Appearance
black and tan, tufted
Related Genotype: a^t/a^t T⁺/T⁺ Itpr3^tf/Itpr3^tf

Description
BTBR mice exhibit a 100% absence of the corpus callosum and a severly reduced hippocampal commissure (Wahlsten D, 2003 Brain Res). This strain exhibits several symptoms of autism including: reduced social interactions, impaired play, low exploratory behavior, unusual vocalizations and high anxiety as compared to other inbred strains (McFarlane HG, 2008, Gen, Brain Behav; Moy SS, 2007, Behav Br Res, Scattoni ML, 2008, PLos).

Development
The BTBR T⁺ Itpr3^tf/J strain was derived from the inbred strain BTBR (Black and Tan BRachyury) that carried the mutations a^t(nonagouti; black and tan), Itpr3^tf (inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor 3; tufted), and T (brachyury). The BTBR strain was developed by L.C. Dunn from stock obtained from Dobrovolskaia-Zavadskaia. He brother-sister mated the stock at Columbia University and inserted tufted (Itpr3^tf) as a marker around 1956. The stock was continuously inbred in the laboratory of the late Dorothea Bennett from 1962 and then brought by Karen Atrzt in 1974 from the Bennett laboratory to the laboratory of Jean-Louis Guenet at the Institut Pasteur, who sent the strain in 1982 to the McArdle Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin. The T locus had been maintained in the strain as a segregating locus, but had been dropped sometime prior to the acquisition of the current strain by The Jackson Laboratory from Alexandra Shedlovsky and Bill Dove at the McArdle Laboratory in 1994.

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX^® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX^® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX^® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.

JAX^® Mice, Products & Services Conditions of Use

"MICE" means mouse strains, their progeny derived by inbreeding or crossbreeding, unmodified derivatives from mouse strains or their progeny supplied by The Jackson Laboratory ("JACKSON"). "PRODUCTS" means biological materials supplied by JACKSON, and their derivatives. "RECIPIENT" means each recipient of MICE, PRODUCTS, or services provided by JACKSON including each institution, its employees and other researchers under its control. MICE or PRODUCTS shall not be: (i) used for any purpose other than the internal research, (ii) sold or otherwise provided to any third party for any use, or (iii) provided to any agent or other third party to provide breeding or other services. Acceptance of MICE or PRODUCTS from JACKSON shall be deemed as agreement by RECIPIENT to these conditions, and departure from these conditions requires JACKSON's prior written authorization.

In case of dissatisfaction for a valid reason and claimed in writing by a purchaser within ninety (90) days of receipt of mice, products or services, JACKSON will, at its option, provide credit or replacement for the mice or product received or the services provided.

No Liability

In no event shall JACKSON, its trustees, directors, officers, employees, and affiliates be liable for any causes of action or damages, including any direct, indirect, special, or consequential damages, arising out of the provision of MICE, PRODUCTS or services, including economic damage or injury to property and lost profits, and including any damage arising from acts or negligence on the part of JACKSON, its agents or employees. Unless prohibited by law, in purchasing or receiving MICE, PRODUCTS or services from JACKSON, purchaser or recipient, or any party claiming by or through them, expressly releases and discharges JACKSON from all such causes of action or damages, and further agrees to defend and indemnify JACKSON from any costs or damages arising out of any third party claims.
