Identification of quantitative trait loci that regulate obesity and serum lipid levels in MRL/MpJ × SJL/J inbred mice

The total body fat mass and serum concentration of total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglyceride (TG) differ between standard diet-fed female inbred mouse strains MRL/MpJ (MRL) and SJL/J (SJL) by 38–120% (P < 0.01). To investigate genetic regulation of obesity and serum lipid levels, we pe...
