1 Values were mean ± SD. Mice of different gender were pooled as they were too young to show detectable differences; +/+ mice included 5 females and 5 males, 10 lbab/+ mice included 5 females and 5 males; 12 lbab/lbab mice included 6 females and 6 males. As shown, the body weight and body length from the lbab/lbab group were significantly smaller than in the +/+ and lbab/+ groups (* p < 0.05). There were no significant differences between +/+ and lbab/+ mice. | ||||
