Find Mice

Using the International Mouse Strain Resource (IMSR)
Mouse lines carrying:
Ldlr^tm1(LDLR)Mae mutation (2 available); any Ldlr mutation (81 available)

♀	phenotype observed in females
♂	phenotype observed in males
N	normal phenotype

homeostasis/metabolism

abnormal circulating lipid level ( J:67282 )

• decrease in plasma lipid levels that is accompanied by reduction in plasma apoproteins B, E, and AI

decreased circulating cholesterol level ( J:67282 )

• females exhibit a 4-fold reduction in steady state plasma cholesterol when fed normal chow

• when fed a high fat diet, plasma cholesterol levels increase due mainly to the increase in HDL cholesterol, although levels are still lower than in wild-type on a high fat diet

decreased circulating HDL cholesterol level ( J:67282 )

homeostasis/metabolism

abnormal lipid homeostasis ( J:67282 )

• exhibit increased clearance of non-HDL lipoproteins (VLDL and LDL) from plasma

decreased susceptibility to hyperlipidemia ( J:67282 )
