Stock Number
RRRC#: 659
Age at Injection
3-4 months
Time After Injection
Checked with fiber photometry from 1 to 5 weeks after injection
Detection Method
Immunohistochemistry
Assay & Results
Noradrenergic cells of the locus coeruleus. No successful expression.
Functional Testing
Attempted to use fiber photometry to detect -- no signal.
Other Information
No toxicity, but saw no expression.
Tips & Comments
I tested multiple caspids and promoters -- AAV1 and AAV9 don't seem to express well in rat locus coeruleus, but AAV5 does okay. CAG is required for expression.
