The genetic quality of laboratory mice may have a direct impact on the results of research. Therefore, it is essential to improve genetic monitoring methods to guarantee research quality. However, few current methods boast high efficiency, high throughput, low cost, and general applicability at the same time.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how genetic variations in the TLR4 gene affect immune responses to pertussis toxin in different mouse strains (ICR, NIH, BALB/c).
  • Researchers discovered three specific mutations in the TLR4 gene and noted how these variations influence cytokine production in response to stimulation.
  • The findings aim to improve the consistency of vaccine evaluations across different mouse models, potentially enhancing vaccine development by standardizing immune response assessments.

The current study was designed to comparatively analyse the reactions of different mouse strains in response to vaccine, with attempt to further provide a reference for aP vaccine evaluation. NIH mice, ICR mice, and BALB/c mice adopted from different pharmacopoeias and studies were utilized to measure the immune protection and immunogenicity of the same batch of aP vaccine according to the from some Asian pharmacopoeias and the method from European Pharmacopoeia. Based on our results, the aP vaccine detected by NIH mice had the best potency.
