Find Mice Using the International Mouse Strain Resource (IMSR)
Mouse lines carrying:
KitW-sh mutation (11 available); any Kit mutation (179 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
immune system
• in a model of passive systemic anaphylaxis, mice sensitized i.p. with anti-DNP IgE and challenged with DNP-HAS fail to exhibit induction of hypothermia at 50 min after antigen challenge

homeostasis/metabolism
• when sensitized i.p. with anti-DNP IgE and challenged i.p. with DNP-HAS, mice exhibit lack of a mast cell-dependent anaphylactic response with no significant drop in body core temperature noted at 50 min post-challenge

phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
immune system
• following chloroquine treatment
• mice are described as being mast cell deficient
• after second infestation to ticks, mice fail to exhibit resistance (repletion) unlike similarly treated wild-type mice
• however, transfer of wild-type bone marrow restores repletion

pigmentation
• the coat is white except for small patches on or near the ears and, infrequently, at the base of the tail

behavior/neurological
• mice exhibit reduced chloroquine-induced scratching compared with similarly treated wild-type mice

hematopoietic system
• following chloroquine treatment
• on this background,lower than normal mean hematocrit values were found but did not manifest as an anemia
• mice are described as being mast cell deficient

integument
• the coat is white except for small patches on or near the ears and, infrequently, at the base of the tail

cellular
• following chloroquine treatment
