Details of a new model of diet-dependent polygenic obesity are presented. CAST/Ei(Mus m. castaneus)mice remain lean after 12 weeks on a high-fat (32 kcal% fat) diet, while C57BL/ 6J mice become obese. The genes responsible for the obesity segregate in an F2population derived from an intercross between CAST/Ei and C57BL/6J mice. Quantitative trait analysis, with simple sequence length polymorphisms (SSLPs) at loci previously linked to rodent obesities, identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL) on Chromosome (Chr) 15, accounting for approximately 9% of the variance in adiposity and 14% of the variance in mesenteric depot size. This locus appears to be at the same location as the dietary obesity-3 (Do3) locus controlling body fat content, which was previously identified in an F2population derived from an SWR/J × AKR/J cross. This is also at the same location as the multigenic obesity-4 (Mob4) locus found in BSB mice, which display spontaneous polygenic obesity. Suggestive linkage also was found at loci close to the single gene mutationsAyon Chr 2 andtubon Chr 7.
