Inbred Strains of Mice: SAMP1
SAMP1Inbr. F?+59 (1993). Origin: Dr. Toshio Takeda, Dept. of Senescence Biology, Chest Disease Research Institute, Kyoto University, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606, Japan, from AKR/J mice imported from J in 1968 and crossed (?) with mice of an unknown strain, followed by sib mating since 1975. Albino (
c). All SAMP mice have been defined at approx. 20 loci. There is only minor variation among the strains restricted to the
Idh1, Mod1and
Car2loci. The origin, history and characteristics of the SAM family of strains has been summarised by Takeda (1994), Higuchi (
1997) and Takeda et al (
1997).
CharacteristicsAll mice over 8 months show amyloid deposition of AApoAII protein (Higuchi et al 1986) due to an amino acid substitution in a precursor of apoA-II (
Yonezu et al 1987, Higuchi et al 1991). About 75% of mice over 10 months have kideny defects. Autoimmunity develops early in life (Yoshida et al 1989). There is an age-related increase in the frequency of chromosomal abberations in bone marrow cells (
Nisitani et al 1990). Strain has accelerated aging with median survival time of 374 days (
Takeda et al 1991).
