strain_characteristics Generally large in size. 1302502
strain_characteristics Susceptible to the induction of EAU by interphotoreceptor retinol-binding protein (cf WKAH,W/M, LEW and BUF, but in contrast with TO) (Sasamoto et al, 1994). Moderately sensitive to the development of experimental glomerulonephritis following injection of nephritogenic antigenfrom bovine renal basement membrane (3/10) (Naito et al, 1991) 1004
