| Mice that are homozygous for the targeted mutation are viable and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. By 6 weeks of age homozygous mice have lower body weight. Homozygous females may have reduced litter sizes. No gene product (mRNA) is detected by Northern blot analysis of lung tissue after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge. Mice homozygous for the mutation are less susceptible to experimental Listeria monocytogenes infection, but are more susceptible to LPS endotoxin challenge. After LPS challenge IL-1 levels are decreased. Basal serum amyloid protein and serum IL-6 levels are higher. Hepatic acute phase protein inflammatory response and mortality to subcutaneous turpentine abscess induction are increased. When fed a high fat diet containing cholate for 12 weeks, homozygotes exhibit a 3-fold decrease in total cholesterol (non-HDL). Heterozygotes fed the same diet exhibit an intermediate decrease in total cholesterol. Immunohistochemical analysis of h .....

| 004753 | B6.Cg-Tg(Il1rn)1Dih/J | Cryopreserved - Ready for recovery |
| These transgenic mice overexpress the secreted mouse Il1rn under the control of endogenous regulatory elements. The transgene contains the sequence encoding the secreted protein with a point mutation (G to A) in exon 3. These mice have an estimated 8 copies of the transgene in tandem array. Northern blot analysis of liver tissue following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) endotoxin challenge detects overexpression. RT-PCR analysis of corneal tissue detects higher levels of gene product (mRNA) than wildtype controls. The Donating Investigator reports that hemizygous mice are viable and fertile, whereas homozygous mice are sickly and die prematurely. Transgenic mice are less susceptible to LPS challenge than wildtype controls, but are more susceptible to experimental Listeria monocytogenes infection. Following endotoxin (LPS) challenge serum IL-1 levels are higher. Mice hemizygous for the transgene exhibit an intermediate susceptibility. Severity of stromal keratitis caused by herpes simpl .....
