Abstract:nuclear genome but different mtDNA variants (named conplastic mice) during aging and forced exercise. Methods: Conplastic mice (BL/6 NZB) strain was developed with the C57BL/6JOlaHsd nuclear genome and the NZB/OlaHsd mtDNA to compare with the original C57BL/6JOlaHsd strain (BL/6 C57 ). Knee joints from BL/6 NZB mice as well as from BL/6 C57 mice were processed and cut into coronal sections. The mice were sacrificed at 25, 75 and 90 weeks of age and knee joints were collected for histological analysis. All sect… Show more
