growth/size/body
• pups of the same sex measured weekly from 5-12 weeks of age weigh less than wild type controls at all time points

mortality/aging
N |
• Background Sensitivity: the number of homozygous pups produced from heterozygote matings on the BALB/c, 129S6/SvEvTac, 129S6B6F1, 129S6AF1 and B6AF1 backgrounds reaches the expected Mendelian ratio; fewer homozygous pups are produced on the C57BL/6 and A/J backgrounds
|
• median survival time is 113 days
• one mouse out of 40 survives to 18 months of age
• Background Sensitivity: survival time (least to most) on the following strain backgrounds is ranked as BALB/c < 129S6/SvEvTac < 129S6AF1 < 129S6B6F1 < C57BL/6 < A/J < B6AF1
|
neoplasm
• almost all mice die of thymic lymphomas
• Background Sensitivity: mice have a higher thymic lymphoma incidence than do homozygous Atmtm1Awb mice on the C57BL/6, B6AF1 and A/J backgrounds
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• almost all mice die of thymic lymphomas
• Background Sensitivity: mice have a higher thymic lymphoma incidence than do homozygous Atmtm1Awb mice on the C57BL/6, B6AF1 and A/J backgrounds
|
hematopoietic system
• almost all mice die of thymic lymphomas
• Background Sensitivity: mice have a higher thymic lymphoma incidence than do homozygous Atmtm1Awb mice on the C57BL/6, B6AF1 and A/J backgrounds
|
immune system
• almost all mice die of thymic lymphomas
• Background Sensitivity: mice have a higher thymic lymphoma incidence than do homozygous Atmtm1Awb mice on the C57BL/6, B6AF1 and A/J backgrounds
