Nlrp3 ko mice

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United States

NLRP3 KO mice are genetically modified mice that have had the NLRP3 gene knocked out. The NLRP3 gene is responsible for the production of the NLRP3 protein, which is a key component of the NLRP3 inflammasome. These mice can be used in research to study the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in various biological processes and disease models.

All experiments, excluding those using neonatal mice, utilized 6–8-wk-old male MyD88 knockout (KO) mice (gift of Jian-Dong Li, Georgia State University, Atlanta, GA, USA), IL-18 KO mice (Jackson Laboratories), IL-1R KO (Jackson Laboratories), NLRP3 KO mice (Jackson Laboratories, Bar Harbor, ME, USA) or C57BL/6 offspring from C57BL/6 mice originally purchased from Jackson Laboratories. Experiments involving neonatal mice used 6-d-old neonates bred in-house.

Acclimation and Handling of NLRP3 KO Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Male NLRP3 KO mice and wild-type mice (8 weeks old) with C57BL/6 background were purchased from the Jackson Laboratory, experimental Animal Center (Shanghai, China). After arrival, the mice were housed in a temperature and humidity-controlled animal experiment laboratory with a 12-h light/dark cycle (lights on at 7:00 a.m.), and standard laboratory water and chow were provided randomly. To reduce environmental effects, those mice were allowed to adapt to laboratory conditions for 2 weeks before use.
The experimental procedures involving animals were performed by the ARRIVE (Animal Research: Reporting of In Vivo Experiments) guidelines (Percie du Sert et al., 2020 (link); Karp et al., 2015 (link)), and approved by the Animal Experimental Ethical Inspection Form of Southeast University.

Genetic Manipulation of Mice for Kidney Damage Research

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Agtr1a KO and NLRP3 KO mice on the C57BL/6 background were purchased from Jackson laboratory and were backcrossed to the 129/SvEv mouse strain for ≥6 generations to increase their susceptibility to kidney damage[26 (link)]. Thereafter, heterozygotes on the 129/SvEv background were intercrossed to yield knock-out (KO) and wild-type (WT) littermates for our experiments. Eight- to 12-week-old male mice were used for the experiments. All experiments described in this manuscript were included in an animal use protocol approved by the Ethics Review Committees for Animal Experimentation of Southeast University.

Genetically Modified Mouse Models for Inflammation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were housed in a 12:12 h light–dark cycle with food and water ad libitum. For all experiments, C57B/6 mice of the same age were used. For the IL1β bioassay, we used mice in which the entire coding sequence of Nlrp3 was replaced with a Neo cassette (Nlrp3 KO mice, The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME USA; #B6.129S6- Nlrp3tm1Bhk/J). Genotyping was performed with 5x HOT FIREPol EvaGreen® qPCR Mix and a total volume of 20 µL and primer sequences as follows: mutant forward 5′-TGCCTGCTCTTTACTGAAGG-3′, wild type forward 5′-TCAGTTTCCTTGGCTACCAGA-3′, and common reverse 5′-TTCCATTACAGTCACTCCAGATGT-3′, as described by The Jackson Laboratory. B6.129P2-Lyz2tm1(cre)Ifo/J mice (The Jackson Laboratory) were crossed with C57B/6 mice bearing LoxP sites upstream and downstream of Tsc22d3 exon 6 to obtain myeloid-specific Gilz knockout (KO) mice. Breeding and genotyping were performed as described previously [47 (link)].

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.
