| 006133 | B6.129S4-Vdrtm1Mbd/J | Repository- Live |
| Heterozygous mice are phenotypically indistinguishable from wildtype siblings. As originally characterized on a mixed B6;129 genetic background, homozygous mice are viable and fertile with normal survival until approximately 14 months. RNA isolated from the intestine and kidney show a truncated deletion of the second zinc finger coding region followed by a premature termination codon, resulting in the absence of receptor protein. Homozygous mice exhibit an identical phenotype as the human disease hereditary vitamin D-dependent rickets type II (HVDDR). As early as 21 days of age, mutant mice demonstrate hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, hyperparathyroidism, increased serum parathyroid hormone, abnormal blood mineral levels, and growth retardation. In addition, renin and plasma angiotensin II levels are increased. Homozygous mice are hypertensive and exhibit cardiachypertrophy. At 4 weeks of age, homozygous mice exhibit perioral and periorbital alopecia that progresses over the entire bod ..... For more information please see the full phenotype on the strain data sheet | ||
| 006956 | NOD.Cg-Vdrtm1Ska/CmatJ | Cryopreserved - Ready for recovery |
| Heterozygous mice are viable, fertile, and phenotypically indistinguishable from wildtype siblings. Homozygous mutant mice are viable but infertile. No VDR mRNA is detected by RT-PCR in samples from the intestine or kidney or from homozygous mutant embryo. Increased expression of CTP27B1 and reduced expression of CYP24A1 and calbindin-D9k is detected by RT-PCR in samples from VDR-deficient kidneys. Although mice homozygous for this targeted mutation are viable, shortly after weaning they exhibit dysmorphic features including a flat face and short nose, alopecia, growth retardation, and skeletal defects including hypocalcaemia, decreased bone mineral density, widened growth plates with hypomineralization, less trabeculae and thicker osteo seams. Homozygous mutant mice exhibit metabolic imbalances including abnormally high and low levels of 1,25(OH),2D3 and 25(OH)D3, respectively and abnormal cytokine and chemokine profiles.
