Characterization of an Osmr Conditional Knockout Mouse Model
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Oncostatin M (OSM) is a member of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) family of cytokines and has been found to have anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory properties in various cellular and disease contexts. OSM signals through two receptor complexes, one of which includes OSMRb. Here, we investigated OSM-OSMRb signaling in adult mouse hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) using the conditional Osmrfl/fl mouse model B6;129-Osmrtm1.1Nat/J. We crossed Osmrfl/fl mice to interferon-inducible Mx1-Cre, which is robustly induced in adult HSCs. From these mice, we isolated HSCs by flow cytometry, stimulated with or without recombinant OSM for 1 hour, and assessed gene expression changes in control versus Osmr knockout HSCs by RNA-seq. This data may be utilized to investigate OSMRb-dependent and -independent OSM signaling as well as the transcriptional effects of an IL-6 family cytokine on mouse HSCs to further define its anti-inflammatory versus pro-inflammatory properties.
