Inbred Strains of Mice: STS
STSInbr (A) 100. Albino:
c.Origin: Muhlbock, from albino mice from the Hyg. Inst. Zurich in 1955.
CharacteristicsIn contrast with five other strains, STS is resistant to mammary tumour induction by hypophysial isografts (
van der Gugten et al 1985). No mammary tumours but lung tumours in both sexes; closely related to LIS/A and LTS/A. Leukosis 8% (
Hilgers and Galesloot, 1973). High preference for sweet tasting substances (saccharin, sucrose, dulcin and acesulfame, averaged) (3/26) (
Lush 1988). Carries an incomplete proviral genome of endogenous mammary tumour virus (MMTV) on the Y chromosome (c.f. 4/10) (
Nishikawa et al 1991). Higher proliferative response in the mixed lymphocyte culture than BALB/c when tested with cells from eleven other mouse strains with 10 MHC types (
Holan et al, 1996).
