Genetic resistance to marrow transplantation as a leukemia defense mechanism. 1976

M T Gallagher, and E Lotzová, and J J Trentin

(C57 X AKR) F1 hybrid mice show genetic resistance to C57 parental bone marrow cells, but not to AKR parental bone marrow cells. (C3H X AKR) F1 hybrids show no genetic resistance to bone marrow transplantation from either parental strain. Transplantation of AKR lymphoma cells into lethally irradiated "resistant" (C57 X AKR) F1 and "non-resistant" (C3H X AKR) F1 hybrids produce lymphomatous spleen colonies in "non-resistant" hybrids but not in "resistant" hybrids. Thus "resistant" (C57 X AKR) F1 hybrids can recognize and reject AKR lymphoma cells, but not normal AKR bone marrow cells. A normal biological role of lymphoma surveillance is postulated for genetic resistance.

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.
