[Chimeric drift in blood erythrocyte population in BALB/c----C57BL/10 and BALB----B10.D2 mice]. 1988

L M Fedorov, and B V Koniukhov

Genotypic composition of the erythrocyte population of peripheral blood in 16 aggregation chimeras: BALB/c (H-2dd)----C57BL/10(H-2bb) and BALB/c(H-2dd)----B10.D2(H-2dd) was studied during 10 months. The proportion of cells of parental components was defined visually in the coat and by electrophoresis of allozyme variants at the Gpi-1 locus in blood. The similar increase of blood cells percentage was observed in blood of both types of chimeras with age. In chimeras the skin grafts of both parental types survive. Chimeric drift is not caused by H-2 haplotypes differences between cells of two strains or disturbance of immunological tolerance in the chimeric mice. We propose that chimeric drift results from interaction of hemopoietic cells of different strains in early stages of hemopoiesis.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007108	Immune Tolerance	The specific failure of a normally responsive individual to make an immune response to a known antigen. It results from previous contact with the antigen by an immunologically immature individual (fetus or neonate) or by an adult exposed to extreme high-dose or low-dose antigen, or by exposure to radiation, antimetabolites, antilymphocytic serum, etc.	Immunosuppression (Physiology),Immunosuppressions (Physiology),Tolerance, Immune
D007527	Isoenzymes	Structurally related forms of an enzyme. Each isoenzyme has the same mechanism and classification, but differs in its chemical, physical, or immunological characteristics.	Alloenzyme,Allozyme,Isoenzyme,Isozyme,Isozymes,Alloenzymes,Allozymes
D008807	Mice, Inbred BALB C	An inbred strain of mouse that is widely used in IMMUNOLOGY studies and cancer research.	BALB C Mice, Inbred,BALB C Mouse, Inbred,Inbred BALB C Mice,Inbred BALB C Mouse,Mice, BALB C,Mouse, BALB C,Mouse, Inbred BALB C,BALB C Mice,BALB C Mouse
D008810	Mice, Inbred C57BL	One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.

D005956	Glucose-6-Phosphate Isomerase	An aldose-ketose isomerase that catalyzes the reversible interconversion of glucose 6-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate. In prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms it plays an essential role in glycolytic and gluconeogenic pathways. In mammalian systems the enzyme is found in the cytoplasm and as a secreted protein. This secreted form of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase has been referred to as autocrine motility factor or neuroleukin, and acts as a cytokine which binds to the AUTOCRINE MOTILITY FACTOR RECEPTOR. Deficiency of the enzyme in humans is an autosomal recessive trait, which results in CONGENITAL NONSPHEROCYTIC HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA.
