The purpose of this project was to generate a mouse line containing a heart-specific deletion of genes encoding JNK-1 and -2, which may map to insulin-resistance, to create a model for studying the effects of type II diabetes on cardiomyocytes. The Cre/loxP recombination system was used in a C57BL/6 mouse, with Cre under the control of a MHC promoter to drive expression in cardiomyocytes. PCR analysis showed the creation of 3 Cre-positive mice for JNK1, and 3 for JNK2, providing mice which can be used to determine the potential role of JNK1 and JNK2 in insulin-resistance in heart cells
