Evaluating Tissue-Specific Recombination in a Pdgfrα-CreERT2 Transgenic Mouse Line.
In the central nervous system (CNS) platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRα) is expressed exclusively by oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs), making the Pdgfrα promoter an ideal tool for directing transgene expression in this cell type. Two Pdgfrα-CreERT2 mouse lines have been gene...
