Analysis of hepatic nonhistone chromosomal protein (NHCP) expression in male mice from progenitor strains (C3H/HeN, C57BL/6N), their F1 hybrid (B6C3), and seven recombinant inbred strains (RIs) (B6N×C3N) by high-resolution two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) detected 16 NHCPs whose expression in RIs could be correlated to each other and with strain distribution patterns (SDP) of 20 genetic markers differing in the progenitors. Of the 400+ NHCP spots detected in RI 2D-PAGE maps, 172 were common to progenitors and all RIs. There was a characteristic absence of five NHCPs in one RI, Y. Ten C3H-specific and six C57-specific NHCP inherited in B6C3 also appeared in RIs. The SDP of C3H-specific NHCP 2 matched the SDP of beta-glucuronidase on chromosome 5 and carbonic anhydrase on chromosome 3, and C57-specific NHCP 5 SDP corresponded to that for nonagouti trait on chromosome 2. These 16 NHCP genetic marker inheritance differences detected in RIs add to the 23 previously established genetic marker differences between the progenitors.This study was supported in part by funds from NIH Grants CA 33305 and CA 16672 and Exxon Corporation, USA. 相似文献

We have applied the restriction landmark genomic scanning (RLGS) method to the SMXA recombinant inbred (RI) mouse strain
set to reveal its detailed genetic profile. A total of 663 polymorphic RLGS spot loci were identified, 576 of which were assigned
to chromosomes. Strain distribution patterns (SDPs) at 55 microsatellite marker loci were also obtained. As a result, the
total number of loci with distinct SDPs on chromosomes increased to 400. These loci were dispersed on all chromosomes, except
for the Chromosome (Chr) Y, and effectively covered the genome with an average spacing of 4 cM. The SMXA RI strain set, hereby,
would be of value for genetic study.

Asthma is regarded as a multifactorial inflammatory disorder arising as a result of inappropriate immune responses in genetically susceptible individuals to common environmental antigens. However, the precise molecular basis is unknown. To identify genes for susceptibility to three asthma-related traits, airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), eosinophil infiltration, and allergen-specific serum IgE levels, we conducted a genetic analysis using SMXA recombinant inbred (RI) strains of mice. Quantitative trait locus analysis detected a significant locus for AHR on chromosome 17. For eosinophil infiltration, significant loci were detected on chromosomes 9 and 16. Although we could not detect any significant loci for allergen-specific serum IgE, analysis of consomic strains showed that chromosomes 17 and 19 carried genes that affected this trait. We detected genetic susceptibility loci that separately regulated the three asthma-related phenotypes. Our results suggested that different genetic mechanisms regulate these asthma-related phenotypes. Genetic analyses using murine RI and consomic strains enhance understanding of the molecular mechanisms of asthma in human. 相似文献

Adiponectin is thought to be an important mediator of insulin sensitivity and atherosclerosis. Using mouse 19 SMXA recombinant inbred (RI) strains, a powerful tool for analyzing multifactorial genetic traits, we found relationships between serum adiponectin levels and diabetes-related traits, body mass index, and serum lipid levels, and also determined the loci controlling serum adiponectin levels by quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis. RI strains exhibited widely ranging serum adiponectin concentration distribution patterns and diabetes-related traits. The serum adiponectin concentration showed the strongest negative correlation with fasting serum insulin concentration, but negative correlations were also observed with serum triglycerides, cholesterol, and liver weight. In contrast, neither the body mass index nor the blood glucose concentration correlated with serum adiponectin levels. These results suggest that hypoadiponectinemia might be used as a predictor of insulin resistance. In addition, two suggestive QTLs for serum adiponectin concentration were detected on Chromosome (Chr) 7, and an A/J allele at these loci was associated with elevated serum adiponectin concentrations. Identification of genes responsible for regulating the serum adiponectin concentration might lead to the development of novel treatments for patients with diabetes concomitant with hypoadiponectinemia. 相似文献

Differences in Zn-induced levels of hepatic metallothionein (MT) in inbred strains of the mouse are described. Three low-producing
strains, C57BL/6, C57BL/10, and NIH, are identified, while C3H and CBA display the highest levels of hepatic MT following
Zn treatment. These interstrain differences affect not only the level of MT protein, but also the amount of MT-bound Zn and
the total hepatic Zn concentration. Both MT isoforms are equally affected. A similar interstrain difference following Cu treatment
is present in C3H and C57BL/6. The origin of these interstrain differences is discussed. 相似文献

Testicular weights were studied in the mouse BXD recombinant inbred (RI) strains. These strains were derived from DBA/2J
and C57BL/6J progenitors that differ significantly in their testicular weights (0.224 g ± 0.015 vs. 0.161 g ± 0.03, P < 0.0001).
The heritability of testicular weights was calculated to be 0.53, and the minimum number of responsible effective factors
was estimated to be 5.7. The total genome scanning of the BXD RI strains with over 1000 markers revealed a quantitative trait
locus (QTL) on mouse Chromosome (Chr) 13 near the D13Mit3 marker (LOD score 6.9). This QTL region was designated Twq1 and associated with over 75% of genetic variability.

Pancreatic and salivary amylase cDNA probes have been used to search for new DNA fragment length variation among a total of 43 inbred mouse strains. Fragment length differences found with three restriction endonucleases grouped the strains into two major classes. The segregation of these variant fragments has been analyzed among several sets of recombinant inbred strains and is presented here. Previously reported differences for strains YBR and CE have been confirmed. New segregation data for carbonic anhydrase, a locus near the proximal end of mouse chromosome 3, are presented. 相似文献

In the SMXA recombinant inbred (RI) strains, we measured body weight, blood insulin and lipid (triglyceride, total cholesterol and phospholipid) levels in each strain. In the five traits, mean values of substrains varied remarkably and showed a continuous spectrum of distribution, suggesting control by multiple genes at distinct loci for each trait. We also screened for quantitative trait loci (QTLs) involved in the five traits. Suggestive QTLs for body weight (Chromosomes 1 and 6), insulin (Chromosomes 1, 3, 10 and 17), triglyceride (Chromosomes 4 and 11) and phospholipid (Chromosome 18) levels were detected. The SMXA RI strains are unique tools for analyzing genetic factors that influence body weight, blood insulin and lipids levels. 相似文献

The set of LXS recombinant inbred (RI) strains is a new and exceptionally large mapping panel that is suitable for the analysis of complex traits with comparatively high power. This panel consists of 77 strains—more than twice the size of other RI sets— and will typically provide sufficient statistical power (=0.8) to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that account for 25% of genetic variance with a genomewide p < 0.05. To characterize the genetic architecture of this new set of RI strains, we genotyped 330 MIT microsatellite markers distributed on all autosomes and the X Chromosome and assembled error-checked meiotic recombination maps that have an average F2-adjusted marker spacing of 4 cM. The LXS panel has a genetic structure consistent with random segregation and subsequent fixation of alleles, the expected 3–4 × map expansion, a low level of nonsyntenic association among loci, and complete independence among all 77 strains. Although the parental inbred strains—Inbred Long-Sleep (ILS) and Inbred Short-Sleep (ISS)—were derived originally by selection from an 8-way heterogeneous stock selected for differential sensitivity to sedative effects of ethanol, the LXS panel is also segregating for many other traits. Thus, the LXS panel provides a powerful new resource for mapping complex traits across many systems and disciplines and should prove to be of great utility in modeling the genetics of complex diseases in human populations.(Robert W.

This is the first phenotypic analysis of 75 new recombinant inbred (RI) strains derived from ILS and ISS progenitors. We analyzed
body weight in two independent cohorts of female mice at various ages and in males at 60 days. Body weight is a complex trait
which has been mapped in numerous crosses in rodents. The LXS RI strains displayed a large range of weights, transgressing
those of the inbred progenitors, supporting the utility of this large panel for mapping traits not selected in the progenitors.
Numerous QTLs for body weight mapped in single- and multilocus scans. We assessed replication between these and previously
reported QTLs based on overlapping confidence intervals of published QTLs for body weight at 60 days and used meta-analyses
to determine combined p values for three QTL regions located on Chromosomes 4, 5, and 11. Strain distribution patterns of microsatellite marker genotypes,
weight, and other phenotypes are available on WebQTL () and allow genetic mapping of any heritable quantitative phenotype measured in these strains. We report one such analysis,
correlating brain and body weights. Large reference panels of RI strains, such as the LXS, are invaluable for identifying
genetic correlations, GXE (Gene X Environment) interactions, and replicating previously identified QTLs.

Mechanical allodynia, or hypersensitivity to tactile stimuli, is a frequent clinical symptom of neuropathy. Large interindividual differences have been observed in neuropathic pain, both in susceptibility to its development and in its severity. Identification of genetic factors relevant to this variability would be of obvious utility. Although many animal models of neuropathic pain following peripheral nerve injury have been developed, most involve intricate surgeries and are thus poorly suited for large-scale linkage mapping investigations in the mouse. Recently, a schedule of intraperitoneal injections of the chemotherapeutic agent, paclitaxel (Taxol(R)), has been shown to produce a long-lasting, bilateral neuropathy in the rat, featuring hypersensitivity to mechanical, thermal and cold stimuli. We present here a survey of the responses of 10 inbred mouse strains to paclitaxel injections. Virtually all strains developed statistically significant mechanical allodynia, with one strain, DBA/2J, exhibiting especially robust changes. Strain sensitivities to paclitaxel-induced mechanical allodynia were similar to those obtained previously using a surgical model of neuropathic pain, supporting our contention that genetic sensitivity to mechanical allodynia is independent of the precise mode of induction. Using sensitive DBA/2 mice and a resistant strain, C57BL/6J, for comparison, we further characterized the paclitaxel model in mice by examining cold allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia. Both strains displayed equivalent cold allodynia but neither strain developed thermal hyperalgesia. The present data confirm a genetic component in mechanical allodynia using this model, while dissociating mechanical hypersensitivity from other pain modalities. 相似文献

We measured the combined area of posterior medial barrel subfield (PMBSF) and anterior lateral barrel subfield (ALBSF) areas in four common inbred strains (C3H/HeJ, A?/J, C57BL?/6J, DBA/2J), B6D2F1, and ten recombinant inbred (RI) strains generated from C57BL/6J and DBA/2J progenitors (BXD) as an initial attempt to examine the genetic influences underlying natural variation in barrel field size in adult mice. These two subfields are associated with the representation of the whisker pad and sinus hairs on the contralateral face. Using cytochrome oxidase labeling to visualize the barrel field, we measured the size of the combined subfields in each mouse strain. We also measured body weight and brain weight in each strain. We report that DBA/2J mice have a larger combined PMBSF/ALBSF area (6.15?±?0.10?mm2,?n?=?7) than C57BL?/6J (5.48?±?0.13?mm2,?n?=?10), C3H/HeJ (5.37?±?0.16?mm2,?n?=?10), and A/J mice (5.04?±?0.09?mm2,?n?=?15), despite the fact that DBA/2J mice have smaller average brain and body sizes. This finding may reflect dissociation between systems that control brain size with those that regulate barrel field area. In addition, BXD strains (average n?=?4) and parental strains showed considerable and continuous variation in PMBSF/ALBSF area, suggesting that this trait is polygenic. Furthermore, brain, body, and cortex weights have heritable differences between inbred strains and among BXD strains. PMBSF/ALBSF pattern appears similar among inbred and BXD strains, suggesting that somatosensory patterning reflects a common plan of organization. This data is an important first step in the quantitative genetic analysis of the parcellation of neocortex into diverse cytoarchitectonic zones that vary widely within and between species, and in identifying the genetic factors underlying barrel field size using quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses. 相似文献

Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) analysis has been used to examine natural variation of phenotypes in the mouse somatosensory cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum, and amygdala. QTL analysis has also been utilized to map and identify genes underlying anatomical features such as muscle, organ, and body weights. However, this methodology has not been previously applied to identification of anatomical structures related to gustatory phenotypes. In this study, we used QTL analysis to map and characterize genes underlying tongue size, papillae number, and papillae area. In a set of 43 BXD recombinant inbred (RI) mice (n = 111) and 2 parental strains (C57BL/6J and DBA/2J; n = 7), we measured tongue length, width, and weight. In a subset of 23 BXD RI mice and the parental mice, we measured filiform and fungiform papillae number and fungiform papillae area. Using QTL linkage analysis (through WebQTL), we detected 2 significant and noninteracting QTLs influencing tongue length on chromosomes 5 and 7. We also found a significant QTL on chromosome 19 underlying fungiform papillae area and a suggestive QTL on chromosome 2 linked to fungiform papillae number. From these QTLs, we identified a number of candidate genes within the QTL intervals that include SRY-box containing gene, nebulin-related anchoring protein, and actin-binding LIM protein 1. This study is an important first step in identifying genetic factors underlying tongue size, papillae size, and papillae number using QTL analysis. 相似文献

Fifteen behavioral measurements were taken on paradise fish of two inbred progenitor strains and of 16 recombinant lines derived from their cross and maintained under inbreeding with gynogenesis and sib-mating. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed significant differences among the RI means on all measures. Four combined variables extracted by principal component analysis showed that there were common sources of a large part of the behavioral variability measured in the arbitrarily designed test situations. There were no separate subgroups of the RI strain means, and overlapping ranges point to a polygenic genetic determination of the studied behavioral phenotypes. A biometrical analysis of the distribution pattern of recombinant lines and the progenitor strains showed that in several characters non-allelic genic interactions made a significant contribution to the variation. Additive and interaction components of the mean, the heritabilities and the minimum number of effective factors were estimated for all studied behavioral phenotypes, and the combined variables as well. 相似文献

Bread-making quality has been evaluated in a progeny of 194 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from the cross between the two
French cultivars Récital and Renan, cultivated in three environments. These cultivars have been previously identified as having
contrasting grain protein content and dough rheology properties, although they achieve similar scores for the official bread-making
test used for cultivar registration in France. However the progeny displayed a wide range of variations, suggesting that favourable
alleles at several loci are present in the two parental lines. Correlation analyses revealed that bread-making scores are
poorly correlated among environments, as they are poorly predicted by multiple regression on dough rheology parameters and
flour-protein content. However, loaf volume was the most heritable and predictable trait. A total of seven QTLs were found
for bread scores, each explaining 5.9–14.6% of trait variation and six for the loaf volume (10.7–17.2%). Most bread-making
QTLs, and particularly those detected in all environments, co-located with QTLs for dough rheology, protein content or flour
viscosity due to soluble pentosans (Fincher and Stone 1986; Anderson et al. in J Cereal Sci 19:77–82, 1994). Some QTL regions such as those on chromosome 3A and chromosome 7A, which display stable QTLs for bread-making scores and
loaf volume, were not previously known to host obvious genes for grain quality. 相似文献

Expression of murine leukemia viruses in the highly lymphomatous BXH-2 recombinant inbred mouse strain 总被引:16,自引:8,他引:8 下载免费PDF全文
Among 12 recombinant inbred strains of mice derived from crossing two strains, C57BL/6J and C3H/HeJ, which have a low incidence of neoplastic disease, one strain (BXH-2) has been found to have a high incidence of lymphoma, of non-T-cell origin, at an early age. The BXH-2 strain carries the Fv-1b allele and spontaneously expresses a B-tropic murine leukemia virus beginning at as early as 10 days of gestation and continuing throughout their life. No significant differences in ecotropic virus titers were observed at any age tested (16 to 17 days of gestation through 7 months), whereas xenotropic virus was first detected in lymphoid tissues of 2-month-old mice and virus titers increased with age. Dual tropic virus(es), which induced cytopathic changes on mink lung cells, was isolated from BXH-2 lymphomatous tissues. Unlike AKR mink lung focus-forming virus (N-tropic recombinant), BXH-2 dual tropic virus is B tropic and induces cytopathic changes in mouse fibroblast cultures as well. The BXH-2 mouse provides a model system for studying the role of replication-competent viruses in spontaneously occurring leukemias of non-T-cell lineage and neurological disease. 相似文献
