Combinations of nondiabetic parental genomes elicit impaired glucose tolerance in mouse SMXA recombinant inbred strains.
Type 2 diabetes in humans is not a single gene disorder but a multifactorial disease caused by the interaction of multiple genes and environmental factors. Recombinant inbred (RI) strains are a powerful tool for analyzing not only single genetic traits but also multifactorial genetic traits. By using the SMXA RI mice, we genetically dissected diabetes-related traits (BMI, nonfasting blood gluco...
متن کاملIntraocular pressure in inbred mouse strains.
PURPOSE To develop a protocol to measure the intraocular pressure (IOP) of living mice and to determine the IOP of genetically different mouse strains. METHODS Eyes of anesthetized animals were cannulated with a very fine fluid-filled glass microneedle. The microneedle was connected to a pressure transducer, and the pressure signal was analyzed with a computer system. Intraocular pressures of...
متن کاملDietary obesity in nine inbred mouse strains.
The effect of 7 wk consumption of a diet containing 32.6% of kilocalories as fat [condensed milk (CM) diet] on body composition and energy intake was evaluated in nine strains of inbred mice (AKR/J, C57L/J, A/J, C3H/HeJ, DBA/2J, C57BL/6J, SJL/J, I/STN, and SWR/J). Control animals were fed a high-carbohydrate diet containing 11.6% of energy as fat (Purina Rodent Chow diet). Relative to Chow diet...
متن کاملOrigin of inbred NZ mouse strains.
Inbreeding of mice was begun in 1948 in our labora tories in response to the request of Dr. Franz Bielschow sky, who recognized the need for genetically and nutri tionally uniform animals for cancer research. The resulting strains of inbred NZ mice proved useful for research in immunology, biochemistry, and other fields, and they have been widely distributed. We often have inquiries from invest...
متن کاملQTL mapping for genetic determinants of lipoprotein cholesterol levels in combined crosses of inbred mouse strains.
To identify additional loci that influence lipoprotein cholesterol levels, we performed quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping in offspring of PERA/EiJxI/LnJ and PERA/EiJxDBA/2J intercrosses and in a combined data set from both crosses after 8 weeks of consumption of a high fat-diet. Most QTLs identified were concordant with homologous chromosomal regions that were associated with lipoprotein l...
