SNP genotyping was traditionally used to associate candidate regions with traits in the mouse, but failed to reveal novel variants without further targeted sequencing. Using a robust set of computational protocols, we present a platform to enable scientists to detect variants arising from whole-genome and exome sequencing experiments. This article guides researchers on aligning reads to the mouse genome, quality-assurance strategies, mutation discovery, comparing mutations to previously discovered mouse SNPs, and the annotation of novel variants, in order to predict mutation consequences on the protein level. Challenges unique to the mouse are discussed, and two protocols use self-contained containers to maintain version control and allow users to adapt our approach to new techniques by upgrading container versions. Our protocols are suited for servers or office workstations and are usable by non-bioinformatics specialists. © 2019 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.","PeriodicalId":37980,"journal":{"name":"Current protocols in mouse biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/cpmo.64","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41820641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we provide protocols on preparing mouse embryos and neonates between embryonic day 8.5 (E8.5) to postnatal day 4 (P4) for iodine-contrast microCT imaging. With the implementation of the STABILITY method to create a polymer-tissue hybrid structure, we have demonstrated that not only is soft tissue shrinkage minimized but also the minimum required time for soft tissue staining with iodine is decreased, especially for E18.5 to P4 samples. In addition, we also provide a protocol on using commercially available X-CLARITYTM hydrogel solution to create the similar polymer-tissue hybrid structure on delicate early post-implantation stage (E8.5 to E14.5) embryos. With its simple sample staining and mounting processes, this protocol is easy to adopt and implement for most of the commercially available, stand-alone microCT systems in order to study mouse development between early post-implantation to early postnatal stages. © 2019 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.","PeriodicalId":37980,"journal":{"name":"Current protocols in mouse biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/cpmo.63","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37330802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While curative approaches for early stage HCC exist, effective treatment options for advanced HCC are lacking. Furthermore, there are no efficient chemopreventive strategies to limit HCC development once cirrhosis is established. One challenge for drug development is unsatisfactory animal models. In this article, we describe an orthotopic xenograft mouse model of human liver cancer cell lines through image-guided injection into the liver. This technique provides a less invasive yet highly efficient approach to engraft human HCC into mouse liver. Similarly, image-guided injections are used to deliver chemotherapeutics locally, enabling reduction in potential systemic adverse effects, while reducing the required dose for a therapeutic effect. In summary, this image-guided strategy provides a novel and convenient approach to improve current HCC mouse models. © 2019 The Authors.

The lymph fistula model is an approach to assess the concentration and rate of a range of molecules transported by the lymph by cannulating lymph duct in animals. In this protocol, mice first undergo surgery with the implantation of cannulae in the duodenum and mesenteric lymph duct and are allowed to recover overnight in Bollman restraining cages housed in a temperature-regulated environment. To study in vivo lipid absorption, a lipid emulsion is prepared with labeled tracers, including [3H]-triolein and [14C]-cholesterol. On the day of the experiment, mice are continuously infused with lipid emulsion via the duodenum for 6 hr, and lymph is usually collected hourly. At the end of the study, gastrointestinal segments and their luminal contents are collected separately for determination of the digestion, uptake, and transport of exogenous lipids. © 2019 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.","PeriodicalId":37980,"journal":{"name":"Current protocols in mouse biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/cpmo.60","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36996501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
