| 000457 | B10.RIII-H2r H2-T18b/(71NS)SnJ | Level 2 |
| This congenic strain develops chronic and relapsing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) after immunization with myelin basic protein (MBP). Susceptibility is associated with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) allele, H2r, the T cell receptor V β8 chain, and other non MHC loci. This strain also is susceptible to induction of collagen-induced arthritis. | ||
| 000670 | DBA/1J | Level 2 |
| DBA/1J mice are widely used as a model for rheumatoid arthritis: immunization with type II collagen leads to the development of severe polyarthritis mediated by an autoimmune response. The incidence of collagen induced arthritis varies by experimental protocol, but is less than 100%. Similar to the human condition, mice with collagen-induced arthritis display synovitis and erosions of cartilage and bone. In addition, susceptibility in both humans and mice is linked to the expression of specific MHC class II molecules. DBA/1J mice show an intermediate susceptibility to developing atherosclerotic aortic lesions on an atherogenic diet. In response to challenge, DBA/1J mice develop immune-mediated nephritis characterized by proteinuria, glomerulonephritis and tubulointerstitial disease (Xie et al., 2004). | ||
| 001140 | DBA/1LacJ | Level 2 |
| Historical reports indicate DBA/1J and DBA/1LacJ mice immunized with type II collagen develop a severe polyarthritis mediated by an autoimmune response. Recent in-house studies suggest that the response to collagen induction in the DBA/1LacJ strain is not as robust as indicated by earlier studies. Arthritis models such as B10.RIII-H2r H2-T18b/(71NS)SnJ (Stock No. 000457) and BUB/BnJ (Stock No. 000653) can be used as alternatives to DBA/1LacJ. Similar to the human condition, mice with collagen-induced arthritis display synovitis and erosions of cartilage and bone. In addition, susceptibility in both humans and mice is linked to the expression of specific MHC class II molecules. DBA/1 mice show a low susceptibility to developing atherosclerotic aortic lesions (20 to 350 um2 atherosclerotic aortic lesions/aortic cross-section) following 14 weeks on a

| 000653 | BUB/BnJ | Repository- Live |
| BUB/BnJ mice carry a specific T cell receptor V beta mutation, making this strain highly susceptible to collagen-induced arthritis. This T cell receptor V beta restriction works in concert with other uncharacterized modifying genes present in BUB/BnJ mice. BUB/BnJ mice carry no detectable endogenous ecotropic MuLV DNA sequences. Mice are also reported to have high serum complement activity. In response to challenge, BUB/BnJ mice develop immune-mediated nephritis characterized by proteinuria, glomerulonephritis and tubulointerstitial disease (Xie et al., 2004). BUB/BnJ mice are homozygous for the Mass1frings allele (monogenic, audiogenic seizure susceptibility 1) and are susceptible to audiogenic seizures prior to 25 days of age (Skradski, et al 2001). In addition, the Mass1frings allele acounts for early onset hearing impairment by 3-4 weeks of age (Johnson KR, et al 2005). | ||
| 001069 | B10.RIII-H2r/(71NS)nMobJ | Repository-Cryopreserved |
| The B10.RIII(71NS)/SnJ congenic strain develop chronic and relapsing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) after immunization with the myelin basic protein (MBP). Susceptibility is associated with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)(V beta 8<+>, H2<r>) and other non MHC loci. This strain is also susceptible to induction of collagen-induced arthritis. | ||
