Ordering name: FGS/NgaJcl
Nomenclature: FGS/NgaJcl
Availability:Cryopreserved
Not genetically modified animal
The strain was found from F5 CBA/Nga and RFM/Nga mating group at Nagoya University agriculture department domestic animal thremmatology study. It was named FGS (Focal Glomerular Sclerosis) due to its high urine protein and focal glomerular sclerosis.
This strain shows high albuminuria symptom, which is started to 6 week of age and increased until 11 to 12 week of age but there is some individual difference. Pathologically, there are some glomerular sclerosis and atrophy and lesion mix of seemed like mesangium cell proliferative and focal sclerosing glomerulonephritis.
Genetically, it may be controlled under 2 pair of euchromosome recessive gene.
