Entry term(s) ratones consanguíneos MRL lpr
Scope note: Subcepa de ratones con predisposición genética al desarrollo de un síndrome semejante al lupus eritematoso sistémico, que se ha visto que es clínicamente similar a la enfermedad humana. Se ha determinado que esta cepa de ratones posee una mutación en el gen fas. También, el MRL/lpr es un modelo útil para estudiar los defectos cognitivos y de conducta encontrados en las enfermedades autoinmunes así como la eficiencia de los agentes inmunosupresores.

Scope note: A mouse substrain that is genetically predisposed to the development of systemic lupus erythematosus-like syndrome, which has been found to be clinically similar to the human disease. It has been determined that this mouse strain carries a mutation in the fas gene. Also, the MRL/lpr is a useful model to study behavioral and cognitive deficits found in autoimmune diseases and the efficacy of immunosuppressive agents.
