Aged C57BL/6J Mice

Overview

Study-ready aged C57BL/6J males and females are available off-the-shelf between 25 - 90 weeks of age. Aged C57BL/6J mice have research applications that include immunology, cancer, longevity interventions, and biomarker studies. C57BL/6J is the most widely used inbred strain and the first to have its genome sequenced. C57BL/6J mice are resistant to audiogenic seizures, have a relatively low bone density, and develop age related hearing loss. They are also susceptible to diet-induced obesity, type 2 diabetes, and atherosclerosis. They are frequently used in studies related to neurodegenerative disorders and bone density.Learn about key differences between aged and young C57BL/6J mice in diet-induced NASH.
