Fig. 1 CreERT2-mediated recombination in the pancreas of Acta2CreERT2 /+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mouse. TdTomato(red) expression can be detected in the vascular smooth muscle cells of Acta2 CreERT2 /+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mouse after tamoxifen treatment. Some leakiness were detected prior to tamoxifen exposure.

Fig. 2 Detection of tdTomato(red) in various tissues of Acta2CreERT2/+; Rosa26tdTomato/+ mice. CreERT2 mediated recombination can be detected in the pancreas, kidney, brain, heart, lung, liver, thymus, submandibular gland, brown fat, ovary, muscle, thymus, spleen, large intestine and small intestine. Leakiness were detected in the above tissues prior to tamoxifen exposure. Tdtomato expression can not be observed in the pituitary gland.

Tamoxifen诱导Cre-ERT2小鼠 使用指南
Cre-ERT2在无Tamoxifen诱导的情况下,在细胞质内处于无活性状态;当Tamoxifen诱导后,Tamoxifen的代谢产物4-OHT(雌激素类似物)与ERT结合,可使Cre-ERT2进核发挥Cre重组酶活性。
