Establishment of Crif1 knockout model in vitro Primary keratinocytes cultured from Crif1 fl/fl mice were transduced with an adenovirus expressing CreERT (5 MOI) for 6 hrs. Cells were replenished, treated with 4-OHT and then cultured for a further 2 days. The expression of Crif1 was effectively reduced by 4-OHT treatment only in Crif1 fl/fl cells.

Effect of Crif1 on skin barrier in embryonic development Toluidine blue staining was performed to examine the barrier defect in embryonic development. (embryonic day18.5) Crif1 cKO embryos showed normally developed epidermis.
