Inter-individual Variability for High Fat Diet Consumption in Inbred C57BL/6 Mice [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2019
Since inbred C57BL/6 mice are known to show inter-individual phenotypic variability for some traits, we tested the hypothesis that inbred C57BL/6 mice display a different tendency to consume a high fat (HF) diet.

Shortcoming of the Mouse Model of Postoperative Ileus: Small Intestinal Lengths Have Similar Variations in In- and Outbred Mice and Cannot Be Predicted by Allometric Parameters [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background/Objectives: The mouse model of postoperative ileus separates the gastrointestinal tract into 15 sections, 10 of which are in the small intestine, to measure intestinal transit time.

Deletion of the alpha-synuclein locus in a subpopulation of C57BL/6J inbred mice [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2001
Background The presynaptic protein α-synuclein is involved in a range of neurodegenerative diseases. Here we analyze potential compensatory mechanisms in α-synuclein null mutant mice.

Mixed genetic background better recapitulates developmental and psychiatric phenotypes and heterogeneity than inbred C57BL/6J mice [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Preclinical models of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric conditions often rely on inbred mouse strains like C57BL/6J (B6), which exhibit limited genetic and behavioral variability.

A diversity outbred F1 mouse model identifies host-intrinsic genetic regulators of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2022
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have improved outcomes for a variety of malignancies; however, many patients fail to benefit. While tumor-intrinsic mechanisms are likely involved in therapy resistance, it is unclear to what extent host genetic ...

Chronobiology of alcohol: Studies in C57BL/6J and DBA/2J inbred mice [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiology & Behavior, 2013
Human alcoholics display dramatic disruptions of circadian rhythms that may contribute to the maintenance of excessive drinking, thus creating a vicious cycle. While clinical studies cannot establish direct causal mechanisms, recent animal experiments have revealed bidirectional interactions between circadian rhythms and ethanol intake, suggesting that

Neuroimaging Evidence of Major Morpho-Anatomical and Functional Abnormalities in the BTBR T+TF/J Mouse Model of Autism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BTBR T+tf/J (BTBR) mice display prominent behavioural deficits analogous to the defining symptoms of autism, a feature that has prompted a widespread use of the model in preclinical autism research.

Outbred CD1 mice are as suitable as inbred C57BL/6J mice in performing social tasks [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 2017
Inbred mouse strains have been used preferentially for behavioral testing over outbred counterparts, even though outbred mice reflect the genetic diversity in the human population better. Here, we compare the sociability of widely available outbred CD1 mice with the commonly used inbred C57BL/6J (C57) mice in the one-chamber social interaction test and

Genetic variability affects the skeletal response to immobilization in founder strains of the diversity outbred mouse population

open access: yesBone Reports, 2021
Mechanical unloading decreases bone volume and strength. In humans and mice, bone mineral density is highly heritable, and in mice the response to changes in loading varies with genetic background.

Generation of live offspring from vitrified mouse oocytes of C57BL/6J strain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In mammals, unfertilized oocytes are one of the most available stages for cryopreservation because the cryopreserved oocytes can be used for assisted reproductive technologies, including in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection ...
