Analysis of host genetic control of scrapie-induced obesity.

Archives of virology - 1 Jan 1993

Carp R I, Callahan S M, Yu Y, Sersen E

Abstract excerpt

The potential for induction of obesity during the preclinical phase of scrapie disease in mice was previously shown to be a function of both the strain of scrapie and the strain of inbred mouse. In the present study, host control of obesity induction by a scrapie strain was examined to determine if the effect were dependent on a single gene or multiple genes. The approach used was assessment of the pattern of...
