Apoetm2(APOE*3)Mae targeted mutation 2, Nobuyo Maeda MGI:2157240 |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Summary |
6 genotypes
|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
|
• mice travel more in an open field during the habituation and acquisition phase than do Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae mice
• particularly females
• females become slightly less active in testing phase
• no longer significantly more active in the retention phase and females clearly less active
|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
|
• aged (65-127 weeks) mutants fed a high-fat diet exhibit minor retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) changes such as RPE vacuolization

|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
|
• lesion size half that in Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae after 3 months on an atherogenic diet
|
|
• small plaques, typically an accumulation of several foam cells are seen in 4 of 11 females aged 10-12 months; considerably less severe than seen in Apoetm1(APOE)Mae homozygotes
|
|
• after 12 weeks on a high fat/high cholesterol diet, develop significantly larger atherosclerotic plaques in the aortic sinus area than wild-type, indicating increased susceptibility to dietary-induced atherosclerosis
|
|
• normal total cholesterol and triglyceride levels in fasted plasma when maintained on normal low fat chow diet, however show a difference in the distribution of plasma lipoproteins and apolipoprotein E
• beta-migrating lipoproteins (LDL) and plasma apoB100 levels are decreased and the apoE distribution is shifted from high density lipoproteins to larger lipoprotein particles
• the fractional catabolic rate of exogenously administered remnant particles in the beta-VLDL range without apoE is 6-fold slower than in wild-type
|
|
• fasted mutants show an increase in pre-beta-migrating lipoproteins (VLDL) and absence of beta-migrating particles (LDL)
|
|
• seen in fasted mice on a normal low fat chow diet
|
|
• relative to Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae regardless of diet
• decreased cholesterol/fatty acid ratio on a normal diet relative to Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae
• decreased diameter of VLDL particles relative to Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae
• increased clearance of Apoe deficient VLDL relative to Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae
|
|
• on a high fat/high cholesterol diet, show a 5-fold increase in total cholesterol compared to a 1.5-fold increase in wild-type, indicating increased susceptibility to dietary-induced hypercholesterolemia
|
|
• relative to Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae regardless of diet
|
|
• on a high fat/high cholesterol diet, triglyceride levels are reduced to a smaller extent (18% vs. 50% in wild-type) than in wild-type
|
|
• relative to Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae regardless of diet
|
|
• in the HDL fraction relative to Apoetm3(APOE*4)Mae regardless of diet
|
|
• in response to lipopolysaccharide injection with a minimum after 3 hours
|
|
• in response to lipopolysaccharide injection with a minimum after 1 hour
|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
|
• very little plaque development
|
|
• significantly lower lipid levels on a normal fat diet
|
|
• very little plaque development
|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
|
• increased number of neuroreactive microglia in cortex
• decreased number of neuroreactive microglia in thalamic region
|
|
• plaque deposition in cortical parenchyma increased 20%
• reduced deposition in cerebral microvasculature
• microglia are tightly associated with parenchymal plaque amyloid
|
|
• increased number of neuroreactive astrocytes in cortex
• decreased number of neuroreactive astrocytes in thalamic region
