主 题:lung homeostasis capillary
摘 要:It has been reported recently that there are two distinct subpopulations of capillary endothelial cells in the mammalian lungs:gCap(general capillary)and aCap(aerocyte).They are identified by two unique markers,respectively:plasmalemmal vesicle-associated protein(PLVAP)and carbonic anhydrase IV(CAR4).Here,we report two novel knock-in mouse lines Plvap-CreER and Car4-CreER,which genetically target gCap and aCap,*** by tamoxifen,the Plvap-CreER and Car4-CreER alleles mediate specific and efficient Cre-loxP recombinations in PLVAP+gCap and CAR4+aCap,respectively,in the *** two mouse lines are useful genetic tools to investigate cell fates and functions of PLVAP+and CAR4+cells in lung homeostasis,injury and repair.
