NONcNZO10/LtJ Mouse
NONcNZO10/LtJ is a recombinant congenic strain to model human obesity-induced Type 2 diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome. Type 2 diabetes in males of this strain results from polygenic interactions producing a moderate obesity rather than the massive obesity elicited by mutations in the leptin/leptin receptor axis. Unlike mice with monogenic obesity syndromes, NONcNZO10/LtJ males do not exhibit hypercorticism, are not hyperphagic, and show no obvious thermoregulatory defects.
