- W4378674503 abstract "In recent years, UM-HET3 mice have become more commonly used in biomedical research. UM-HET3 mice are an outbred, genetically diverse strain of mice that is produced by crossing four inbred strains: BALB/cByJ, C57BL/6J, C3H/HeJ, and DBA/2J. Notably, the UM-HET3 strain is used by the National Institute on Aging Interventions Testing Program to investigate treatments that may extend lifespan and delay disease/dysfunction, while minimizing the impact of strain-specific phenotypes that might be observed in inbred, genetically identical strains like the C57BL/6J strain of mice. Here, we sought to examine phenotypic differences between age-matched male and female inbred, C57BL/6J and outbred, UM-HET3 mice (age: 6.4±0.0 mo, n=16 [8M/8F] per group). UM-HET3 had a greater body mass (C57BL/6J: 27±1 vs. UM-HET3: 32±1 g, P<0.05) and tibial length (C57BL/6J: 18.1±0.2 vs. UM-HET3: 19.6±0.3 mm, P<0.05) than C57BL/6J mice. Despite larger body stature, UM-HET3 mice had lower fasting blood glucose (C57BL/6J: 192±6 vs. UM-HET3: 168±5 mg/dL, P<0.05) and lower glucose area under the curve (AUC) in response to glucose tolerance testing (C57BL/6J: 34±1 vs. UM-HET3: 28±2 AU, P<0.05). On the contrary, there were no strain-related differences in glucose AUC in response to insulin tolerance testing (C57BL/6J: 14±1 vs. UM-HET3: 14±1 AU, P>0.05). We also observed no differences in systolic blood pressure (C57BL/6J: 115±2 vs. UM-HET3: 114±2 mmHg, P>0.05), although aortic stiffness, determined by pulse wave velocity (PWV), was lower in UM-HET3 compared to C57BL/6J mice (C57BL/6J: 309±5 vs. UM-HET3: 255±4 cm/sec, P<0.05). Endothelium-dependent dilation (EDD), determined by ex vivo maximal carotid artery dilation to acetylcholine (ACh), was lower in C57BL/6J compared to UM-HET3 (C57BL/6J: 84±2 vs. UM-HET3: 90±1%, P<0.05). In the presence of the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, L-NAME, maximal dilation to ACh was similar between groups (C57BL/6J: 38±4 vs. UM-HET3: 34±4%, P>0.05). Thus, NO-mediated dilation, determined by subtracting ACh+L-NAME maximal dilation from ACh maximal dilation, was higher in UM-HET3 compared to C57BL/6J mice (C57BL/6J: 45±3 vs. UM-HET3: 57±4%, P<0.05). We observed no differences in endothelium-independent dilation, determined by ex vivo maximal dilation to sodium nitroprusside (C57BL/6J: 87±1 vs. UM-HET3: 90±2%, P>0.05). In summary, C57BL/6J mice appear to be smaller in stature, but with worse glucose handling, as indicated by impaired fasting glucose and glucose tolerance, compared to UM-HET3 mice. There are also strain differences in arterial function, as aortic stiffness was higher and EDD was lower in C57BL/6J compared to UM-HET3 mice. Strain differences in EDD appear to be due to a reduction in NO-mediated dilation in C57BL/6J mice. Collectively, these data suggest that there are phenotypic differences between these strains, indicating worse metabolic and arterial function in inbred, C57BL/6J compared to outbred, UM-HET3 mice.
