HOXB8 and Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome: As a demonstration of this system's power for studying the effects of disease mutations on microglia in vivo, we created stable, Adar1-mutated ER-Hoxb8 lines using CRISPR-Cas9 to study the intrinsic contribution of macrophages to Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS), an inherited interferonopathy that primarily affects the brain and immune system.
