A staple of atherosclerosis research
More than 25 years ago, our nutritionists collaborated with researchers at Rockefeller University to develop a diet with features of a ‘Western Diet’ to characterize and enhance atherosclerosis development in their newly generated Apoe deficient mouse model.
With over 200 unique users worldwide, TD.88137 continues to be fed to genetically modified cardiovascular models to accelerate and enhance hypercholesterolemia and plaque formation.

Key points from the literature
TD.88137 has been used to accelerate atherosclerosis development in Apoe and Ldlr deficient models:
++In Apoe deficient mice, plasma cholesterol triples to >1500 mg/dL within three weeks (1, 2). Foam cell and lesion development occurs within 6-10 weeks (2-4). Fibrous plaque formation is observed at 15 weeks with the development of fibrous caps after 20 weeks (2).
++Ldlr deficient mice fed for two weeks increase plasma cholesterol to >800 mg/dL and triglyceride to >300 mg/dL (5). After six weeks of feeding, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia and dyslipidemia develop with small foam cell lesions in the aortic arch (6, 7).

Key planning information:
- Store diet refrigerated and plan to use within six months. Diet should be replaced at minimum once per week when fed on cage tops.
- Diets available as a soft ½” pellet or as a crumbly powder.
- Three kg minimum order quantity. For planning purposes, estimates for diet uses (including feed intake and diet waste) are 5 g of diet per mouse and 30 g of diet per rat per day.
- Two-day lead time for orders less than 10 kg. Two-week lead time for larger quantity orders.
- Lead time for irradiation adds two weeks for any quantity of diet and must be requested at the time you place your order. Changes in texture and browning may occur with irradiation.
- Shipping can affect pellet quality. Vacuum packaging can offer protection of the pellets during shipping. Two-day shipping is recommended during warmer months.
