More than 3,000 mutant mice strains have been created through genetic manipulation, and while, many molecular techniques are straight forward, analysis of anatomic changes can be a challenge for even the best pathologist. To keep up with current interest in the endocrine system, this volume provides researchers with both a survey and a guide concerning use of the mutant mouse in histological studies of various glands. Applying full color throughout, this atlas illustrates the...
More DescriptionMore than 3,000 mutant mice strains have been created through genetic manipulation, and while, many molecular techniques are straight forward, analysis of anatomic changes can be a challenge for even the best pathologist. To keep up with current interest in the endocrine system, this volume provides researchers with both a survey and a guide concerning use of the mutant mouse in histological studies of various glands. Applying full color throughout, this atlas illustrates the similarities and differences between the mouse endocrine system and that of other species including humans. It includes approximately 50 high magnification color plates and a variety of sectioned embryos post conception.
