Disease relevance of Mice

  • Several different MMTV proviruses present in laboratory mice have segregated like stable, independent genetic elements during the inbreeding which followed a cross between Bagg albino and DBA mice 60 years ago [1].
  • The Thy-1 (theta) antigen was identified in wild mice (Mus musculus), the frequency of its alleles was determined in two natural populations of wild mice, and the possible T-cell origin of spontaneous lymphomas was investigated in one of these populations [2].
  • The ip application of a single dose of 1,000 mg Ro 10-9359/kg to female Swiss mice with chemically induced skin papillomas caused a 29% regression of the mean tumor diameter after 3 days and a 51% regression after 7 days [3].
  • Relationship between organotropism and leukemogenicity of type C RNA viruses as demonstrated in NIH Swiss mice inoculated at birth with Gross murine leukemia virus [4].
  • Infection of Swiss mouse 3T3FL cells with a clonal isolate of Moloney leukemia virus (MLV-IC) resulted in virus progeny composed of at least three different murine helper oncornaviruses [5].
  • BALB/c mice are susceptible to Leishmania major, whereas strain STS/A is resistant to this parasite [6]. Seventeen Lmr loci that control this strain difference have been mapped (reviewed in [7].

High impact information on Mice

  • To test directly whether the glutamine-rich region is required for Sry function in vivo, we created truncation mutations of the Mus musculus musculus Sry gene and tested their ability to induce testis formation in XX embryos using a transgenic mouse assay [13].
  • In mice (genus Mus) Sry also includes a large CAG trinucleotide repeat region encoding a carboxy-terminal glutamine-rich domain that acts as a transcriptional trans-activator in vitro [13].
  • Different chromosomal localization of the Clcn4 gene in Mus spretus and C57BL/6J mice [14].
  • In contrast, we report that the murine locus, Csf2ra, maps to an autosome in the laboratory mouse [15].
  • We have found a paternally nonimprinted Tme variant in crosses of Thp females with Mus m. musculus males [16].

Gene context of Mice

  • Studies were performed in euthymic and athymic NIH Swiss mice 28 days PI and in the presence or absence of treatment with corticosteroid or COX inhibitors [36].
  • Genetic analysis using an interspecies (Mus musculus X Mus spretus) back-cross confirmed this assignment by demonstrating that both the GM-CSF and Multi-CSF genes are genetically linked to the SPARC gene, which had been independently assigned to sub-band B1 of chromosome 11 [37].
  • A premature-termination mutation in the Mus musculus cyclin-dependent kinase 3 gene [38].
  • In this report, the role of the H19 gene in its own imprinting is investigated by introducing a Mus spretus H19 gene into heterologous locations in the mouse genome [39].
  • Five probes localizing to the Xq26-Xqter region of the human X chromosome have been genetically mapped on the mouse X chromosome using an interspecific cross involving Mus spretus to a contiguous region lying proximally to the Tabby (Ta) locus [40].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Mice

  • Understanding the action of genetic factors, such as Cinda1 [46] , Cinda2 [46], Cinda3 [47], Cinda4 [47] and Cinda5 [47] that control T cell function is expected to contribute to the efficient analysis of the genetic control of susceptibility to infections, cancer and autoimmune diseases [46].
