Blood First Edition Paper, prepublished online May 4, 2006; DOI 10.1182/blood-2005-12-012104
Discussion The aim of this study was to generate a conditional mouse model which recapitulates the
unique spatio-temporal and lineage-restricted expression pattern of the SCL gene. In
particular, we wished to generate a mouse line allowing reversible targeting of transgene
expression to HSCs and blood progenitors. Such a conditional SCL effector mouse would be
an invaluable experimental tool for approaching fundamental issues concerning normal and
malignant hematopoiesis.
The basic-helix-loop helix transcription factor SCL is one of the very few genes known to be
expressed both in embryonic and adult HSCs4,5. This unique expression pattern suggests that
SCL regulatory elements could be used to direct conditional expression to HSCs and blood
cell progenitors. Radomska and colleagues had previously used the human CD34 locus to
direct tetracycline-controlled expression of heterologous transgenes to HSCs and early
progenitors36. In this mouse inducible transgene expression was reported for endothelial and
early blood cell progenitors. In a similar fashion elements from the 3’ SCL enhancer were
utilized to direct DOX-inducible expression of transgenes to hematopoietic tissues and HSCs 41. However, in this study only lung, intestine and hematopoietic organs were analysed for
DOX-dependant transgene induction. For this reason it is not clear to which extent conditional
expression was exclusively restricted to hematopoietic tissues and the lung but was absent
from other organs. Interestingly, when this effector mouse was used to express the BCR-ABL
oncogene a CML-like disease was induced41. However, since overexpression of SCL under
the control of the 3’ SCL enhancer led only to a partial rescue of the lethal SCL knock-out
phenotype, it is to be assumed that the 3’ enhancer is not sufficient for recapitulating the
endogenous SCL expression pattern23. Here, we report the generation of a tTA-2S knock-in
mouse line which mirrors the known expression pattern of SCL in the adult.
Transcriptional regulation of the murine SCL gene has been extensively studied in vitro and
in vivo12-23,56. Based on this information we reasoned that inserting the tTA-2S coding
sequence into exon V of the SCL locus would ensure the conservation of critical regulatory
elements and result in a faithful recapitulation of the endogenous SCL expression pattern by
tTA-2S. The capacity and tissue-specificity of the SCL-tTA-2S effector mouse line was tested
using luciferase, lacZ and EGFP tetracycline-dependant reporter mice. In a first series of
experiments the LC-1 luciferase responder line50 was used to determine in which organs the
expression of the luciferase transgene was induced. Since luciferase is known to be a very
sensitive reporter very low levels of transgene induction should be detectable. These
experiments demonstrated high and strictly DOX-dependant transgene induction in bone
