A Targeting scheme, mouse crossing, and establishment of cardiomyocyte (CM)-restricted conditional knockout (cKO) of MIAT in vivo. Top, Targeting scheme and mouse crossing. Bottom, Representative genotyping results of MIATfl/fl and αMHC-Cre mice. Target (tg) and control (ctrl) bands are shown. Neg.= negative control and Pos.= positive control. BâD QRT-PCR analyses of MIAT (B), miR-150-5p (a known direct target of MIAT; C), and Sprr1a (a known direct target of miR-150-5p; D) in left ventricles from adult MIATfl/fl or MIAT cKO (i.e., MIATfl/fl;αMHC-Cre) mice. Nâ=â3â4 per group. Data are presented as meanâ±âSEM. Unpaired 2-tailed t-test. *Pâ<â0.05 or **Pâ<â0.01 vs. MIATfl/fl mice.
