Gene Summary

Gene Symbol
Foxj1

Model Description

A GFP-CreERT2-polyA expression cassette was knocked into the Foxj1 gene start codon site.
Research Application:The expression pattern of GFP-CreERT2 was similar to the endogenous pattern of Foxj1 gene expression. Tamoxifen-induced Cre recombinase activity was detected in the lung and brain. The mouse model can be used for studying hydrocephalus.

Validation Data

Fig.1 CreERT2-mediated recombination in the lung of Foxj1CreERT2/+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mouse. 

TdTomato+ cells (red) were colocalized with GFP+ cells (green) in the bronchial epithelial cells of Foxj1CreERT2/+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mouse after tamoxifen treatment. Some leakiness were detected in the lung prior to tamoxifen exposure.

Fig.2 CreERT2-mediated recombination in the brain of Foxj1CreERT2/+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mouse. 

TdTomato(red) expression can be detected in the choroid plexus of Foxj1CreERT2/+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mouse after tamoxifen treatment. Some leakiness were detected in the choroid plexus prior to tamoxifen exposure. EGFP(green) expression can not be observed.

Fig.3 Detection of tdTomato (red) and GFP(green)in various tissues of Foxj1CreERT2/+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mice. CreERT2 mediated recombination can not be detected in the thymus, heart, lung, stomach, submandibular gland, brown fats, kidney, pancreas, intestine, colon, spleen, ovary, uterus, muscle or skin of female mice(12-13 weeks old).
