Hydrodynamic delivery of Cre protein to lineage-mark or time-stamp mouse hepatocytes in situ.
Cre-responsive fluorescent marker alleles are powerful tools for cell lineage tracing in mice; however their utility is limited by regulation of Cre activity. When targeting hepatocytes, hydrodynamic delivery of a Cre-expression plasmid can convert Cre-responsive alleles without inducing the intrace...
