"We tried so many shelters, and we were like rejected. It's like, it's not for migrants, it's not for migrants!” Lebanon is caught in a devastating conflict between the Israeli army and Hezbollah, a powerful Shia Muslim political party and armed group. Critical infrastructure, including hospitals, residential buildings, and shelters, has been destroyed, displacing over a million people across the country. Among those most affected are Lebanon's roughly 250,000 migrant domestic workers, primarily from African and Asian countries including Ethiopia, Bangladesh, and Sierra Leone. Many of these workers, who were already living in precarious conditions under the Kafala system which leaves them heavily reliant on their employers, have now been made homeless and are desperately seeking shelter, food, and safety. For Africa Daily, Muthoni Muchiri speaks with Mariam Bai Sesay, a former domestic worker and Enu, the deputy director of Egna Legna Besidet, an organisation that provides legal aid, housing assistance, and food relief to the workers.

L'actualité est de plus en plus intense en matière de drone. A l'heure où je vous parle, nous sommes dans la phase 2 de l'exercice interarmées ORION (« O2 ») qui mobilise jusqu'à 7 000 militaires de l'ensemble des armées, sur 14 départements du sud de la France. Ceci est consécutif au déclenchement de l'Échelon national d'urgence (ENU), qui a débuté le 9 février 2023. Mais l'ORION, c'est aussi un drone ... un drone un peu particulier, puisqu'il Tethered, autrement dit « attaché » ou « Filaire » en français. Il est destiné à la sécurité, qu'elle soit civile ou militaire ... Quoi de plus naturel que de se rapprocher de l'équipe de la société ELISTAIR, concepteur du drone ORION. Et pour en parler nous recevons aujourd'hui, Monsieur Guilhem de Marliave cofondateur de la société ELISTAIR
Hz. Havva, Hz. Şit (a.s.)'a hâmile olunca, alnında parıldamağa başlayan nûr, Hz. Şit (a.s.)'ı doğurduğu zaman, onun alnına geçmişti. Âdem (a.s.) bundan, Hz. Şit (a.s.)'ın kendisinden sonra yerini tutacağını anlamıştı. Şit (a.s.)'ın alnında parlayan Peygamberlik nûru zevcesine, oğlu Enuş doğduğu zaman Enuş'un alnına, ondan da, oğlu Kaynan'ın alnına geçmiş, asırlar boyunca, alından alına geçip durmuş ve nihâyet, Abdulmuttalib'den Abdullâh'a, ondan da, Peygamber (s.a.v.)'e geçip son temelli sahibinde karar kılmıştır. Rivâyete göre peygamberlerden, ümmeti helâk olan peygamber, Mekke'ye gelir, orada, Allâh (c.c.)'a, ibâdete koyulur, kendisi ve yanında bulunanlar, vefâtlarına kadar orada kalırlardı. Nitekim Nuh, Hûd, Salih ve Şuayb (a.s.e.) de, Mekke'de vefât etmişlerdir. Bunların, kabirleri, zemzem kuyusu ile Hacerülesved rüknü arasındadır. Zemzem ile rükün arasında yetmiş peygamber diğer bir rivâyete göre de hacca gelip vefât eden peygamberlerden orada 99 peygamber gömülüdür.” Âyet-i kerîmede “O halde (Resûlüm), peygamberlerden azim sahibi olanların sabrettiği gibi sen de sabret!” (Ahkaf s. 35) buyrulur. Burada zikredilen Ulû'l-azm sahibi Peygamberler rivâyete göre: 1. Nûh (a.s.) 2. İbrahim (a.s.) 3. Mûsâ (a.s.) 4. İsâ (a.s.) 5. Peygamber (s.a.v.)'dir. Bir hadîs-i şerîfe göre de peygamberlerin seyyidleri de, Nuh, İbrahim, Mûsâ, İsâ (a.s.e.) ve Hz. Muhammed (s.a.v.) olmak üzere beştir. Hz. Peygamber (s.a.v.) ise, bu beşin seyyididir. Kıyâmet gününde de, âdemoğullarının seyyidi O (s.a.v.)'dir. Öncekilerin ve sonrakilerin Kıyâmet gününde Hâmd sancağı, O (s.a.v.)'e verilecektir. O gün, peygamberlerin imâmı, hatîbi ve şefâat sahibi O (s.a.v.) olacak ve bütün peygamberler onun sancağı altında toplanacaktır. (M. Asım Köksal, Peygamberler Tarihi, c.1, s.12-68)

Explodierende Energiepreise und die Teuerungswelle lassen Menschen kreativ werden: In vielen Wohnungen werden alte Schwedenöfen und Kamine befeuert, die schon lange kein Rauchfangkehrer mehr inspiziert hat. Social Media motiviert sogar zu Heizungen der „Marke Eigenbau“ – etwa Teelichtöfen. Doch ob diese Öfen wirklich günstiger sind, berechnet in dieser Folge Tino Blondiau, Energieberater bei eNu. Gefährlicher sind sie jedoch mit Sicherheit. Thomas Docekal, Leiter der Ausbildung im Feuerwehr- und Sicherheitszentrum Niederösterreich, spricht von entzündbaren Wachsdämpfen und Kohlenmonoxidvergiftungen. Außerdem zu Gast ist Matthias Vetiska, Feuerwehrmann und stellvertretender Landesinnungsmeister der Rauchfangkehrer. Er beschreibt, wann ein Ofen eigentlich „sicher“ ist, was bei einem Kaminbrand zu tun ist und welche Überraschungen er in seinem Berufsalltag schon erlebt hat.
"Technology for a lot of people can be an avoidance of discomfort." —Sebastian Slovin Since Sebastian Slovin can remember, nature has been a central part of his life. He was fortunate to grow up in the beach community of La Jolla, California and spent his childhood exploring both the land and the sea. As a young boy, he lost his father to suicide, which would deeply inspire his path in life. As a young adult, he had the opportunity to travel extensively and experience many of the world's great surf spots as a professional bodyboarder. He holds a BA in Environmental Policy from San Diego State University and an MA in Leadership Studies from the University of San Diego. He is also the author of The Adventures of Enu, Ashes in the Ocean, and Experience Nature Unplugged: A Guide to Wellness in the Digital Age. In 2012, Sebastian and his wife, Sonya, founded Nature Unplugged with the mission of inspiring wellness in the digital age. They have since developed a unique curriculum to help individuals, families, educators and organizations break free from the clutches of technology overuse and reconnect with nature.

There is a growing scientific field called “ecotherapy” that has demonstrated a strong connection between time spent outside in nature and improved well-being. Shifting our attention to the sounds, smells, and beauty is calming for many. On brain scans we can actually see reduced activity in. the parts of the brain that are linked to rumination — or repetitive negative thoughts. In this episode, I speak with Sebastian Slovin, author of Experience Nature Unplugged: A Guide to Wellness in the Digital Age, a new book on how connecting with nature helps reset our brains. We discuss the ways our digital lives are negatively impacting our mental health and how nature is the perfect antidote.About Sebastian SlovinSince Sebastian can remember, nature has been a central part of his life. He was fortunate to grow up in the beach community of La Jolla, California and spent his childhood mixing it up in the ocean. As a young boy, he lost his father to suicide, which would deeply inspire his path in life. As a young adult, he had the opportunity to travel extensively and experience many of the world's great surf spots as a professional bodyboarder. Through his travel, Sebastian developed a deep love and appreciation for our natural world and at the same time was drawn to the practice of yoga and mindfulness. His passion for nature led him to pursue a BA in Environmental Policy at San Diego State University. He also holds an MA in Leadership Studies from the University of San Diego. He is the author of The Adventures of Enu, Ashes in the Ocean, and Experience Nature Unplugged: A Guide to Wellness in the Digital Age. He and his wife, Sonya, founded Nature Unplugged, which is all about inspiring wellness in the digital age. When he is not writing or working on Nature Unplugged, Sebastian enjoys swimming, surfing and (pretty much all things) in the wild Pacific Ocean.
Fabian arbeitet als Pipeline TD in der Visual Effects Industrie und hat uns gefragt, ob wir Interesse hätten, uns mal mit diesem Thema zu beschäftigen. Wir fanden die Idee super, denn uns (Dominik und Jochen) war gar nicht klar, dass dort inzwischen auch eine Menge Python eingesetzt wird. Daher haben wir dazu jetzt einfach mal eine Episode mit Fabian aufgenommen :). Wenn ihr auch ein Thema habt, über das ihr gern mal mit uns sprechen würdet, schreibt einfach eine Mail an die Mailadresse in den Shownotes. Wahrscheinlich gibt es eine Menge Anwendungen für Python, von denen wir noch nie etwas gehört haben.

¡Volvemos! Volvemos después de 14 semanas sin publicar.A mí se me ha hecho algo más corto (8 semanas), porque empecé a preparar episodios a finales de marzo.Para compensar un poco, los episodios de mayo duran un poco más de lo normal.Pero tranquilos, que mi idea sigue siendo hacer episodios de 20-30 minutos.Tenemos alguna novedades que iremos contando. Hexagon saca su propio google maps para uso profesional En enero, Hexagon lanzó la beta de HxDR (Hexagon Digital Reality)https://hxdr.com/Hexagon es la matriz de Leica.Servicio en la nube con una interfaz muy parecida a Google Maps 3D.Viene con un catálogo de ciudades ya escaneadas.Pagas una suscripción y obtienes:Licencias de Ciudades 3DAutomesh para Captura de RealidadCreación de Tours 3D que se pueden compartirLocalizaciones con fotoesferasInserción de modelos 3D para poder verlos en el contexto de la ciudad o el barrio.Es privado. Puedes elegir quién tiene acceso a tus mapas y modelos.Muy potente, la calidad de los 3D parece superior a la de los mapas de Google.En el futuro esperan incorporar funciones de gestión de "smartcities":Modelar, simular y visualizar un sistema de ciudad inteligente que incluya la vigilancia de activos, el modelado ambiental y la visualización en tiempo real de datos en 3D.Miren el vídeo porque impresiona. Esto le pone cara a lo que podría ser la gestión de smartcities por personal no técnico. Costa Rica lanza su estrategía BIM En febrero se publicó la Estratégia Nacional BIM Costa Rica.Después de Chile, Perú y Argentina, se suma el primer país de Centroamérica a poner por escrito una estrategía nacional de implementación BIM.27 páginas elaboradas por:Ministerio de Planificación Nacional y Política Económica.División de Competitividad, Tecnología e Innovación, BID.Ministerio de Obras Públicas y Transporte.Ministerio de la Presidencia.https://documentos.mideplan.go.cr/share/s/MOQwz7ifQI6vwczIxnFldwEstrategía basada en 7 puntos:Planificación y coordinación: elaborar el Plan BIM Costa Rica, un documento de gobernanza e integrar comités de trabajo.Capacidades asociadas: Promover el desarrollo de capacidades asociadas a la metodología BIM en los distintos actores de los sectores público,académico y privado.Factores habilitantes: infraestructura tecnológica, conectividad y capacidades para la innovación.Monitoreo nivel de madurez: realizar un diagnóstico de línea base y medición de madurez periódica.Creación de experiencia y elementos demostrativos.Marco normativo: crear el estándar nacional BIM y otras normativas necesarias para introducir BIM en los carteles de contratación pública.Comunicación y difusión: elaborar una estrategia de comunicación y diseminación de la metodología BIM en Costa Rica.Para llevar a cabo estas 7 acciones se han dado de plazo hasta 2024.Hay que recordar que esto es una estrategia general no un plan detallado, que es lo que van a empezar a hacer ahora. El Coronavirus se covierte en una pandemia mundial. En marzo, este virus llegaba a muchos países del mundo.Estamos sufriendo una pandemia mundial. En España está siendo un verdadero drama, aunque parece que lo peor ya ha pasado.https://www.ted.com/talks/bill_gates_the_next_outbreak_we_re_not_ready?language=esLa mayoría de la población lo único que tenemos que hacer es quedarnos en casa, que no supone nada, en comparación con lo que están viviendo algunos sectores como el sanitario, seguridad, alimentación, etc.En mi caso, vivo en Madrid, epicentro en España, y llevo sin salir de casa desde el 11 de marzo. 54 días cuando se publica este episodio. El lado positivo El confinamiento nos está obligando a salir de nuestra zona de confort tecnológica, tanto en el ámbito personal como laboral.De repente hay niños (y profes) que si pueden dar clase en remoto y hacer tarea en una tablet. Quizás esto sea el comienzo de un cambio en el sistema educativo:Aprender la teoría en casa con un videotutorial con la mejor explicación posible, acompañado de juegos y tests, y luego ir al cole a hacer la tarea y resolver dudas con un profe real que tiene todas las estadísticas de lo que ha hecho cada alumno en su casa.Esto ya existe, y esta es la mejor charla TED que he visto en mi vida, me emociono de verdad cada vez que la veo:https://www.ted.com/talks/sal_khan_let_s_use_video_to_reinvent_education?language=eshttps://es.khanacademy.org/También hemos visto a nuestros abuelos instalando el Zoom en sus tablets y participando en videoconferencias grupales.Miles de personas haciendo la compra online, que después del confinamiento no van a volver a hacerla en persona.Antes del confinamiento en España había un 8% de teletrabajo, (poco comparado con la media europea 17%, o el más del 30% de los países escandinavos).Según Randstad (consultora de RRHH), En España podrían trabajar como máximo el 22% de la población ocupada.Aqui los sectores de la agricultura, turismo y hostelería son muy fuertes.Pero sólo 1 de cada 3 empleados que puede hacer teletrabajo, lo hace de verdad.Ahora no hay datos, pero está claro que todo el que puede hacer teletrabajo, lo está haciendo.La contaminación en Madrid capital, ha bajado un 60%, estamos en niveles del año 2001.Y no es lo ideal porque ha sido de repente, los niños no tienen colegio, y no podemos salir a despejarnos.Pero está sirviendo para que muchos vean que es posible, que no pasa nada, y que una reunión por Teams, es incluso más efectiva que una en persona.En mi empresa, por ejemplo, había empleados que llevábamos un año usando Teams, pero éramos un grupo reducido, los frikis tecnológicos.Ahora toda la empresa lo usa para chatear, videoconferencia, reuniones online, incluso con externos.Y cuando se acabe el confinamiento, reservar una sala libre, esperar a que todos lleguen, tener que conectarse al proyector en lugar de compartir pantalla, etc les va a dar mucha pereza.En definitiva, cambios culturales para los que en circunstancias normales necesitaríamos años, los estamos consiguiendo en semanas. Y cuando volvamos a la normalidad, todo lo que nos ha facilitado la vida lo vamos a querer mantener.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous “yes.” The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. “Now,” said the professor as the laughter subsided, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things–your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions–and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car. The sand is everything else–the small stuff. “If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued, “there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you. “Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first–the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.” One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. “I’m glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.”

According to recent epidemiological studies, primary aldosteronism is considered to be responsible for almost 10-15% of all cases of arterial hypertension. The genetic background of this common disease, however, has been elucidated only for the rare familial types whereas in the large majority of sporadic cases genetic causes or modifiers still remain unclear. In an attempt to define novel genetic mechanisms of hyperaldosteronism we utilized a random mutagenesis screen after treatment with the alkylating agent N-ethylnitrosourea (ENU) and phenotypically characterized affected mice for their blood aldosterone levels. As the detection method we used a time resolved fluorescent immunoassay which allows the measurement of aldosterone in very small murine plasma volumes. Using this assay we determined the normal aldosterone values for C3HeB/FeJ wild type mice under baseline conditions and following specific stimulation and suppression tests. We could demonstrate the expected increase in aldosterone response upon ACTH stimulation, a high potassium diet and an angiotensin II injection, as well as the decrease after a dexamethasone suppression test, a normal saline load test and a fludrocortisone suppression test. On the molecular level, the expression of aldosterone synthase showed a similar pattern with a fast response to the investigated stimuli. These tests should later be applied to the mouse lines derived from the ENU screen, in order to investigate potential abnormal response to these stimuli in comparison to wild type animals. Furthermore, aldosterone measurement was carried out in more than 2000 F1 offspring (of both genders) of chemically mutated inbred C3HeB/FeJ mice. From these tested F1 offspring, aldosterone levels were consistently elevated (defined as levels above 3 SD over the mean of untreated animals)upon repeated measurement in 9 animals (8 females and 1 male). Further breeding of affected female animals gave rise to F2 pedigrees from which four established lines displayed high aldosterone values. These animals served for a detailed phenotypic characterization and showed an increased aldosterone to renin ratio, low potassium values and normal renal function in line with the presence of primary aldosteronism. In addition, the investigation of their cardiac phenotype showed increased collagen deposits and subsequently cardiac fibrosis, as also observed in patients suffering from primary aldosteronism. In the future, genetic SNP analysis can be performed to identify underlying genetic loci, responsible for this trait. Taken together, these data demonstrate the feasibility of a phenotype-driven mutagenesis screen to detect and establish mutant mouse lines with a high aldosterone phenotype.
Background: Clinical chemical blood analysis including plasma electrolytes is routinely carried out for the diagnosis of various organ diseases. Phenotype-driven N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) mouse mutagenesis projects used plasma electrolytes as parameters for the generation of novel animal models for human diseases. Methods: Here, we retrospectively evaluated the use of the plasma electrolytes calcium, chloride, inorganic phosphorus, potassium and sodium in the Munich ENU mouse mutagenesis project where clinical chemical blood analysis was carried out on more than 20,000 G1 and G3 offspring of chemically mutagenized inbred C3H mice to detect dominant and recessive mutations leading to deviations in various plasma parameter levels. Results: We identified a small number of animals consistently exhibiting altered plasma electrolyte values. Transmission of the phenotypic deviations to the subsequent generations led to the successful establishment of mutant lines for the parameters calcium and potassium. Published data from other phenotype-driven ENU projects also included only a small number of mutant lines which were generated according to altered plasma electrolyte levels. Conclusion: Thus, use of plasma electrolytes detected few mouse mutants in ENU projects compared to other clinical chemical blood parameters.
Background: Large-scale mutagenesis screens in the zebrafish employing the mutagen ENU have isolated several hundred mutant loci that represent putative developmental control genes. In order to realize the potential of such screens, systematic genetic mapping of the mutations is necessary. Here we report on a large-scale effort to map the mutations generated in mutagenesis screening at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology by genome scanning with microsatellite markers. Results: We have selected a set of microsatellite markers and developed methods and scoring criteria suitable for efficient, high-throughput genome scanning. We have used these methods to successfully obtain a rough map position for 319 mutant loci from the Tubingen I mutagenesis screen and subsequent screening of the mutant collection. For 277 of these the corresponding gene is not yet identified. Mapping was successful for 80 % of the tested loci. By comparing 21 mutation and gene positions of cloned mutations we have validated the correctness of our linkage group assignments and estimated the standard error of our map positions to be approximately 6 cM. Conclusion: By obtaining rough map positions for over 300 zebrafish loci with developmental phenotypes, we have generated a dataset that will be useful not only for cloning of the affected genes, but also to suggest allelism of mutations with similar phenotypes that will be identified in future screens. Furthermore this work validates the usefulness of our methodology for rapid, systematic and inexpensive microsatellite mapping of zebrafish mutations.
Background/Aim: Phenotype-driven screening of a great pool of randomly mutant mice and subsequent selection of animals showing symptoms equivalent to human kidney diseases may result in the generation of novel suitable models for the study of the pathomechanisms and the identification of genes involved in kidney dysfunction. Methods: We carried out a large-scale analysis of ethylnitrosourea (ENU)-induced mouse mutants for albuminuria by using qualitative SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Results: The primary albuminuria screen preceded the comprehensive phenotypic mutation analysis in a part of the mice of the Munich ENU project to avoid loss of mutant animals as a consequence of prolonged suffering from severe nephropathy. The primary screen detected six confirmed phenotypic variants in 2,011 G1 animals screened for dominant mutations and no variant in 48 G3 pedigrees screened for recessive mutations. Further breeding experiments resulted in two lines showing a low phenotypic penetrance of albuminuria. The secondary albuminuria screen was carried out in mutant lines which were established in the Munich ENU project without preceding primary albuminuria analysis. Two lines showing increased plasma urea levels were chosen to clarify if severe kidney lesions are involved in the abnormal phenotype. This analysis revealed severe albuminuria in mice which are affected by a recessive mutation leading to increased plasma urea and cholesterol levels. Conclusion: Thus, the phenotypic selection of ENU-induced mutants according to the parameter proteinuria in principle demonstrates the feasibility to identify nephropathy phenotypes in ENU-mutagenized mice.

Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of the ENU-induced mutant mouse line HST001 for use in nephrological research A dominant mutation was established in the line HST001 within the Munich ENU mouse mutagenesis project. On the genetic background of the inbred strain C3H heterozygous mutant mice showed a pathological increase of the plasma urea concentration. The phenotypic characterization of the mutant line included the measurement of body and organ weights, food intake and a broad spectrum of clinical chemical and hematological parameters as well as histological investigations of inner organs. For those examinations heterozygous mutant mice were mated to C3H mice and the offspring were divided in the two groups of mutant and wildtype littermates according to the concentration of plasma urea. The mutation showed complete phenotypic penetrance in all generations examined. In addition the genomic localization of the causative mutation was determined by linkage analysis. At the age of 4 weeks the body weight of the mutant mice and the wildtype mice showed no difference. After 6 weeks the mutant mice grew more slowly leading to a significantly lower body weight compared to the wildtype littermates. At the age of 26 weeks the body weight of mutant mice was about 20% reduced as compared to controls. Mutants also showed a reduction of the nose-rump-length and the body fat content. Regarding the relative organ weights the mutant mice showed significantly higher values for the spleen and the brain. The clinical-chemical and hematological parameters were determined in the animals at the age of 12, 18 and 24 weeks. The mutant mice had significantly higher plasma concentrations of urea and total protein as well as a higher activity of the alkaline phosphatase. Beside that they showed lower plasma concentrations of triglycerides and glucose and a lower activity of amylase than the wildtype mice. The mutants showed increasing plasma urea levels whereas the levels decreased in the controls. At the age of 24 weeks the mutants showed levels, which were two-fold higher than those of the controls. The histopathological investigation of the kidneys did not reveal any alterations, which could to explain the pathological increase of the plasma urea concentration in the mutant mice. However urea secretion via the kidneys was impaired, since the mutants showed significantly lower urine urea levels compared to the wildtype mice. The investigation of the hematological parameters resulted in the occurrence of altered values in the 18 und 24 weeks old mice. The mutant mice showed reduced numbers 91 of erythrocytes as well as decreased values for hemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular volume and hematocrit. The hitherto existing results of the linkage analysis of the mutation in the genome using polymorphic microsatellite markers showed that the mutation maps to chromosome 7. This result has to be confirmed and specified by using additional markers and a larger number of animals.

This thesis describes the phenotypic and genotypic analysis of the dominant mutation in the ENU-induced mutant mouse line SMA002. The results were derived from the analysis of heterozygous mutant animals on the C3H genetic background. As the main phenotype of SMA002, an abnormal behavior combined with reduced body weight was revealed. The mutant phenotype showed complete penetrance in all generations analyzed. Abnormal behavior, as the most prominent phenotype was characterized by the occurrence of restlessness and an increased grooming behavior. The grooming behavior was increased fivefold but did not always contain all aspects of the standard repertoire. Pathological examinations of the skin and the analysis of parameters of the immune system indicated that this behavior was not caused by an allergic reaction. Clinical examination of the animals revealed a significant difference in body weight between mutant and control littermates. The body weight of the mutant animals was about 30% lower than control. In addition mutant animals had a significant lower nose-rump length and a significant lower carcass weight. Analysis of the peripheral blood for hematological and clinical chemical parameters as well as subsequent pathological examinations excluded a kidney, liver or pancreas disease as the potential cause of the abnormal phenotype. Decreased values for cholesterol, triglyceride, total protein and potassium in the mutant animals referred to an increased metabolism and a hormonal deviation in these mice. Furthermore, deviations of the IGF-system were found in the mutants. Linkage analysis of the causative mutation was carried out by genome wide polymorphic microsatellite marker analysis. The highest correlation for the mutation was found with the markers D13Mit20 (35cM) and D13Mit253 (37cM) of chromosome 13. This aberrant phenotype of the line SMA002 has not yet been reported. Thus, SMA002 represents a novel mouse model for the analysis of abnormal behavior and growth defects. Subsequent analysis will identify the exact mutation in the line. In addition, further analysis of the phenotype will result in detailed information on the metabolism and hormonal regulation of SMA002.
Background: The ENU Mouse Mutagenesis Project aims at a large-scale, systematic production of mouse mutants using the alkylating agent ethyl-nitrosourea (ENU). Offspring of mutagenized mice are subjected to a multiparameter screen to detect alterations in various phenotypes with the ultimate goal of identifying novel genes relevant for the expression of the phenotype. Using this approach, we have analyzed plasma IgE concentrations to identify mouse mutants with aberrant plasma IgE levels. Methods and Results: ENU-mutagenized male C3HeB/FeJ were mated to wild-type females to produce F1 offspring. F1 animals were analyzed for alterations in their plasma IgE concentrations that showed a dominant mode of inheritance, or bred further to screen for recessive phenotypes. Plasma IgE concentrations were deter mined by ELISA and a normal range for plasma IgE was established using C3HeB/FeJ wild-type animals. So far we have tested 6568 F1 animals. Repeated testing confirmed a stable aberrant IgE phenotype in 124 animals. To confirm the genetic basis of the observed phenotype, these mice were subjected to confirmation crossing. Currently we have established 9 independent m uta nt mouse lines (3 with high plasma IgE and 6 with plasma IgE below detection limit) that have been genetically confirmed and additional 24 variant mouse lines are currently undergoing confirmation testing. Conclusion: ENU mouse mutagenesis allowed us to generate and identify mouse mutants with aberrant plasma IgE levels, which may be used to characterize novel genes involved in IgE regulation and may serve as animal models for IgE-mediated diseases.
