Trp53flox flox mice

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United States

Trp53flox/flox mice are genetically engineered mice with the p53 gene flanked by loxP sites. This allows for tissue-specific or cell-type-specific deletion of the p53 gene through the use of Cre recombinase.

Female mice of the C57BL/6 J strain and Balb/cAnu/nu (nude mice) at 5 weeks of age were purchased from CLEA Japan Inc. (Tokyo, Japan). Conditional knock-in mice heterozygous for the Lox-STOP-Lox-KrasG12D allele (hereafter referred to as KrasLSL-G12D/+ mice) and Trp53flox/flox mice were obtained from the Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME, USA) and maintained in a C57BL/6 J background. These mice were intercrossed to generate KrasLSL-G12D/+; Trp53flox/flox mice. Genotyping was performed after weaning as previously described [28 (link),50 (link),]. Animal studies were carried out with the approval of the Chiba Cancer Center for Ethics in Animal Experimentation.

Conditional Trp53 Deletion in Colonic Stem Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To delete exons 2–10 of Trp53 in colonic stem cells, Trp53flox/flox mice (Jackson, 008462) or Rosa26-LacZ mice (Jackson, 003474) were crossed with Lgr5-EGFP-IRES-creERT2 mice (15 (link)) (Jackson, 008875). All mice were crossed onto a C57BL/6 background for at least 10 generations. Details related to the tamoxifen induced Cre-mediated recombination in the colon of Lgr5-EGFP-CreERT2 / R26R-LacZ reporter mice have been reported (16 (link)). Mice were maintained on an AIN-76A semi-purified diet (Research Diets, D10001), fed ad libitum and housed on a 12h-12h light-dark cycle. For genotyping analysis, DNA was extracted from tails using DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit (Qiagen, 69506). PCR was performed using the following primers: p53flox (5'-GGTTAAACCCAGCTTGACCA-3' and 5'-GGAGGCAGAGACAGTTGGAG-3') and cre recombinase (5'-GCATTACCGGTCGATGCAACGAGTG-3' and 5'-GAACGCTAGAGCCTGTTTTGCACGTTC-3').

Generation of KPC Pancreatic Cancer Model

KrasLSL‐G12D/+ mice (008179#), Trp53 flox/flox mice (008462#), and Pdx1‐Cre mice (014647#) were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory (ME, USA). KrasLSL‐G12D/+ and Pdx1‐Cre mice were crossed with Trp53flox/flox mice. After two generations, KrasLSL‐G12D/+; Trp53flox/flox mice and Pdx1‐Cre; Trp53flox/flox mice were crossed to generate KrasLSL‐G12D/+; Trp53flox/flox; Pdx1‐Cre (KPC) mice. To generate the KPC‐1A cell line, the ascites from a 7‐week‐old male KPC mouse was collected by a sterilized injector and centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 5 min. After washing with PBS twice, the remaining cells were cultured with Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100 U mL−1 penicillin, and 100 µg mL−1 streptomycin. After subculturing for 3 generations, a stable adherent cell line was obtained and named KPC‐1A.

Krasex3op mice were previously described (Pershing et al., 2015 (link)), Trp53flox/flox mice (Marino et al., 2000 (link)) were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory (Jax # 008462), and SftpcCreER/CreER mice (Xu et al., 2012 (link)) were kindly provided by Mark Onaitis (University of California at San Diego). SftpcCreER/CreER;Trp53flox/flox; Krasex3op mice were from a mixed 129 × C57BL/6 background. Krasex3op mice used for mutagenesis studies were from a pure 129 background. Mice were genotyped using the following primers:
Kras native and ex3op alleles:
SftpcCreER allele:
Trp53 allele:
All animal experiments were approved by Duke IACUC.

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.
