Diseases
Neoplastic (Spontaneous)
- Very low mammary tumor incidence. (680)
Neoplastic (Induced)
- In comparison with other inbred strains, C57BL/10 is resistant to Gross, Bittner,
Friend S and B viruses, and relatively resistant to Tennant virus. (370)
Non-Neoplastic (Induced)
- Relatively resistant to induction of cleft palate by cortisone. (067)
Other Characteristics
Immunologic
- Macrophages from BDG-infected, LPS-unresponsive C57BL/10ScCR mice were not tumoricidal
in vitro, but cells from BCG-infected LPS-responsive C57BL/10Sn from Jackson lab
were. (608)
- High interferon serum levels after induction by Newcastle disease virus. (696)
Physiologic
- High resting plasma steroid levels, and responds to acute stress by prolonged elevation.
(398)
Behavioral
- High preference for ethanol and for morphine presented in a saccharine vehicle.
