Cd45.1 congenic mice

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United States

CD45.1 congenic mice are a type of laboratory mouse that express the CD45.1 allele instead of the more common CD45.2 allele. The CD45 protein is a receptor-linked protein tyrosine phosphatase that is essential for the development and activation of T cells and B cells. The CD45.1 congenic mice are a useful tool for distinguishing between different cell populations in immunological studies and experiments.

Tgfbr1M318R and Tgfbr2G357W knock-in mice were generated as previously described [4]. Homozygousity Tgfbr1M318R/M318R is embryonic lethal due to vascular malformations. Heterozygous Tgfbr1M318R/+ (R1) mice were compared to age- and sex-matched controls homozygous for Tgfbr1+/+. Heterozygous Tgfbr2G357W (R2) mice were compared to age- and sex-matched controls homozygous for Tgfbr2+/+. R1 and WT mice were cohoused to minimize cage effects. Recombination Activating Gene 2 (RAG2) deficient mice were obtained from Taconic Farms. CD45.1 congenic mice were purchased from Jackson and backcrossed >12 generations with 129SvE mice purchased from Taconic Farms. IL-5 transgenic mice [132] and were bred onsite and housed under specific pathogen free conditions. Animals were maintained on a fixed diet of autoclaved water and chow (NIH-31M). All experiments were approved by the NIAID’s ACUC and conducted in accordance with Animal Study Protocol (ASP) LAD11E. Gross photos were taken with a Canon PowerShot ELPH170 IS digital camera with 12X optical zoom.

Conditional Knockout Mice for Immunological Studies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Il4−/−, and CD45.1 congenic mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories. CYLD floxed61 (link) and Scinderin floxed mice37 (link) were kindly provided by Dr. Ting, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and Dr. Glogauer, University of Toronto, respectively. The floxed mice were crossed with Foxp3-cre-YFP62 (link) mice to generate the conditional knockout mice in the animal facility at La Jolla Institute for Immunology. For inducible deletion of CYLD in Treg cells, CYLD floxed mice were crossed with mice expressing CreERT2 fusion gene under control of Foxp3 gene. For the induction of Cre recombinase nuclear translocation, 6-week-old mice were injected intraperitoneally with 100 μl of 10 mg/ml tamoxifen (Sigma T5648) once every day for seven days. All mice were maintained according to the animal protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the La Jolla Institute for Immunology. Six to twelve week-old mice were used for most experiments, and aged mice (8 month-old) were used for histological analysis. Both female and male mice were randomly assigned to each group since there was no difference in observed phenotypes between male and female mice. However, only female heterozygote Foxp3cre/+ mice were used for other experiments.

C57BL/6, Thy1.1, and CD45.1 congenic mice were obtained from The Jackson Laboratory. IL-21R KO mice (B6N.129-Il21r/J), originally purchased from The Jackson Laboratory, were bred in house under specific pathogen free conditions at the Animal Research Facility at The George Washington University (Washington, DC). Mixed bone marrow chimeric animals (WT: IL-21R KO at a 1:1 ratio) were generated as previously described (19 (link)). Briefly, lethally irradiated Thy1.1 recipients (8Gy/20g of body weight) were injected intravenously with 5x106 magnetically purified hematopoietic progenitor cells from WT (CD45.1) and IL-21R KO (CD45.2) animals (Stemcell). Transferred animals received water supplemented with sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim (Hi-Tech Pharmacal Co) for 4-5 weeks after injection and experiments were conducted 4-8 weeks post reconstitution. All animal experiments were approved by The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee.

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.
