 receptor C (IL-17RC) gene. These mice are a useful tool for studying the role of IL-17 signaling in various biological processes and disease models.

Genetically Engineered Mouse Models for Neuroinflammation

Inbred female C57BL/6J, Rag1-/-, Rag2-/-, IL-6-/- and IL-10-/- mice were obtained from the Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME). IL-17A-/-, CD11cdnTGF-RII, and CD4dnTGF-RII mice were described previously (38 (link)–40 (link)). IL-17RC-/- mice were developed by Genentech and were obtained from the Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Center (University of California, Davis). IL-17RA-/- and IL-17RA-/-RC-/- were developed in our Lab and described previously (41 (link)). IL-17RD-/- mice were obtained from the Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Center (University of California, Davis). All mice used in this study have a B6 background and were bred in-house. Only female (6 to 8-wk-old) mice were used in the study as male mice are more resistance to HSV-IL-2-induced CNS demyelination than female mice (21 (link)). This is comparable to observations made in other models for MS.

Murine Model for Pneumocystis Infection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All mouse colonies were maintained in the Rangos Research Building Animal Facility and use was approved and performed in accordance with the University of Pittsburgh Institutional Care and Use Committee (Protocol: 14084329 and 16027674). C57BL/6, BALB/c, Cxcr5/, Lta/, Stat6/, Gata1tm6Sho/J, Rag1/ and Rag2−/−Il2rg−/− mice were all ordered from The Jackson Laboratory. The Il17ra/ and Il17rb/ mice were generated at Amgen. The Il17rc/ mice were generated at GenenTech. Both male and female mice were used throughout experiments in an equal manner. Mice ranged from 6–8 weeks old, unless otherwise specified. Mice were randomized based on cage. Sample size was determined using power calculations based off of prior experiments at day 14 post-infection that showed a 6-fold reduction in Pneumocystis burden with a 10% standard deviation. With a type I error rate of 0.05 and a power of 0.90, we calculated the use of at least 4 mice per group.

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.
