Humanized Mouse Model of Cooley's Anemia

Abstract: A novel humanized mouse model of Cooley's Anemia (CA) was generated by targeted gene replacement in embryonic stem (ES) cells. Because the mouse does not have a true fetal hemoglobin, a delayed switching human ␥ to ␤ 0 globin gene cassette (␥␤ 0 ) was inserted directly into the murine ␤ globin locus replacing both adult mouse ␤ globin genes. The inserted human ␤ 0 globin allele has a mutation in the splice donor site that produces the same aberrant transcripts in mice as described in human cells. No functional… Show more

“…Similarly, knock-in of this delayed-switching ␥␤ S cassette into the mouse ␤-globin locus results in the postnatal survival of the first humanized knock-in model of sickle cell anemia (50). Even in the absence of a functional ␤-globin gene, humanized ␥␤ 0 knock-in mice can survive to birth solely by synthesizing HbF (22). Interestingly, incorporation of hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) mutations into the ␥-globin promoter furthers extends the postnatal life of these humanized Cooley's anemia mouse models (21,23).…”

“…Heterozygous ␥␤ A knock-in mice were bred to cytomegalovirus (CMV)-Cre transgenic mice (30) to delete their loxP-flanked hygromycin marker gene. Human ␣2␣1-globin knock-in mice (22,23; T. M. Ryan, unpublished data) were bred to ␥␤ A knock-in mice to produce doubly heterozygous knock-in mice, which were interbred to obtain homozygous ␣2␣1/␣2␣1 ␥␤ A /␥␤ A knock-in mice (humanized mice) for analysis.…”
