Cardiac specific expression of the green fluorescent protein during early murine embryonic development
4 Dec 1998
Abstract excerpt
We demonstrate the establishment of transgenic mice, where the expression of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) is under control of the human cardiac alpha-actin promoter. These mice display cardiac specific GFP expression already during early embryonic development. Prominent GFP fluorescence was observed at the earliest stage of the murine heart anlage (E8). Cardiomyocytes of different developmental stages...
