Tmem119-EGFP and Tmem119-CreERT2 transgenic mice for labeling and manipulating microglia

2019-05-02

Abstract excerpt

Microglia are specialized brain-resident macrophages with important functions in health and disease. To improve our understanding of these cells, the research community needs genetic tools to identify and control them in a manner that distinguishes them from closely related cell-types. We have targeted the recently discovered microglia-specific Tmem119 gene to generate knock-in mice expressing EGFP (JAX#031823) o...
