[viable c-Kit-deficient] This term refers to a viable mutant mouse strain with a mutation in the Kit gene, which is the receptor for SCF [stem cell factor]. These mice have been identified after outcrossing kit mutant mice of the WB strain, in which lack of kit is lethal, to a mixed genetic background (Waskow et al, 2002). They do not succumb to perinatal death caused by defects in hematopoiesis like other mice lacking expression of the SCF receptor kit. Vickid mice show an age-dependent, progressive decline of pro-T-cells and pro-B-cells accompanied by loss of common lymphoid
