Description
Mice that are homozygous for the transgene are viable, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Upon diphtheria toxin (DT) administration, mice harboring this transgene are transiently depleted of dendritic cell (DC) populations. All CD8+ and CD8- DC in the spleen express EGFP and are DT sensitive. Immunohistochemical and flow cytometric analysis reveals EGFP expression and DT-inducible depletion of CD11chigh DC in spleen, lymph node, lung, liver and lamina propria tissues, as well as the defined macrophage subpopulations of the alveolar, lamina propria, metallophillic and marginal zone. Rapid reduction of CD11c+ DC populations induced by intraperitoneal injection of DT persists for approximately 2 days, after which the cell population gradually recovers. While transient DC depletion was not associated with sign of illness or long-term defects, repeated DT induction is lethal to the mouse. Long term depletion of this cell population can be achieved by the generation of mixed irradiation chimeras. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of mononuclear phagocyte origins and the specific role of dendritic cells in the immune response.

Development
A transgene was designed to place a simian Diphtheria Toxin Receptor (DTR)-Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (EGFP, Stratagene) fusion protein under the control of the Itgax (or CD11c) promoter. This transgene was introduced into fertilized FVB/N donor eggs. The resulting chimeric animals were crossed to C57BL/6 mice, and then backcrossed to C57BL/6 for 5 generations. This transgene has been mapped to mouse Chromosome 1 (~52 cM; 87395187bp position) via single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis by The Jackson Laboratory.

Mutation Made By Steffen Jung,   Weizmann Institute of Science
Strain of OriginFVB/N
Site of ExpressionExpression of the transgene is specific to splenic dendritic cells. All CD8+ and CD8- dentritic cells in the spleen fluoresce and are DT sensititve.
Expressed Gene GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein, jellyfish
Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP), derived from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria, is a versatile reporter molecule which has found use in many biological applications. In some constructs the original molecule has been modified in order to enhance its fluorescence intensity (EGFP, enhanced GFP). When utilized in a transgenic construct, tissue expressing sufficient amounts of GFP will fluoresce when exposed to a 488 nm light source.
Expressed Gene DTR, Simian Diphtheria Toxin Receptor,
Promoter Itgax, integrin alpha X, mouse, laboratory
Molecular Note The transgene contains sequence encoding DTR/GFP under the control of the mouse Itgax promoter. Two lines were creacted (line 11 and line 57) with 1 to 2 copies and 20 copies of the transgene, respectively. All CD8+ and CD8- dendritic cells in the spleen fluoresce and are DT sensitive. Immunohistochemical and flow cytometric analyses show that expression of the transgene is specific to splenic dendritic cells. [MGI Ref ID J:93488]

Supply Details

Standard SupplyRepository-Live. A collection of over 1000 strains maintained as live colonies. Individual colonies are sized to meet current customer demand. Delivery for orders of 10 mice or less ranges on average from one to eight weeks; mice are generally shipped between four to six weeks of age with a maximum shipping age of approximately nine weeks. Colony sizes do not generally support stringent age specifications for large volumes of mice; however custom orders and larger quantities of mice are easily arranged. Estimated ship dates for all orders provided within two business days following order placement.

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.
