Targeting Neural Genes in Mouse Embryos

Description

In utero electroporation is a method for delivering genetic material into mouse embryos while they are still developing in the uterus. It uses brief electrical pulses to open temporary pores in cell membranes. This lets researchers place material into cells in a targeted way and study neural development.

Transcript

In utero elektroporatie is een cruciale techniek voor het bestuderen van de moleculaire mechanismen die de neuro-ontwikkeling sturen. Door DNA te injecteren om de genexpressie in specifieke regio's van de ontwikkelende hersenen van knaagdieren te wijzigen, kunnen onderzoekers de proliferatie, differentiatie, migratie...
