Abstract excerpt
Systemic lupus erythematosus is inherited as a complex polygenic trait. Four genomic intervals containing major SLE-susceptibility loci were previously identified by interval mapping in the NZM2410 mouse model. In this paper, we utilized a marker-assisted selection protocol to produce four congenic mouse strains, each carrying an NZM2410-derived SLE-susceptibility interval on a C57BL/6-resistant background. Each...
