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 ...

Cd‐metallothionein nephrotoxicity in inbred strains of mice

Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, 1992
Genetic differences in the acute hepatic and testicular toxicity of Cd occur among different strains of mice. However, it is not known whether genetic variation to the renal damage caused by Cd-metallothionein (CdMT) exists. Therefore, male mice of the C3H/HeJ, C57/Bl10, CBA/CA, and DBA/2J strains, previously shown to differ in hepatic and testicular ...

Biological significance, genetics and evolutionary origin of variability in behaviour within and between inbred strains of mice Mus musculus

, 1971
The biological significance, the origin and the genetical causation of differences in behaviour between inbred strains of mice have been studied. Three inbred strains with different origins were used, these were CPBs (Balb), CBA and C57Black. Exploratory

THE RESPONSE OF TWENTY-SEVEN INBRED STRAINS OF MICE TO DAILY DOSES OF WHOLE-BODY X-IRRADIATION.

Radiation Research, 1963
At various times throughout a 12-month period, males and females from 27 inbred strains were subjected to daily doses of 100 r of x rays until death. The strains with longer survival times had survival distributions with the mode skewed in the upward ...

Gene Trees and the Origins of Inbred Strains of Mice

Science, 1991
Extensive data on genetic divergence among 24 inbred strains of mice provide an opportunity to examine the concordance of gene trees and species trees, especially whether structured subsamples of loci give congruent estimates of phylogenetic relationships.

Sexual Behavior in Three Inbred Strains of Mice

, 1962
The sexual behavior of three inbred strains of mice was studied. Sixteen different behavioral measures were scored; twelve of these sixteen measures revealed statistically significant behavioral differences. The results were as follows: I.

Emotionality, exploratory behavior, and locomotion in aging inbred strains of mice.

Gerontologia, 1975
Two inbred strains of mice, C57BL/6J and DBA/2J, ranging in age from 2 to 38 months, were tested in an open field using the free exploration method. Scores were obtained for locomotor activity, exploratory behavior and emotionality.

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 ...

How pure are inbred strains of mice?

Immunology Today, 1982
As useful as immunologists find the inbred mouse, they cannot help but become disenchanted when they encounter genetically disparate mice in a purportedly inbred strain. Genetic impurity (allogenicity) can arise from a number of sources: incomplete inbreeding, mutation, inadvertent outcrossing, mislabeling, and epislatic and heterozygote selection.

Distribution of cadmium 109 and zinc 65 in mice of inbred strains.

Archives of Environmental Health An International Journal, 1969
Distribution of subcutaneously injected cadmium 109 (109Cd) and zinc 65 (65Zn) was studied in mature male mice of four different inbred strains. Mice of CBA/J and DBA/1J strains, which are known to be susceptible to cadmium-induced testicular necrobiosis,
