Diet effects on gallstone formation, liver pathology, plasma lipids, and pathogen-accelerated atherosclerosis in 8 obesity mutant mouse strains
All animals were fed a high-fat (15% fat) diet for 8 wks. Blood chemistry and cholesterol were measured.
After sac, a pathology review of livers and gallbladders was conducted.
Study design:
all mice subjected to an intervention;
1 cohort.
8 strains tested
Test age:
15-19wks

| Note |
Mice were housed in a non-barrier facility during the acclimation and
testing periods. Three pathogens were detected during this time:
Pneumocystis, Pasturella, and Helicobacter. Pathogen-accelerated
atherosclerosis was observed in these studies.
These results are in
contrast to a similar study conducted in a pathogen-free facility
(Paigen2).
Similar data are available for 43 inbred strains also tested by these
investigators; see
Paigen1
(identical C57BL/6J and C57BLKS/J data are present in both data sets).
This project includes a collection of browsable
liver pathology images.
