Product description: Disease model for psoriasis; in vivo study of human alpha3 and beta1 integrin transgene expression in skin.
Conditional: Yes
Conditional description: Conditional expression of integrins under involucrin promoter giving tissue-specific suprabasal epidermal expression.
Production details: Involucrin – integrin transgene expression constructs were injected into fertilized oocytes from F1 hybrid CBAxC57Bl/6 mice. Transgene-positive mice were back-crossed to generate individual founder lines. alpha3 founder line was crossed with beta1 founder line to generate alpha3beta1 line.
Additional notes: Mice present phenotype very similar to human psoriasis disease.
