Background


The immunodeficient B-NDG mice (NOD.CB17-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Bcgen/Bcgen) was independently designed and generated by Biocytogen. B-NDG mice were generated by deleting the Il2rg gene from NOD scid mice with severe immunodeficient phenotype. This mouse model lacks  mature T cells, B cells and functional NK cells. It is internationally recognized as an immunodeficient mouse model well suited for human-derived tissue or cell engraftment.


  • NOD (non-obese diabetes) genetic background: Spontaneous type I diabetes; defective function of T cells, NK cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells and lack hemolytic function of complement.
  • Prkdc (protein kinase, DNA activated, catalytic polypeptide) gene mutation: no mature T cells and B cells, severe combined immunodeficiency (scid) of cellular and humoral immunity.
  • Il2rg gene knockout: the gamma chain of IL2 receptor (IL2Rγc, CD132) is located on the X chromosome of mouse, and is the common receptor subunit of cytokines IL2, IL4, IL7, IL9, IL15 and IL21 with important immune functions. The immune function of Il2rg knockout mice was severely reduced, especially the activity of NK cells was almost lost.

B-NDG mice: Combined NOD scid-Il2rg null background features, severe immunodeficient phenotype, absence of mature T cells, B cells, and functional NK cells, decreased function of macrophages and dendritic cells. It is very suitable for the transplantation of human hematopoietic stem cells (CD34+ HSCs) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to obtain humanized mice with human immune system.


Advantages of B-NDG Mice 


• The highest degree of immunodeficiency among all immunodeficient mouse models

• Longer lifespan than NOD scid mice; 1.5 years on average

• Minimal to absent rejection of human-derived cells and tissues

• More efficient for CDX and PDX model generation


Major Applications 

• Human-derived cell or tissue engraftment

• Tumor and tumor stem cell research

• ES and iPS cell research

• Hematopoiesis and immunology studies

• Human infectious disease studies

• Development of new humanized mouse models

Animal breeding and maintenance


Health status of housing

B-NDG mice are housed in isolators instead of IVCs in our facility. Based on our experience, the mice can live up to 2 months in SPF standard IVCs. This time frame matches the requirements of most experiments performed with B-NDG mice. To improve facility standards, strict sanitation procedures are recommended: cages and bedding need to be sterilized by autoclaving or Co60 irradiation before use, and cages need to be changed in laminar flow hoods weekly. Keeping a clean, high standard housing environment helps to improve the life span of B-NDG mice.


Animal husbandry

Food
5CJL from Labdiet (USA) is recommended to use for breeding B-NDG mice (19.3% protein, 6.2% fat, 20 ppm Vitamin K). Co60 radiation is recommended to sterilizethe food before use.
Water
B-NDG mice are housed in pathogen-free isolators in our facility. Autoclaved purified water is used.
For SPF standard facilities, we recommend following the Jackson Lab standard for water supply: acidified water (adjust pH to 2.5-3.0 using HCl), autoclaved to prevent Pseudomonas and Staphylococcus aureus infection. Autoclaved purified water can also be used with more frequent water changes. Bottle must be changed every 3 days regardless if there is still water left in the bottle.
Bedding
Shavings are the recommended bedding material for B-NDG mice. The bedding material needs to be sterile, soft, dust-free, odor-free and have high moisture absorbance. Sterilizing by autoclaving or irradiation is required before use.
Bedding needs to be changed weekly in laminar flow hoods if the mice are not housed in isolators. Mice need to be transferred into new cages with fresh bedding using sterile tweezers or forceps.
Housing environment
Enough light time and appropriate light intensity are necessary for breeding. We use a standard light cycle, which is 12-hours of light followed by 12-hours of dark.
Housing temperature is strictly 20-26℃. The temperature difference between day and night should not be more than 4℃.
Cages need to be made from non-toxic material and must be easy to clean and disinfect. Thorough cleaning and disinfection is required every week at least.

Animal breeding and maintenance

Transportation

Biocytogen’s B-NDG mouse can be shipped using land and/or air. Although the courier is notified to handle the crate with care, stress response of mice during shipment is still inevitable. Although enough supply of water jelly and food will be provided in cages, increased metabolism and fecal excretion caused by the stress may result in dehydration and loss of body weight. General percentage weight loss due to shipment is ~10%. The percentage can be as high as 15% if the shipment procedure is longer and the cage is populated. Usually, the most of the lost body weight is regained (although cannot reach 100%) after 5-7 days of adaptive feeding (Labdiet food is recommended)).


Adaptive feeding

 Importance of adaptive feeding
Before performing experiments, at least 5-7 days of feeding in the receiving facility are required so that the animals can adapt to their new environment, and the stress response caused by transportation can be eliminated or alleviated.
Brief procedure description of adaptive feeding
Perform animal husbandry following 1.10.1.2. Monitor the health status of animals by observing their appearance (e.g. hair), feces and activity. Separate the animals from other animals in the facility as the sound and smell (e.g. Ammonia smelling feces) from other animals may be stimuli. Adaptive feeding is a critical prerequisite for successful experiments.

Comparing three cell lines with different Her2 expression level and establishing CDX models in B-NDG mice to verify the difference in efficacy of Her2-targeting ADC drugs. A431, BT-474 and NCI-H1975 cells were implanted subcutaneously in B-NDG mice. Mice were grouped when tumor volume reached to a suitable size, at which time they were treated intravenously with ADC drugs. The drug synthesized internally were marked with “in house”, while the commercial drugs were marked nothing after the drug name.
