Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE: Quantitative trait locus mapping of an intercross between C57.Apoe⁻/⁻ and FVB.Apoe⁻/⁻ mice revealed an atherosclerosis locus controlling aortic root lesion area on proximal chromosome 10, Ath11. In a previous work, subcongenic analysis showed Ath11 to be complex with proximal (10a) and distal (10b) regions. OBJECTIVE: To identify the causative genetic variation underlying the atherosclerosis modifier...
