hGFAP‐cre transgenic mice for manipulation of glial and neuronal function in vivo
Abstract
With the goal of performing astrocyte‐specific modification of genes in the mouse, we have generated a transgenic line expressing Cre recombinase under the control of the human glial fibrillary acidic protein (hGFAP) promoter. Activity was monitored by crossing the hGFAP‐cre transgenics with either of two reporter lines carrying a lacZ gene whose expression requires excision of loxP‐flanked stop sequences. We found that lacZ expression was primarily limited to the central nervous system, but therein was widespread in neurons and ependyma. Cell types within the brain that notably failed to activate lacZ expression included Purkinje neurons of the cerebellum and choroid plexus epithelium. Onset of Cre expression began in the forebrain by e13.5, suggesting that the hGFAP promoter is active in a multi‐potential neural stem cell. genesis 31:85–94, 2001. © 2001 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

“Subsequent breeding of the Cre transgenics with mice carrying an allele containing a critical region flanked by loxP sites results in excision of the floxed sequence specifically in the cells expressing the Cre transgene (Gu et al., 1994; Kühn et al., 1995; Tsien et al., 1996).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
