Quantitative trait loci analysis for the differences in susceptibility to atherosclerosis and diabetes between inbred mouse strains C57BL/6J and C57BLKS/J

Mice from the inbred strain C57BLKS/J (BKS) exhibit increased susceptibility to both diabetes and atherosclerosis compared to C57BL/6J (B6) mice. To determine whether the differences in diabetes and atherosclerosis are related, we carried out a cross between B6-db/db and BKS. We selected 99 female F...
