Cell-type specific expression of the vasopressin gene analyzed by AAV mediated gene delivery of promoter deletion constructs into the rat SON in vivo.

Cell-type specific expression of the vasopressin gene analyzed by AAV mediated gene delivery of promoter deletion constructs into the rat SON in vivo.

The magnocellular neurons (MCNs) in the supraoptic nucleus (SON) of the hypothalamus selectively express either oxytocin (Oxt) or vasopressin (Avp) neuropeptide genes. In this paper we examine the cis-regulatory domains in the Avp gene promoter that are responsible for its cell-type specific express...
