Functional dissection of lupus susceptibility loci on the New Zealand black mouse chromosome 1: evidence for independent genetic loci affecting T and B cell activation.
In previous work, we demonstrated linkage between a broad region on New Zealand Black (NZB) chromosome 1 and increased costimulatory molecule expression on B cells and autoantibody production. In this study, we produced C57BL/6 congenic mice with homozygous NZB chromosome 1 intervals of differing lengths. We show that both B6.NZBc1(35-106) (numbers denote chromosomal interval length) and B6.NZB...
متن کاملGenetic dissection of the murine lupus susceptibility locus Sle2: contributions to increased peritoneal B-1a cells and lupus nephritis map to different loci.
Lupus pathogenesis in the NZM2410 mouse model results from the expression of multiple interacting susceptibility loci. Sle2 on chromosome 4 was significantly linked to glomerulonephritis in a linkage analysis of a NZM2410 x B6 cross. Yet, Sle2 expression alone on a C57BL/6 background did not result in any clinical manifestation, but in an abnormal B cell development, including the accumulation ...
متن کاملFunctional interplay between intrinsic B and T cell defects leads to amplification of autoimmune disease in New Zealand black chromosome 1 congenic mice.
Genetic loci on New Zealand Black (NZB) chromosome 1 play an important role in the development of lupus-like autoimmune disease. We have shown previously that C57BL/6 mice with an introgressed NZB chromosome 1 interval extending from approximately 35 to 106 cM have significantly more severe autoimmunity than mice with a shorter interval extending from approximately 82 to 106 cM. Comparison of t...
متن کاملGenetic dissection of systemic lupus erythematosus pathogenesis: evidence for functional expression of Sle3/5 by non-T cells.
On the non-autoimmune C57BL/6 (B6) background, the chromosome 7-derived lupus susceptibility loci Sle3 and Sle5 have been shown to mediate an elevated CD4:CD8 ratio with an increase in activated CD4(+) T cells, decreased susceptibility to apoptosis, and a break in humoral tolerance. Development of subcongenic strains has subsequently shown that the elevated CD4:CD8 ratio is due to Sle3 but that...
متن کاملNew loci from New Zealand Black and New Zealand White mice on chromosomes 4 and 12 contribute to lupus-like disease in the context of BALB/c.
New Zealand Black (NZB) and New Zealand White (NZW) mice are genetically predisposed to a lupus-like autoimmune syndrome. To further define the loci linked to disease traits in NZB and NZW mice in the context of the BALB/c genetic background, linkage analyses were conducted in two crosses: (NZW x BALB/c.H2(z))F(1) x NZB and (NZB x BALB/c)F(2). Novel loci linked to autoantibody production and gl...
