Adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9) has become a popular tool for gene transfer because of its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and efficiently transduce genetic material into a variety of cell types. The study utilized GRR (Green-to-Red Reporter) mouse embryos, in which the expression of iCre results in the disappearance of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) expression and the detection of Discosoma sp. Red Fluorescent Protein (DsRed) expression by intraplacental injection. Our results demonstrate that AAV9-CMV-iCre can transduce multiple organs in embryos at developmental stages E9.5–E11.5, including the liver, heart, brain, thymus, and intestine. These findings suggest that intraplacental injection of AAV9-CMV-iCre is a viable method for the widespread transduction of GRR mouse embryos.
