Groups of 30 female and 30 male homozygous (Foxn1nu/Foxn1nu) nude immunodeficient mice were weighed weekly. Mice were fed a diet containing 6% fat (LabDiet® 5K52 formulation). Values represent mean and one standard deviation. Ages are ± 3 days. The weights of 10 female and 10 male heterozygous (Foxn1nu/+) furred immunocompetent mice are included in the table below for comparison.
