002448 129S1/SvImJ
Level 2
Historically, the 129 inbred mice are known for the high incidence of spontaneous testicular teratomas, though the incidence differs between substrains.(1-3% in 129 parental substrains; 30% in teratoma substrains.) More recently, 129 mice are widely used in the production of targeted mutations due to the availability of multiple embryonic stem cell lines derived from them. There is major genetic variation within the 129 "family", which has led to an update of the nomenclature and a division of the substrains into three major groups: parental substrains (129P), steel substrains (129S) and "teratoma" substrains (129T). Investigators using 129 substrains for targeted mutagenesis should be careful in the selection of the appropriate 129 substrain to match the embryonic stem cell line. For a complete history of the numerous 129 substrains, see Simpson, et al., 1997.

Repository- Live
For a complete history of the numerous 129 substrains please refer to Simpson, et al., 1997. Historically, the 129 inbred mice are known for the high incidence of spontaneous testicular teratomas, though the incidence differs between substrains. Most recently 129 mice are widely used strain in the production of targeted mutations due to the availability of several lines of embryonic stem cells. There is major genetic variation within the 129 "family", which has led to an update of the nomenclature and a division of substrains into three major groups: parental substrains, steel substrains and "ter" substrains. Investigators using 129 substrains for targeted mutagenesis should be careful in the selection of the appropriate 129 substrain to match the embryonic stem cell line.

100401 WCB6F1/J KitlSl KitlSl-d
Repository- Live
The multiple steel mutations (KitlSl) behave in a semidominant fashion and cause deficiencies in pigment cells, germ cells, and blood cells paralleling those caused by the Kit locus mutations (dominant spotting alleles). Many steel alleles cause severe anemia resulting in death in utero of homozygous mutant mice. However, mice homozygous for some steel mutations and compound heterozygotes for two steel alleles (e.g., KitlSl/KitlSl-d) are viable and have black eyes and a white coat; they have severe macrocytic anemia, and both sexes are usually sterile due to failure of germ cells to migrate correctly during development. Mice heterozygous for a single steel mutation have diluted coat color with a small amount of white spotting, are viable and fertile, and may have a slight macrocytic anemia. Primordial germ cells are absent in the nonviable steel homozygotes and severely reduced in steel heterozygotes. Mast cells are virtuall .....

Leroy Stevens reported that 96% (81 or 84) of 9XAM male genital ridges grafted to the testes of adults develop into testes with teratomas. Spontaneous teratomas were found in 1 of 187.

001079SWXJ9/BmJ
Research Strain
SWXJ-9 female mice develop ovarian granulosa cell carcinomas with an incidence of approximately 12% and a latency of 4-6 weeks. Tumor incidence can be increased to approximately 40% by treatment with dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) or testosterone immediately after weaning. Treatment with estradiol during this period completely suppresses tumorigenesis. Neoplasias are first observed as hemorrhagic follicles in which the antrum is blood-filled and lined with irregular masses of proliferating granulosa cells. By 6-10 weeks of age, the primary tumor encompasses the entire ovary. Metastases to lung, renal node, and liver are common by 6 to 9 months of age, with other sites occasionally affected. Susceptibility to granulosa cell carcinomas is controlled by a small number of genes, including a major susceptibility locus on Chromosome 4 and a major modifier locus on the X chromosome.
