Impulsive choice in inbred strains of mice

Behavioural Processes, 2004
When humans or non-humans are given a choice between receiving a sooner-smaller (SS) reinforcer, or a later-larger (LL) reinforcer, the choice of a SS reinforcer represents impulsive choice whereas the choice of a LL reinforcer represents self-controlled choice.

Quiet mutations in inbred strains of mice

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2007
The year 2009 is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the first inbred strain of mouse, called DBA. During the last 100 years, inbred strains have proved their value for biomedical research and the number of such strains has mushroomed to over 450, each with different genotypic and phenotypic characteristics and useful for the study of disease and ...

Antibody Production in Inbred Strains of Mice

The Journal of Immunology, 1953
Summary Based on tests involving the use of 5 inbred strains of mice, evidence is presented which indicates that there is genetic variation in the ability of the mouse to produce demonstrable circulating antibody to either egg albumin or pneumococcus polysaccharide.

Infection of inbred strains of mice with Sendai virus

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1978
A comparative study of the consequences of Parainfluenza type 1 (Sendai) virus infection in inbred (C57B1/6J, C57Br, CBA, DBA) strains and a randomly bred (Swiss white) strain of mice showed significant mortality in the inbred strains but not in the randomly bred ones.

Atheromata in an inbred strain of mice

Journal of Atherosclerosis Research, 1969
Summary Male C57BL/6J inbred mice started on a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet at age 5–6 weeks survived well (100 % alive after 25 weeks) on the diet provided they were introduced to it gradually. All animals on the diet at least 5 weeks showed marked incorporation of fat into the subendothelial cells and in 7/8 the cells were swollen enough to be ...

Heterohemoantibodies in Inbred Strains of Mice

The Journal of Immunology, 1954
Summary Titers of immune hemoantibodies in mice of 10 inbred strains revealed characteristic patterns for each strain, with considerable variations between strains. The possible role of genetic, metabolic, and hormonal factors in relation to this difference in response of mice to immunization with hemoantigens was discussed.

Susceptibility to Cutaneous Anaphylaxis in Inbred Strains of Mice

The Journal of Immunology, 1974
Abstract Inbred mouse strains vary widely in their susceptibility to passive cutaneous anaphylaxis. The susceptibility to IgG1-induced reactions does not parallel susceptibility to IgE-induced reactions.

Development of a highly fecund inbred strain of mice

Mammalian Genome, 2004
A highly fecund inbred mouse line has been established from the Quackenbush Swiss (QS) outbred strain by full-sib inbreeding combined with selection for high number of pups born alive (NBA) and low interlitter interval (ILI). After more than 50 generations of inbreeding and selection, this line, named QSi5, has an NBA of 13.4 and an ILI of 29 days ...

Mating behaviour of two inbred strains of mice

Animal Behaviour, 1966
Summary Observations were made of the mating patterns of males from two inbred strains, ST/J and CBA/J, with females from both of these strains. Experiment I involved single males that were housed separately, while experiment II involved inter-strain pairs of males that were housed together. In three out of the four possible situations, the ST males

Toxicokinetics of trimethyltin in four inbred strains of mice

Toxicology Letters, 1998
Sixteen week old male AKR/J, Balb/cByJ, C57B1/6J and DBA/2J mice received single i.p. injections of trimethyltin (TMT). The toxic effects were weight loss, hyperexcitability, tremor, clonic-tonic convulsion, posterior paresis and death. The minimum toxic dose was 1.8 mg/kg, for the AKR strain and 2.3 mg/kg for the other strains.
