Lineage Tracing and Cell Ablation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All mouse experiments were performed according to the animal experimental guidelines issued by the Animal Care and Use Committee at Harvard University. Gli1-nLacZ (JAX #008211) Gli1CreERt2 (JAX #007913), Rosa26tdTomato (JAX #007909) iDTR mice (JAX # 007900), Ptprca-Pepcb mice (JAX #002014) were purchased from Jackson Laboratories (Bar Harbor, ME). For lineage tracing studies 6–7 week old mice received 3 × 0.1mg/kg bodyweight tamoxifen in corn oil / 3% ethanol (Sigma) via intraperitoneal injection 10days before surgery or disease induction unless otherwise stated. All models of organ injury and cell-specific ablation experiments are described in the Supplementary Experimental Procedures.

All efforts were made to minimize animal suffering and to reduce the number of animals used. Animals were housed under a 12/12-h light/dark cycle and fed ad libitum. Male 8-wk-old wild-type mice (C57BL/6, obtained from Japan SLC), male Nestin–CreERT2::Stop–EGFP (a generous gift from Dr. I. Imayoshi), male iDTR mice (purchased from the Jackson Laboratory), and male and female Hexb–CreERT2::Stop–YFP mice (50 (link)) were used for a mouse model of ischemic stroke. All experiments were carried out according to the animal experimentation guidelines of Kyushu University, Tokai University, or University of Tokyo, which comply with the NIH Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.

Jak2V617F Knock-in Mouse Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All mice used in this study were on the C57BL/6 background. Floxed heterozygous JakV617F/+ knock-in animals (a gift of Dr. Ann Mullally (13 (link))) were bred with Pf4-Cre transgenic mice (a gift of Dr. Radek Skoda(23 (link))) to induce Jak2V617F expression in megakaryocyte lineage-committed cells. Vav-Cre (Stock# 008610) and Mx1-Cre (Stock# 003556) transgenic mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME) and bred with Jak2V617F/+ mice to induce pan-hematopoietic Jak2V617F expression. For megakaryocyte depletion studies, iDTR mice (which harbor a conditional Cre-inducible diphtheria toxin receptor (DTR) (24 (link))) were obtained from Jackson Laboratory (Stock# 007900) and crossed to Pf4-Cre+ mice. For lineage tracing studies, mTmG Cre switch reporter mice (25 (link)) were obtained from Jackson Laboratory (Stock# 007676) and bred to Jak2V617F/+; Pf4-Cre+ mice to confirm lineage-specific Cre expression. Animal studies were approved by the IACUC of both Northwestern University and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Targeted Ablation of Lymphatic Vessels

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
LYVE-1-Cre mice, iDTR mice, and GFP mice were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory. C57BL/6 mice (age, 8 to 10 weeks; weight, ~22 to 25 g) were purchased from Hua Fukang (Beijing, China). The LYVE1-Cre mouse was chosen for its selective enhanced GFP expression in the nuclei of cells expressing LYVE-1. To ablate LYVE1-expressing LVs in a DT-dependent manner, LYVE-1-Cre mice were crossed with iDTR mice (LYVE-1-Cre/iDTR mice). LVs were ablated by administering DT (1.25 ng/g body weight, dissolved in Hanks’ balanced salt solution; Sigma-Aldrich) to LYVE-1-Cre/iDTR mice intravenously unless otherwise indicated. All mice were provided with a standard diet and access to water. Mice were anesthetized and euthanized with 1% sodium pentobarbital solution (0.009 ml/g, Sigma, USA) by intraperitoneal injection. Animals were bred and maintained at Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.

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.
