Development of a pituitary-specific cre line targeted to the Pit-1 lineage.

Genesis (New York, N.Y. : 2000) - 1 Jan 2008

Abstract excerpt

Tissue-specific expression of the Cre recombinase is a well-established genetic tool to analyze gene function in specific tissues and cell types. In this report, we describe the generation of a new transgenic line that expresses Cre under the control of the rat growth hormone releasing hormone receptor (rGhrhr) promoter. This promoter, chosen to target the anterior pituitary, drives cre-mediated recombination in...
