A new PXO set of RIS represents a fixed F2 population derived from polydactylous (P) congenic strain SHR.Lx and oligodactylous (O) RI strain BXH2. The PXO strains were derived as a complementary set to current RIS (HXB, BXH) of the laboratory rat. All PXO strains are homozygous in the Lx allele and express different morphological phenotypes of the polydactyly-luxate syndrome (PLS) due to variable combinations of Lx modifying genes of either SHR or BN origin. The SDP is being built up by genotyping polymorphic microsatellite markers and several gene polymorphisms. The markers were ordered according to data from public mapping resources such as the Rat Genome Database (rgd.mcw.edu) and current SDP of the other RI strain sets (HXB, BXH). The resulting map corresponding to the common SDP of HXB, BXH RIS sets consists of 448 markers, from which 261 were proven to be polymorphic in the PXO set. The SDP of PXO strains with polymorphic markers arranged in approximately 5 cM intervals is ready for the association analysis and interval mapping in interconnection with the SDP of HXB/BXH strains.

Patient-derived organoid models are proving to be a powerful platform for both basic and translational studies. Here we conduct a methodical analysis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumor organoid drug response in paired patient-derived xenograft (PDX) and PDX-derived organoid (PXO) models grown under WNT-free culture conditions. We report a specific relationship between area under the curve value of organoid drug dose response and in vivo tumor growth, irrespective of the drug treatment.

The plasma profile of major lipoprotein classes and its subdivision into particular fractions plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and is a major predictor of coronary artery disease. Our aim was to identify genomic determinants of triglyceride and cholesterol distribution into lipoprotein fractions and lipoprotein particle sizes in the recombinant inbred rat set PXO, in which alleles of two rat models of the metabolic syndrome (SHR and PD inbred strains) segregate together with those from Brown Norway rat strain. Adult male rats of 15 PXO strains (n = 8-13/strain) and two progenitor strains SHR-Lx (n = 13) and BXH2/Cub (n = 18) were subjected to one-week of high-sucrose diet feeding.
