TABLE 2.

Differential toxicity of CAR-null mice compared with wild-type mice treated with 5 mg/kg/day parathion for 2 consecutive days

Data are shown as number of mice showing toxicity/number of mice treated.

Treatment WT (M) CAR-Null (M) WT (F) CAR-Null (F)
0 mg/kg/day 0/5 0/5 0/5 0/5
3 mg/kg TCPOBOP 0/4 0/5 0/4 0/5
5 mg/kg/day parathion 0/5* 4/4* 2/5* 5/5*
20 mg/kg/day parathion 4/4 4/4

M, male; F, female.

*

Statistical significance was assessed by Mann-Whitney rank-sum tests using toxicity rankings depending on the severity: 1 = not toxic; 2 = eye leakage; 3 = lethargy; slow movements or tremors; and 4 = death. Male and female data, p = 0.0079.
