A loxP-flanked neomycin cassette blocks expression of the rat Trpv1 (transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1) gene driven by the Gt(ROSA)26Sor gene in this targeted mutation/knock-in strain. Upon crossing to a tissue-specific Cre-expressing strain, TRPV1 and enhanced cyan fluorescent protein (ECFP) is expressed from the ROSA locus. Cells expressing TRPV1 are sensitive to capsaicin and similar chemical agonists. Treatment of mice or cells that have undergone Cre excision to remove the neomycin cassette can induce strong inward currents, trigger action potentials and activate stereotyped behaviors, allowing cell-type specific chemical genetic control of neuronal activity in vitro and in vivo. Mice that are homozygous for the floxed allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities.When bred to a strain with widespread expression of Cre recombinase (see Stock No. 002858 for example), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of neuronal activity.
Development
A targeting vector was used to insert a loxP-flanked neomycin cassette, rat Trpv1 (transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1) cDNA, and IRES-ECFP sequence into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor gene. The mutation was created in 129P2/OlaHsd-derived E14 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into recipient blastocysts. The resulting chimeric animals were backcrossed to C57BL/6 three times by the donating laboratory.

involves: 129P2/OlaHsd * C57BL/6 (conditional)
- behavior/neurological phenotype
- circling (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- capsaicin infusion after focal induction of Trpv1 expression in subsets of striatal neurons by injection of a lentiviral-cre vector recapitulates contralateral circling behavior at one week post-injection; circling subsides within 15 minutes of capsaicin application
- ipsilateral circling is not observed after capsaicin infusion
- hearing/vestibular/ear phenotype
- circling (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- capsaicin infusion after focal induction of Trpv1 expression in subsets of striatal neurons by injection of a lentiviral-cre vector recapitulates contralateral circling behavior at one week post-injection; circling subsides within 15 minutes of capsaicin application

involves: 129P2/OlaHsd * C57BL/6 * CBA (conditional)
- behavior/neurological phenotype
- *normal* behavior/neurological phenotype (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- capsaicin infusion into striatum does not affect exploratory or motor behavior in Cre-activated mutants or controls
- circling (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- infusion of capsaicin into striatum of results in stereotyped contralateral circling behavior within 5 minutes of delivery, while control mice without activation of Trpv1 show no effect
- nervous system phenotype
- abnormal single cell response (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- in layer 5 cortical slices, capsaicin induces action potentials while cells from Cre-negative animals show no response
- neurons in slices show dose-dependent depolarizing currents in response to capsaicin applied to the bath
- capsaicin applied acutely to single cells causes reproducible bursts of action potentials with increases in firing rate; frequency of firing is dependent on duration and concentration of capsaicin application
- increased susceptibility to neuronal excitotoxicity (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- infusion of high doses of capsaicin (5-10 um) into striatum results in dose-dependent excitotoxicity in neuronal cultures
- at doses sufficient to induce circling, no cell death is observed
- hearing/vestibular/ear phenotype
- circling (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- infusion of capsaicin into striatum of results in stereotyped contralateral circling behavior within 5 minutes of delivery, while control mice without activation of Trpv1 show no effect
- homeostasis/metabolism phenotype
- increased susceptibility to neuronal excitotoxicity (MGI Ref ID J:136582)
- infusion of high doses of capsaicin (5-10 um) into striatum results in dose-dependent excitotoxicity in neuronal cultures
