The largest database of trusted experimental protocols

Parp1-/- is a genetically modified mouse strain that lacks the expression of the Parp1 gene. Parp1 encodes the enzyme Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase 1, which is involved in DNA repair processes. This mouse strain can be used in research to study the role of Parp1 in various biological systems.

Animals rd1 mice were the albino FVB strain, which carries the Pde6brd1 allele (MGI: 1856373). BALB/c, CD1, and FVB mice were purchased from Charles River Laboratories. Due to availability, some of the FVB mice were purchased from Taconic, and we did not notice any difference between the two sources in terms of cone degeneration rate. C57BL/6J, rd10, and Parp1-/- mice were purchased from The Jackson Laboratories and bred in house. C57BL/6J and rd10, which is on C57BL/6J background, carry a null mutation in the Nnt gene (Freeman et al., 2006 (link)), but not in the other strains (i.e., rd1, Rho-/-, Parp1-/-, CD1, and BALB/c). We crossed the Parp1-/- mice with FVB mice to generate homozygous Parp1-/-rd1 and Parp1+/+rd1 mice. Genotyping of these mice was done by Transnetyx (Cordova, TN). The Rho-/- mice were kindly provided by Janice Lem (Tufts University, MA) (Lem et al., 1999 (link)).

All procedures were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of Weill Cornell Medical College. Experiments were conducted in C57BL/6J mice (The Jackson Laboratories), in mice lacking PARP-1 (The Jackson Laboratories) or Nox2, bred on a C56BL/6J background55 (link),5 (link), and in transgenic mice overexpressing the Swedish mutation of APP (tg2576)17 (link). TRPM2-null mice57 (link) and WT controls were generously provided by Drs Herson and Traystman. All mice were male and 3- to 4-month-old. Age-matched nontransgenic littermates served as controls. Mice were randomly assigned to the experimental groups and experiments were performed in a blinded manner.

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.
