J.Thomas LaMont, Bradley S. Turner, Seldon E. Bernstein, Bruce W. Trotman – 1 January 1983 – The nb/nb mouse with hereditary hemolytic anemia provides an animal model for the study of pigment gallstone disease. We measured glycoprotein synthesis and secretion in gallbladder neck and fundus of 6‐month‐old mice without stones, and in 12‐month‐old mice with and without stones in order to determine the effect of age and presence or absence of stones on mucin release.
