Information from provider

ProviderTaina Pihlajaniemi
Provider affiliationFaculty of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine, University of Oulu
Genetic informationExon 1 of Col18a1 was deleted to form a promoter 1 (P1)-specific knockout in which the short collagen XVIII isoform is inactivated while the medium and long collagen XVIII isoforms are expressed.
Phenotypic informationHomozygous:
Phenotypic characterization of the Col18a1-P1 FVB/N mice has not been done. Breast cancer growth and metastasis is significantly reduced in the Col18a1-P1 FVB/N null mice crossed with the MMTV-PyMT (Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul, MGI:2679595) transgenic model. The FVB/N background might be useful e.g. in some cancer models such as DMBA-TPA induced skin carcinogenesis which does not work well in the C57BL/6 background, or with the MMVT-PyMT model as we have used.

Heterozygous:
Heterozygous mice are normal.
Breeding historyGene targeting was performed in 129/Sv embryonic stem cells and the resulting mice were backcrossed at least 10 times to C57BL/6JOlaHsd background and further to FVB/NCrl background for 8 generations.

Order

Availabilities

Requesting frozen sperm or embryos is generally advisable wherever possible, in order to minimise the shipment of live mice.

  • Frozen sperm. Delivered in 4 weeks (after paperwork in place). €1740*
  • Rederivation of mice from frozen stock, delivery time available upon request . €3880*

Due to the dynamic nature of our processes strain availability may change at short notice. The local repository manager will advise you in these circumstances.

* In addition users have to cover all the shipping costs (including the cost for returning dry-shippers, where applicable).
