Protocol to create a murine subcutaneous air pouch for the study of monosodium urate crystal-induced gout
Summary: Monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposition in articular joints and bursal tissue causes acute joint inflammation, which is a hallmark of gout. Here, we describe the steps necessary to create a subcutaneous air pouch on the back of mice that resembles this bursa-like space with a synovial lin...
