Targeting strategy
Gene targeting strategy for B-hIL36R mice.
The chimeric IL1RL2 CDS was inserted after the 5’UTR of mouse Il1rl2 gene in B-hIL36R mice. The insertion disrupts the endogenous murine Il1rl2 gene, resulting in the absence of mouse transcripts.
mRNA expression analysis
Strain specific analysis of IL36R gene expression in wild type (WT) mice and B-hIL36R mice by RT-PCR.
Mouse Il1rl2 mRNA was detectable only in lung of WT mice (+/+). Human IL1RL2 mRNA was detectable only in homozygous B-hIL36R mice (H/H) but not in WT mice (+/+).
mRNA expression profile of IL36R
Quantitative PCR analysis of IL36R mRNA expression in wild-type (WT) mice and B-hIL36R mice. Total RNA was isolated from heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, brain, thymus, lymph node, uterus, ovary, testis, thyroid, skin, muscle, esophagus and small intestine of WT mice and homozygous B-hIL36R mice (n=3, 8 week-old), qPCR method was used to detect the RNA expression of IL36R. The results showed that the abundance of IL36R mRNA in spleen, lung, brain and thymus of B-hIL36R mice were significantly lower than that in WT mice, and the expression level of IL36R mRNA in other tissues of B-hIL36R mice were slightly lower than that in wild mice. The mean and standard deviation from triplicate samples are indicated.
IHC analysis of IL36R expression
Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis of IL36R expression in homozygous B-hIL36R mice.
The small intestine and skin were collected from WT and homozygous B-hIL36R mice (H/H) that have established psoriasis models and prepared for optical coherence tomography (OCT). The tissues were analyzed by IHC with anti-IL36R antibody. (A), IL36R expression in the small intestine. (B), IL36R expression in the skin. Mouse IL36R was detectable in WT mice. Human IL36R was detectable in homozygous B-hIL36R mice due to the cross-reactivity of antibodies. The arrow indicates tissue cells with positive IL36R staining (brown).

Representative FACS plots. Single live cells were gated for CD45 population and used for further analysis as indicated here. B. Results of FACS analysis. Percent of T cells, B cells, NK cells, dendritic cells, granulocytes, monocytes and macrophages in homozygous B-hIL36R mice were similar to those in the C57BL/6 mice, demonstrating that introduction of hIL36R in place of its mouse counterpart does not change the overall development, differentiation or distribution of these cell types in spleen. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM.
