Unspecific DNA recombination in AdipoqCre-ERT2 – mediated knockout approaches in transgenic mice is sex-, age- and genotype-dependent

Due to the epidemic rise of obesity prevalence, adipose tissue (AT) research is of major interest. Our aim was to study specificity of the most-common Cre/loxP approach for inducible gene manipulation of AT in mice (AdipoqCre-ERT2). We used mice with tamoxifen-sensitive Cre recombinase controlled by...
