Mapping and Phenotype information for this QTL, its variants and associated markers

J:144089

Linkage analysis was performed on 528 animals from a (C57BL/6J x 129S1/SvImJ)F2 intercross to map QTL associated with plasma HDL levels on either a CHOW or atherogenic diet. F2 animals were fed a CHOW diet until 8 weeks of age and then placed on an atherogenic diet until 16 weeks of age. An array of 508 SNPs was used for genome scan. Plasma HDL is significantly higher in 129S1/SvImJ parental strain compared to C57BL/7J on CHOW and high fat diets, with a stronger effect observed in males compared to females. Several previously identified HDL QTL were detected in this study as well as several novel loci, some of which showed interactive effects.

Interaction was observed between Hdlq15 on mouse Chromosome 1 and a novel locus on mouse Chromosome 7 named Hdlq58 (HDL QTL 58). Homozygosity for 129S1/SvImJ-derived alleles at Hdlq15 and homozygosity for C57BL/6J-derived alleles at Hdlq58 confer significantly increased plasma HDL levels in male and female animals on CHOW diet. Hdlq58 did not display influence on HDL cholesterol as a single locus.
