In vivo genetic labeling of primary cilia in developing astrocytes.

Rachel M. Bear, Claire Wei, Tamara Caspary

The paper develops and evaluates genetic models to label astrocyte cilia in the developing prefrontal cortex using Aldh1l1-CreERT2 and cilia reporters, showing that tamoxifen dosage affects labeling efficiency.
