Features

Nomenclature: Crl:CD1-Foxn1^nu

Type: Outbred, Immunodeficient

Origin: Developed from the transfer of the nude gene from Crl:NU-Foxn1nu to a CD-1^® mouse through a series of crosses and backcrosses beginning in 1979 at Charles River Laboratories, Wilmington, MA. The animal lacks a thymus, is unable to produce T-cells, and is therefore immunodeficient.

The control model for the CD-1^® Nude mouse is the CD-1^® Heterozygous mouse.
