ISuRe-HadCre is an essential tool for effective conditional genetics

ABSTRACT: Methods to modify gene function in mice with high spatiotemporal resolution have revolutionized biomedical research, with Cre-loxP technology remaining the most widely used. We previously generated the iSuRe-Cre mouse allele, a dual Cre-reporter line that, by permanently expressing Cre in reporter-expressing cells, provides certainty that these cells recombine other floxed alleles. Here we report the generation, validation, and utility of a second-generation allele, iSuRe-HadCre. In contrast to its predecessor, the new allele is targeted to the ubiquitously expressed Rosa26 locus, shows no leakiness, is significantly brighter and more sensitive to CreERT2 activity, and has no Cre-related toxicity. iSuRe-HadCre achieves this through a novel inbuilt recombinase genetic switch that ensures that cells expressing a fluorescent reporter have transient, but sufficient, expression of Cre. This new tool will be essential for the precise, efficient, and trustworthy analysis of gene function in single cells or entire tissues of mice.

scRNAseq of mouse colorectal organoids in FOLFIRI treatment

Project description:The aim of the experiment is to elucidate changes in tumor heterogeneity upon chemotherapy treatment. The experiment includes non-treated samples, samples right after chemotherapy treatment (FOLFIRI) and organoids recovered from FOLFIRI. It was conducted in two different genetic backgrounds, AKP (Apc KO, KrasG12D and P53 KO) and APS (Apc KO, P53 and Smad4KO). In addition to that, the organoids carry an inducible Cre-ERT2 knock-in allele in the mex3a locus. Upon 4-OH-Tamoxifen induction, Mex3a cells will recombine the tracing allele stop-TdTomato, enabling the tracing of this subpopulation. To understand the fate of the traced cells, samples right after chemotherapy and in the recovery setting were sorted based on their tomato expression. This enables a single cell tracing experiment.

Comparison of small RNA profiling in sperm susceptible or not susceptible to epigenetic silencing of the LoxP site

Project description:During our attempt to engineer a conditional Kdm1a knockout using germline expressed Vasa-Cre transgene, we observed that the efficiency of LoxP recombination is dramatically reduced after the first recombination event occurs. This is due to a transvection event in which the recombination of one allele in one generation, blocks the recombination of the other allele in the following generation. Interestingly, this inhibition can be relieved by introducing an additional cross to a wildtype mouse between the first and the second Kdm1a recombination event. The recombination inhibition is therefore the result of epigenetic silencing that is erased once spermatogenesis is allowed to happen in the absence of Vasa-Cre. After excluding other possibilities, we considered the hyphotesis that a diffusible molecule targeting the LoxP site that could be deposited in sperm following the first Cre recombination event (original cross). This molecule should not be present anymore when the sperm is collected after the additional cross to wildtype (extra cross). To test whether this diffusible molecule could be a small RNA, we produced and compared small RNA libraries prepared from sperm derived from the original cross and from the extra cross. These samples are genetically identical but differ in their parental history as well as in the ability to recombine the second floxed Kdm1a allele in the following generation. The comparison aimed at finding potential small RNAs mapping to or close to the loxP site present only, or more abundantly, in the original cross. Unfortunately, we were not able to identify such small RNAs and we also could not find any consistent difference in small RNA profiles among the different samples. We therefore concluded that the transvection event is not connected to a diffusible small RNA accumulated in sperm.

Expression data of wild type and C-DGCR8 KO cones at different timepoints [RNA-seq]

Project description:We have analyzed gene expression in cone photoreceptors isolated from wild type and C-DGCR8 (DiGeorge Syndrome Critical Region Gene 8) KO mice at five different time points to get a mechanistic inside into the altered molecular pathways after microRNAs depletion. Cones were isolated by FACS from wild type and C-DGCR8 KO mice expressing Cre recombinase postnatally specifically in cones (D4-Cre) and bearing conditional null Dgcr8 allele. Experiments were performed in duplicates from different time points (P30, P40, P50, P60, and P90). Total RNA was extracted and next-generation RNA sequencing was performed.

Comparative microarray analysis of NaV1.8-expressing DRG neurons and cold-sensitive non-NaV1.8-expressing DRG neurons

Project description:The vast majority of cold sensitive DRG neurons from mice do not express the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.8. Therefore, we aimed to compare the molecular profiles of NaV1.8 and non-NaV1.8-expressing neurons using microarray analysis. Fluorescent activated cell sorting was performed at 4 degrees centigrade on acutely dissociated DRG neurons from mice expressing NaV1.8-Cre, Pirt-GCaMP3 and a Cre-dependent global reporter (td tomato). NaV1.8-expressing neurons were sorted based on their reporter fluorescence (td tomato; red) and putative cold sensing neurons were sorted based on their GCaMP3 fluorescence at 4 degrees centigrade and absence of Cre-dependent reporter fluorescence. A total of three mice were used (samples one, two and three) with GCaMP3 only and NaV1.8-expressing neurons forming two relative populations within each sample (eg. GC3 one is the experimental counterpart of Tom one).

Precise integration of inducible transcriptional elements (PrIITE) enables absolute control of inducible gene expression.

Project description:Tetracycline-based inducible systems provide powerful methods for functional studies where gene expression can be controlled. However, the lack of tight control of the inducible system, leading to leakiness and adverse effects caused by undesirable tetracycline dosage requirements, has proven to be a limitation. Here we report that the combined use of genome editing tools and last generation Tet-On systems can resolve these issues. Our principle is based on precise integration of inducible transcriptional elements (coined PrIITE) targeted to; 1) exons of an endogenous gene of interest (GOI) and 2) a safe harbor locus. Using PrIITE cells harboring a GFP reporter or CDX2 transcription factor, we demonstrate discrete inducibility of gene expression with complete abrogation of leakiness. CDX2 PrIITE cells generated by this approach uncovered novel CDX2 downstream effector genes. Our results provide a strategy for characterization of dose-dependent effector functions of essential genes that require absence of endogenous gene expression.

Gene expression analysis of a podocyte specific PTIP deletion in mouse glomerular preparations at 1 month of age

Project description:Glomerular RNA comparison between wild-type and podocyte specific deletion of the PTIP gene in 1 month old kidneys. The PTIP gene was deleted using a floxed allele and a Podocin-Cre driver strain. These mice develop protein urea by 3 months of age. This study was designed to find gene expression differences prior to the onset of the phenotype. A ptip floxed allele was crossed into the Podocin-Cre expressing strain to generate ptip fl/fl homozygous mice or ptip fl/- transheterozygous mice with or without the Cre expressing transgene. Animals were genotyped and assigend into two groups: Mutants with PTIP deletion (PTIP-) with the genotype ptip fl/fl:Pod-Cre or ptip fl/-:Pod-Cre or control mice (PTIP+) with either ptip fl/fl or ptip fl/-. Note that the floxed allele produced normal levels of wild-type PTIP protein. Kidneys were excised at 1 month of age. Glomeruli enriched fractions were generated by sieving of the tissue homogenates. RNA was prepared from glomerular enriched fractions.

Yap/Taz negatively regulate bone angiogenesis and osteogenesis

Project description:In long bone, the metaphyseal region is less hypoxic than the bone marrow (bone shaft). To study the regional differences of vasculatures, we isolated endothelial cells (ECs) expressing membrane-anchored mTomato protein and nuclear H2B-GFP from Cdh5-mT/nG transgenic reporter femoral metaphysis and diaphyseal bone marrow cavity by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) at high purity for RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Next, to study the Hippo signaling in bone ECs, we performed RNA-seq analysis of freshly isolated bone ECs from Cdh5Cre-ERT2-positive Yap1/Taz double floxed or Cdh5Cre-ERT2-positive Lats2 floxed allele and their Cre-negative corresponding littermate controls.

c-kitCre Knock-ins Fail to Identify, Effectively Recombine and Fate-Map Cardiac Stem Cells

Project description:A recent cell-fate mapping study by Van Berlo et al. using a Cre knock-in (KI) into the c-kit locus, and two other studies using a similar genetic approach to track the fate of Cardiac Stem/progenitor Cells (CSCs) concluded that c-kitpos cells only negligibly generate cardiomyocytes. These papers questioned our findings that tissue-specific c-kitposCSCs are endogenous regenerative agents necessary and sufficient for cardiomyocyte regeneration/replenishment after injury. We consider answering whether the c-kitCre-KI approach properly identifies and fate-maps c-kitposCSCs and/or whether c-kitCre-KI-insertion affects CSC biology and cardiomyogenic potential. To test this hypothesis, we crossed the the c-kitCre-KI mouse to different reporter mouse models. We concluded that the c-kitCre-KI approach neither identifies nor fate-tracks the c-kitposCSCs, because c-kit expression level in these cells is too low to produce enough Cre to effectively recombine the floxed marker and permanently tag the CSC and their progeny.
