tg1

• Allelic Composition: Tg(KRT18*R89C)50Rgo/0
• Genetic Background: involves: FVB/N

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

liver/biliary system

abnormal liver vasculature morphology ( J:241700 )

• livers show increased prominence of the vascular subcapsular markings, with appearance of a punctate pattern rather than a meshwork vascular pattern, in mice older than 6 months

liver hemorrhage ( J:241700 )

• scattered bleeding into necrotic and nonnecrotic liver areas with age

chronic liver inflammation ( J:241700 )

• liver shows a mononuclear chronic inflammatory infiltrate which is nonregionalized and patchy with areas of necrosis

• however, Mallory body formation is not seen, and no differences in white cell, platelet, or red blood cell counts or other serum chemistry are seen

abnormal hepatocyte morphology ( J:241700 )

• collagenase liver perfusion of young mice at an early stage when inflammation and necrosis are mild results in significant cell death indicating hepatocyte fragility

hepatic necrosis ( J:241700 )

• necrosis and bleeding into necrotic and nonnecrotic areas becomes highly prominent with age

homeostasis/metabolism

increased circulating alanine transaminase level ( J:241700 )

• elevation in serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase

increased circulating aspartate transaminase level ( J:241700 )

• elevation in serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase

cardiovascular system

abnormal liver vasculature morphology ( J:241700 )

• livers show increased prominence of the vascular subcapsular markings, with appearance of a punctate pattern rather than a meshwork vascular pattern, in mice older than 6 months

liver hemorrhage ( J:241700 )

• scattered bleeding into necrotic and nonnecrotic liver areas with age

immune system

chronic liver inflammation ( J:241700 )

• liver shows a mononuclear chronic inflammatory infiltrate which is nonregionalized and patchy with areas of necrosis

• however, Mallory body formation is not seen, and no differences in white cell, platelet, or red blood cell counts or other serum chemistry are seen
