Experiment

Serum Lipoploysaccharide Binding Protein (LBP) levels in letrozole-treated
female mice (cohort4)
Summary Data Summary
Investigator Thackray, Varykina
Description Puberal (4 week old) female mice were implanted with a placebo or letrozole
pellet (50 ug/day) and treated for 5 weeks. Mice were given adlib access to food
and water. Mice were fasted for 5 hours and then terminated using isoflurane and
blood was collected and spun down to collect serum for analysis.

Letrozole treatment of pubertal female mice results in hallmarks of PCOS
including elevated androgens, anovulation, polycystic ovaries and a metabolic
phenotype.
