Abstract
Mouse lines with tetracycline-controlled gene expression in specific neuronal populations provide valuable tools for studying their development, function, connectivity, and pathology in vivo. Our initial goal was to generate a mouse model that could express amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated genes specifically in spinal cord motor neurons under the control of the HB9 promoter. However, HB9-tTA mice unexpectedly direct target gene expression in a small subset of dorsal horn neurons. These mice represent a new tool for scientists who are interested in studying these spinal cord neurons.
