Col1α2-Cre-mediated recombination occurs in various cell types due to Cre expression in epiblasts

Abstract The Cre-LoxP system has been commonly used for cell-specific genetic manipulation. However, many Cre strains exhibit excision activity in unexpected cell types or tissues. Therefore, it is important to identify the cell types in which recombination takes place. Fibroblasts are a cell type t...
