Objectives: The lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) model has been widely applied for pathophysiological and pharmacological research. The aim of present study is to understand the variation of acute pulmonary inflammation between mouse strains. Methods: The present study investigated the susceptibility of acute production of inflammatory mediators, e.g. cytokines, chemokines and others, to LPS in C57BL/6J, Balb/cJ, DBA/1J, CD-1, NMRI, DBA/2J, A/J, and C3H/HeN mice. Results: The susceptibility to intra-tracheal challenge with LPS varied between measured variables, durations and strains. General lung hyper-reactive susceptibility to LPS-induced pulmonary production of 6–8 inflammatory mediators followed the order NMRI, Balb/cJ, C3H/HeN, A/J, C57BL/6J, DBA/1J, DBA/2J and CD-1 mice at 4 h, and A/J, C3H/HeN, CD-1, NMRI, C57BL/6J, Balb/cJ, DBA/2J and DBA/1J mice at 24 h. Conclusions: Our data provide information for scientists to consider the proper strain of mice for the measurement of specific inflammatory mediators and to select sensitive or resistant mouse strains for understanding genetic variation in the pathogenesis and for the screening of target-oriented drug development.  相似文献

Genetic differences in nicotine-induced conditioned taste aversion were examined using inbred mice. Adult male C57BL/6J, DBA/2J, BALB/cJ and C3H/heJ mice were adapted to a 2-h per day water access regimen. Subsequently, mice received nicotine injections (0.5, 1.0 or 2.0 mg/kg) immediately after 1-h access to a NaCl flavored solution. DBA and C3H mice developed dosedependent aversions to the nicotine-paired flavor. BALB mice showed only minor reductions in intake with no difference between the nicotine dose groups. C57BL mice did not show development of nicotine-induced conditioned taste aversion. These results demonstrate that nicotine's aversive motivational effect is strongly influenced by genotype. Further, genetic sensitivity (DBA mice) or insensitivity (C57BL mice) to nicotine-induced conditioned taste aversion was similar to reports of genetic sensitivity to ethanol's aversive effect measured in this design.  相似文献

Molecular mechanisms of salty taste in mammals are not completely understood. We use genetic approaches to study these mechanisms. Previously, we developed a high-throughput procedure to measure NaCl taste thresholds, which involves conditioning mice to avoid LiCl and then examining avoidance of NaCl solutions presented in 48-h 2-bottle preference tests. Using this procedure, we measured NaCl taste thresholds of mice from 13 genealogically divergent inbred stains: 129P3/J, A/J, BALB/cByJ, C3H/HeJ, C57BL/6ByJ, C57BL/6J, CBA/J, CE/J, DBA/2J, FVB/NJ, NZB/BlNJ, PWK/PhJ, and SJL/J. We found substantial strain variation in NaCl taste thresholds: mice from the A/J and 129P3/J strains had high thresholds (were less sensitive), whereas mice from the BALB/cByJ, C57BL/6J, C57BL/6ByJ, CE/J, DBA/2J, NZB/BINJ, and SJL/J had low thresholds (were more sensitive). NaCl taste thresholds measured in this study did not significantly correlate with NaCl preferences or amiloride sensitivity of chorda tympani nerve responses to NaCl determined in the same strains in other studies. To examine whether strain differences in NaCl taste thresholds could have been affected by variation in learning ability or sensitivity to toxic effects of LiCl, we used the same method to measure citric acid taste thresholds in 4 inbred strains with large differences in NaCl taste thresholds but similar acid sensitivity in preference tests (129P3/J, A/J, C57BL/6J, and DBA/2J). Citric acid taste thresholds were similar in these 4 strains. This suggests that our technique measures taste quality-specific thresholds that are likely to represent differences in peripheral taste responsiveness. The strain differences in NaCl taste sensitivity found in this study provide a basis for genetic analysis of this phenotype.  相似文献

Inbred mouse strains exhibit differences in susceptibility to influenza A infections. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these differences are unknown. Therefore, we infected a highly susceptible mouse strain (DBA/2J) and a resistant strain (C57BL/6J) with influenza A H1N1 (PR8) and performed genome-wide expression analysis. We found genes expressed in lung epithelium that were specifically down-regulated in DBA/2J mice, whereas a cluster of genes on chromosome 3 was only down-regulated in C57BL/6J. In both mouse strains, chemokines, cytokines and interferon-response genes were up-regulated, indicating that the main innate immune defense pathways were activated. However, many immune response genes were up-regulated in DBA/2J much stronger than in C57BL/6J, and several immune response genes were exclusively regulated in DBA/2J. Thus, susceptible DBA/2J mice showed a hyper-inflammatory response. This response is similar to infections with highly pathogenic influenza virus and may serve as a paradigm for a hyper-inflammatory host response to influenza A virus.  相似文献

Because cannabinoid and serotonin (5-HT) systems have been proposed to play an important role in drug craving, we investigated whether cannabinoid 1 (CB1) and 5-HT(1A) receptor ligands could affect voluntary alcohol intake in two mouse strains, C57BL/6 J and DBA/2 J, with marked differences in native alcohol preference. When offered progressively (3-10% ethanol) in drinking water, in a free-choice procedure, alcohol intake was markedly lower (approximately 70%) in DBA/2 J than in C57BL/6 J mice. In DBA/2 J mice, chronic treatment with the cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN 55,212-2 increased alcohol intake. WIN 55,212-2 effect was prevented by concomitant, chronic CB1 receptor blockade by rimonabant or chronic 5-HT(1A) receptor stimulation by 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)-tetralin, which, on their own, did not affect alcohol intake. In C57BL/6 J mice, chronic treatment with WIN 55,212-2 had no effect but chronic CB1 receptor blockade or chronic 5-HT(1A) receptor stimulation significantly decreased alcohol intake. Parallel autoradiographic investigations showed that chronic treatment with WIN 55,212-2 significantly decreased 5-HT(1A)-mediated [35S]guanosine triphosphate-gamma-S binding in the hippocampus of both mouse strains. Conversely, chronic rimonabant increased this binding in C57BL/6 J mice. These results show that cannabinoid neurotransmission can exert a permissive control on alcohol intake, possibly through CB1-5-HT(1A) interactions. However, the differences between C57BL/6 J and DBA/2 J mice indicate that such modulations of alcohol intake are under genetic control.  相似文献

Variations in maternal behavior, either occurring naturally or in response to experimental manipulations, have been shown to exert long-lasting consequences on offspring behavior and physiology. Despite previous research examining the effects of developmental manipulations on drug-related phenotypes, few studies have specifically investigated the influence of strain-based differences in maternal behavior on drug responses in mice. The current experiments used reciprocal F1 hybrids of two inbred mouse strains (i.e. DBA/2J and C57BL/6J) that differ in both ethanol (EtOH) responses and maternal behavior to assess the effects of maternal environment on EtOH-related phenotypes. Male and female DBA/2J and C57BL/6J mice and their reciprocal F1 hybrids reared by either DBA/2J or C57BL/6J dams were tested in adulthood for EtOH intake (choice, forced), EtOH-induced hypothermia, EtOH-induced activity and EtOH-induced conditioned place preference (CPP). C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice showed differences on all EtOH responses. Consistent with previous reports that maternal strain can influence EtOH intake, F1 hybrids reared by C57BL/6J dams consumed more EtOH during forced exposure than did F1 hybrids reared by DBA/2J dams. Maternal strain also influenced EtOH-induced hypothermic responses in F1 hybrids, producing differences in hybrid mice that paralleled those of the inbred strains. In contrast, maternal strain did not influence EtOH-induced activity or CPP in hybrid mice. The current findings indicate that maternal environment may contribute to variance in EtOH-induced hypothermia and EtOH intake, although effects on EtOH intake appear to be dependent upon the type of EtOH exposure.  相似文献

A cellular specific-locus mutation test is described for detecting mutant cells in mammals. The test is based upon the use of specific anti-C57BL/6J mouse hemoglobin antibody that binds hemoglobin “single” (hemoglobin s, present in C57BL/6J mouse) and not hemoglobin “diffuse” (hemoglobin d, present in DBA/2J mouse). Attempts to purify such antibody from pony and rabbit antisera through cross-absorption were unsuccessful. Immunization of LP/J mouse with C57BL/6J hemoglobin produced antiserum that reacted with s hemoglobin but not with d hemoglobin. In a fluorescent antibody technique, this antibody was found to label fixed red blood cells from C57BL/6J mice but not from DBA/2J mice. In a mixture of C57BL/6J and DBA/2J red cells, the C57BL/6J cells could be differentiated by their bright fluorescence from the non-fluorescent DBA/2J cells. Reconstruction experiment with artificial mixtures of DBA/2J and C57BL/6J cells showed that s hemoglobin bearing cells could be detected in DBA/2J red cells at frequencies as small as 0.4×10?6. Thus, the system is sensitive enough to detect d → s mutation in DBA/2J mice. Amino acid comparison of the globin chains of s and d hemoglobins shows that our antibody can probably detect mutations leading to a substitution of serine or proline by alanine at β20 position and/or a substitution of threonine by alanine at β139 position.  相似文献

Alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase, the two principal enzymes of alcohol metabolism, were assayed in the livers of the inbred mouse strains C57BL/6J and DBA/2J. Previous work has shown that animals of various C57BL substrains prefer a 10% ethanol solution to water in a two-bottle preference test, and that animals of various DBA/2 substrains avoid alcohol. In the present study, C57BL/6J mice were found to have 300% more aldehyde dehydrogenase activity than DBA/2J mice and 30% more alcohol dehydrogenase activity. The F1 generation is intermediate to the parents in preference for the 10% alcohol solution and is also found to possess intermediate levels of alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenase activity. These experiments suggest a systematic relationship between the behavioral trait of ethanol preference and the activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase and a similar but much less pronounced relationship with alcohol dehydrogenase.This research was supported by grant GM14547 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences.  相似文献

Success of embryo transfer is often a limiting factor in transgenic procedures and rederivation efforts, and depends on the genetic background of the donor and recipient strains used. Here we show that embryo transfer to DBA/2J females is possible, and present data on pre- and postnatal success rates after reciprocal embryo transfer using the inbred DBA/2J and C3H/HeN, and outbred NMRI strains. The highest embryo yield was achieved in outbred NMRI females, but embryo yields were similar in DBA/2J and C3H/HeN mice following superovulation despite poor estrus cycle synchronization in DBA/2J females. In-strain transfer of DBA/2J blastocysts (transfer of embryos to recipients from the same strain) resulted in pregnancy rates (57.1%) similar to those obtained following in-strain transfer of C3H/HeN (60.0%) and NMRI mice (83.3%), although the prenatal survival rate of blastocysts was low. Moreover, from the pups born only half survived the postnatal period after transfer of DBA/2J and C3H/HeN blastocysts to DBA/2J recipients. These problems were not observed when transferring NMRI-blastocysts to C3H/HeN and DBA/2J mothers. The number of blastocysts transferred also had a positive effect on the success of embryo transfer. In conclusion, C3H/HeN and DBA/2J females can be used as recipients for embryo transfer procedures for certain donor strains like NMRI, as one major determinant seems to be the genetic background of the embryos transferred. We also recommend to increase the number of DBA/2J blastocysts transferred, and to foster the DBA/2J pups to other DBA/2J mothers postnatally for in-strain transfer of DBA/2J mice.  相似文献

Left-right direction of paw usage in the mouse depends on the genotype and the directional nature of the test. There are two phenotypic classes; in some strains, direction of paw usage is learned or conditioned by the direction of the initial test chamber and the experience of reaching and, in other strains, paw usage is a constitutive behaviour not affected by previous experience. We report the evidence for locus heterogeneity in the cause of constitutive versus experience-conditioned paw usage from a phenotypic analysis of F1 hybrid generations from the experience-conditioned C57BL/6J, C3H/HeHa, and SWV strains and the constitutive CDS/Lay and DBA/2J strains. The F1 hybrids between strains of different phenotypic classes provide evidence of locus heterogeneity. Constitutive paw usage in CDS/Lay is phenotypically dominant to experience-conditioned behaviour in both C57BL/6J and SWV. However, constitutive paw usage in DBA/2J is phenotypically recessive to experience-conditioned behaviour in C57BL/6J and dominant to experience-conditioned behaviour in SWV. Among the experience-conditioned strains, C57BL/6J is highly lateralized but SWV is only weakly lateralized. Our data suggest a model in which C57BL/6J may have a "strong" allele that identifies a functional difference between the constitutive paw usage of CDS/Lay and DBA/2J. DBA/2J may have a loss-of-function mutation at the same locus that is recessive to the strong C57BL/6J allele. SWV may have a "weak" allele and the (SWV x D2)F1 compound heterozygote may be below a threshold for detectability of experience-conditioned behaviour, making the constitutive behaviour of DBA/2J appear to be dominant to the experience-conditioned behaviour of SWV. CDS/Lay may have a dominant allele at a second locus that suppresses experience-conditioned behaviour in all F1 hybrids.  相似文献

The genetic control of sex-chromosomal univalency was examined in the primary spermatocytes of the mouse. The C57BL/6J strain expresses 3% X-Y univalency and DBA/2J expresses 37% univalency. The reciprocal F1 and the eight types of reciprocal backcross males were examined. In the C57BL/6J--DBA/2J strain pair, X--Y univalency is controlled by three genetic systems. Autosomal factors of unknown number that are dominant in DBA/2J increase the probability of univalency from 3% in C57BL/6J to 12%. The DBA/2J-Y chromosome, in place of the C57BL/6J-Y chromosome, has an additive effect to increase the probability of univalency from 12 to 37% in the DBA/2J strain. Two X-chromosome factors that differ between C57BL/6J and DBA/2J regulate the probability of univalency. The X-chromosome factors appear to be separated by sufficient distance so that, with the DBA/2J-Y chromosome and dominant DBA/2J autosomal factors, there are two recombinant classes of X--Y univalency at 20 and 60%. The genetic factors in the univalency trait may be involved in the regulation or structure of the terminal attachment sites between the X and Y chromosomes.  相似文献

The wild-derived CLA inbred strain of the house mouse contains a domesticus-type Y chromosome that lacks a 2.3-kb TaqI band with fragment 1 of the AC11 probe. The CLA Y chromosome also causes a low frequency of XY gonadal hermaphrodites when backcrossed to the C57BL/6J strain (F. G. Biddle and Y. Nishioka, 1988. Genome, 30:870-878). A similar domesticus-type Y chromosome, lacking the 2.3-kb TaqI band has now been found in the four historical inbred strains AKR/J, MA/MyJ, PL/J, and RF/J. When backcrossed to C57BL/6J, these four Y chromosomes cause low frequencies of gonadal hermaphrodites similar to the CLA Y and phenotypic distribution of types of gonad are indistinguishable from that with the CLA Y. The absence of the 2.3-kb TaqI band appears to be a polymorphism among domesticus-type Y chromosomes that identifies one of the three functional classes that, so far, can be distinguished only by their effects on testis differentiation in backcross test fetuses with the C57BL/6J strain. Three other historical inbred strains, BUB/BnJ, ST/bJ, and SWR/J, with a domesticus-type Y chromosome but containing the 2.3-kb TaqI band, were also assayed. They permit normal testis development in backcross test fetuses with C57BL/6J.  相似文献

Automated apparatus for quantitation of social approach behaviors in mice   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Mouse models of social dysfunction, designed to investigate the complex genetics of social behaviors, require an objective methodology for scoring social interactions relevant to human disease symptoms. Here we describe an automated, three chambered apparatus designed to monitor social interaction in the mouse. Time spent in each chamber and the number of entries are scored automatically by a system detecting photocell beam breaks. When tested with the automated equipment, juvenile male C57BL/6J mice spent more time in a chamber containing a stranger mouse than in an empty chamber (sociability), similar to results obtained by the observer scored method. In addition, automated scoring detected a preference to spend more time with an unfamiliar stranger than a more familiar conspecific (preference for social novelty), similar to results obtained by the observer scored method. Sniffing directed at the wire cage containing the stranger mouse correlated significantly with time spent in that chamber, indicating that duration in a chamber represents true social approach behavior. Number of entries between chambers did not correlate with duration of time spent in the chambers; entries instead proved a useful control measure of general activity. The most significant social approach behavior took place in the first five minutes of both the sociability and preference for social novelty tests. Application of these methods to C57BL/6J, DBA/2J and FVB/NJ adult males revealed that all three strains displayed tendencies for sociability and preference for social novelty. To evaluate the importance of the strain of the stranger mouse on sociability and preference for social novelty, C57BL/6J subject mice were tested either with A/J strangers or with C57BL/6J strangers. Sociability and preference for social novelty were similar with both stranger strains. The automated equipment provides an accurate and objective approach to measuring social tendencies in mice. Its use may allow higher-throughput scoring of mouse social behaviors in mouse models of social dysfunction.  相似文献

To evaluate the effect of genetic background on antibacterial defense to streptococcal infection, eight genetically diverse strains of mice (A/J, DBA/2J, CAST/Ei, FVB/NJ, BALB/cJ, C57BL/6J, 129/SvImJ, and C3H/HeJ) and tlr2-deficient mice (C57BL/6tlr2−/−) were infected with three doses of Streptococcus zooepidemicus (500, 5,000, or 50,000 colony-forming units) by alveolar challenge. There was a range of susceptibility between the strains at each dose and time point (6, 24, and 96 h). At the lowest dose, the 129/SvImJ and C3H/HeJ strains had significantly higher bacterial counts at all time points after infection, when compared to A/J, DBA/2J, CAST/Ei, FVB/NJ, which were resistant to infection at the low dose of innoculum. At the medium dose, 129/SvImJ and C3H/HeJ had higher bacterial counts, while A/J, DBA/2J, and BALB/cJ showed reduced streptococcal growth. After the highest dose of Streptococcus, there were minimal differences between strains, suggesting the protective impact of modifier genes can be overcome. TLR2-deficient animals contained increased bacterial load with reduced cytokines after 96 h when compared to C57BL/6J controls suggesting a role of innate immunity in late antibacterial defense. Overall, we identify vulnerable (129/SvlmJ and C3H/HeJ) and resistant (A/J, FVB, and DBA) mouse strains to streptococcal lung infection, which demonstrate divergent genetic expression profiles. These results demonstrate that innate differences in pulmonary host defense to S. zooepidemicus are dependent on host genetic factors.  相似文献

Amyloid deposition in 11 inbred strains of mice (A/J, SJL/J, DDD, C57BL/6J, B10.BR, C57BL/10, B10A/SgSn, C3H/HeMs, B10A(5R), DBA/2 and C57BL/6Cr5/c) was studied using the peroxidase antiperoxidase (PAP) method and antisera against ASSAM and murine protein AA. Among the 170 mice examined, in 77 (45.3%) from the nine strains other than C3H/HeMs and DBA/2, there was evidence of spontaneous amyloid deposits in routine histological sections. Immunohistochemical studies using 54 mice with amyloid deposition, demonstrated ASSAM deposition in 45 mice (83.3%) in all nine strains, although the incidence and intensity of the deposition differed somewhat between strains. SJL/J and A/J had ASSAM deposits from the age of 8 months and the incidence increased with advancing age. In the other seven strains, ASSAM was first deposited at an older age than in the SJL/J and A/J strains. In A J, C57BL/6J, C57BL/10, B10.BR, B10A(5R) and C57BL/6Cr5/c, protein AA often coexisted with ASSAM. The distribution pattern of the ASSAM deposits was similar to that observed among the SAM strains. Thus, ASSAM is an ubiquitously distributed senile amyloid protein in the mouse. Determination of the molecular type of apoA-II, a serum precursor of ASSAM, among all 11 strains using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revealed the SAM-P/1 type apoA-II variant in SJL/J and A/J strains with a high susceptibility to ASSAM deposition. We concluded from this study that amino acid substitution in precursor apoA-II may be responsible for the early onset and severe amyloid deposition in the mouse.  相似文献

Pulmonary and hepatic levels of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) were studied in inbred strains of mice following intratracheal (i.t.) instillation of 3-methylcholanthrene (MCA). I.t. instillation of 188 mug MCA in sterile 0.2% gelatin in saline resulted in preferential induction of pulmonary AHH. After treatment with this dose of MCA, the pulmonary AHH levels of strains C57BL/6Cum, C57BL/6J, BALB/cMai, C3H/fMai, and C57L/J were observed to be induced within 24 h after treatment. Strains DBA/2Cum, AKR/J, SJL/J, DBA/2J and RF/J expressed no such increase. At a dose of 500 mug MCA, the pulmonary tissue of DBA/2 mice did express a 4-fold increase. This increase in AHH was determined to be quite different from the increase observed in C57BL/6 mice by: (1) specific activity of the enzymes, (2) genetic regulation, (3) susceptibility to inhibition by 7,8-benzoflavone, and (4) spectral properties of the associated cytochromes. It was of major importance that induction of pulmonary AHH was observed to be regulated by a single dominant gene in crosses involving the C57BL/6Cum and DBA/2Cum strains of mice. Results were discussed with the view in mind that these genetically regulated levels of AHH may play a role in susceptibility to cancers induced by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon carcinogens.  相似文献

Research was undertaken to answer basic questions on susceptibility, clinical response and transmission of ectromelia virus in selected strains of inbred mice. C57BL/6J and AKR/J were found to be markedly more resistant to a virulent strain of ectromelia virus (isolated during the 1979-80 outbreak at the National Institutes of Health) than C57LJ, BALB/cByJ, DBA/2J, A.By/SNJ and C3H/HeJ when infected by footpad inoculation. In C57BL/6J and AKR/J the LD50 was about 7 logs higher than the ID50. With one exception, C57LJ, the LD50 and ID50 titers in the other strains were about equal. In C57LJ the LD50 titer was intermediate. Following intragastric inoculation, virus was isolated from feces of C57BL/6J mice for as long as 46 days and up to 29 days from BALB/cByJ mice. Transmission to cage mates from intragastrically infected C57BL/6J and BALB/cByJ occurred up to 36 and 30 days respectively after infection. Virus was isolated from the spleen in 2 of 5 BALB/cByJ mice and 1 of 7 C57BL/6J mice tested 95 days after gastric inoculation. Following footpad inoculation, BALB/cByJ mice consistently transmitted virus to cage mates before death at 10-12 days. C57BL/6J mice transmitted between days 8 and 17, but not beyond. Virus was maintained in C57BL/6J mice by exposure to infected cage mates for seven passages, which was the most attempted. Clinical signs in infected C57BL/6J mice were usually subtle or inapparent.  相似文献

Phenobarbital-induced coumarin 7-hydroxylase is high in DBA/2J and low in C57BL/6N inbred mice; this genetic difference is encoded by the Coh locus on chromosome 7. The aim of this study was to develop an antibody specific for this cytochrome P-450 polymorphism. P-450 fractions, highly specific for phenobarbital-inducible coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity, were purified from DBA/2J and C57BL/6N mouse liver microsomes. Both proteins are 49 kDa, as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Soret peaks of the reduced cytochrome . CO complexes are 451 nm. Reconstituted DBA/2J coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity exhibits a V twice as high as, and a Km value 10-fold less than, the reconstituted C57BL/6N activity. Antibodies were raised in rabbit. By Ouchterlony immunodiffusion, both antibodies show 100% cross-reactivity with DBA/2J and C57BL/6N microsomes and purified antigens. Yet, DBA/2J but not C57BL/6N 7-hydroxylase activity is inhibited by the antibody to DBA/2J P-450. Both DBA/2J and C57BL/6N activities are blocked by the antibody to C57BL/6N P-450. Neither antibody has any effect on liver microsomal d-benzphetamine N-demethylase, ethylmorphine N-demethylase, aminopyrine N-demethylase, 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase, acetanilide 4-hydroxylase, or aryl hydrocarbon (benzo[a]pyrene) hydroxylase activity. The DBA/2J protein most specific for phenobarbital-induced coumarin 7-hydroxylation is designated 'P-450Coh'. Anti-(P-450Coh) precipitates a relatively minor 49-kDa protein from detergent-solubilized microsomes and from in vitro translation of poly(A+)-enriched total RNA of phenobarbital-treated DBA/2J mouse liver, whereas the major phenobarbital-induced P-450 proteins exhibit a molecular mass of about 51 kDa. The immunoprecipitated translation products correspond to a messenger RNA of 2100 +/- 100 nucleotides.  相似文献

C3H lymph node cell (LNC) grafts, but not bone marrow cell (BMC) grafts, were resisted by lethally irradiated NZB, (C57BL × NZB)F1, and (C57BL/6 × DBA/2)F1 mice. BALB/ c hosts did not resist C3H LNC, suggesting that Ir-like genes regulate resistance to such grafts. Cyclophosphamide, silica particles, and 89Sr pretreatments of prospective host mice resulted in successful proliferation of C3H LNC in most instances. These agents were known to abrogate resistance to incompatible BMC grafts. The determinants for antigens recognized on LNC appear to map in or near the D region of H-2. LNC grafts of all H-2k strains tested (C3H, CBA, C58, C57BR) were strongly resisted while A, C3H.A, B10.A(5R), A.TL, and A.Tlab LNC grafts were not strongly resisted by NZB hosts. Grafts of H-2b (C57BL/6, C57BL/10, 129) LNC, or BMC are resisted by NZB or (C57BL/6 × DBA/2)F1 hosts. (C3H × C57BL)F1 LNC but not BMC were resisted by similar hosts. (C57BL/6 × DBA/2)F1 mice were injected with C57BL/6 spleen cells four times to induce specific “unresponsiveness” to parental-strain Hemopoietic histocompatibility (Hh) antigens. Unresponsiveness was induced to C57BL/6 BMC, as expected, but C57BL/6 and C3H LNC grafts were resisted despite the spleen cell injections. The data suggest that the antigens recognized during rejection of C3H LNC are not expressed on C3H BMC. It is even conceivable that Hh antigens on C57BL/6 BMC and LNC have separate determinants. Alternatively, the injections of C57BL/6 spleen cells may have induced an anti-idiotypic response that was capable of eliminating C57BL/6 LNC by a different effector mechanism.  相似文献

The interstrain differences in performance of C57BL/6J, BALB/c and DBA/2J male mice in two cognitive tasks were found. Mice C57BL/6J showed good learning ability and preservation of memory traces tested 10 days after performance in a simplified version of Morris water maze. Mice BALB/c learned the task but, virtually, no long-term memory traces were revealed, whereas DBA/2J demonstrated poor learning. The effect of nootropic drug Noopept (GVS-111, N-phenil-acetyl-L-prolylglycin ethyl ether) was shown to be genotype-dependent. Its administration (0.5 mg/kg i.p., 15 min before learning) improved the long-term memory in Morris test in BALB/c mice but failed to produce any improvement in C57BL/6J. The ability of mice for extrapolation of the direction of stimulus movement differently changed after Noopept injections: the proportion of correct task solutions increased in C57BL/6J and BALB/c mice, whereas the performance of DBA/2J did not change.  相似文献
