Animal Model NODCaj.Cg-Igh-6tm1Cgn Tg(Igh-VB1-8/Igh-6m)2Mjsk/FswJ

Abstract

Transgenic mice carrying the Igh-6tm1Cgn allele are viable, fertile, and normal in size and restores the B220+ B-cells. The number of B-cells is reduced and the ratio of CD4 to CD8 is normal. Although only a fraction of the transgenic mice have an increased amount of insulitis, it is significantly more severe, especially in males. No diabetes was observed in NODCaj.Cg-Igh-6tm1Cgn Tg(Igh-VB1-8/Igh-6 )2Mjsk/Fsw mice by 50 weeks of age.
This model serves as a control for the membrane bound, non-secreted, NODCaj.Cg-Igh-6tm1Cgn Tg(Igh-VB1-8/Igh-6m)1Mjsk/FswJ (stock# 5306).
