Zusammenfassung

To date, employing quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, we have identified 16 loci that harbor cholesterol gallstone (GS) susceptibility genes (Lith loci) in inbred mice. We previously reported QTL mapping in two separate crosses of gallstone-susceptible PERA/Ei mice with each of the resistant strains I/LnJ and DBA/2J. Here, we re-analyzed the combined data based on a new binary allelic model. After consumption of a lithogenic diet, F2 offspring of PERA x I/Ln and PERA x DBA/2 crosses were phenotyped for GS weight and a scoring system for cholelithiasis. Progeny were genotyped using PCR amplification of micro…
