The level of the in vitro chemotactic responsiveness of murine inflammatory peritoneal macrophages is dependent upon the genetic background of the host. A survey of the responses of macrophages from various inbred strains showed three categories of response (high, intermediate, and low), indicating that genetic control is multigenic. Among the high responder strains were those derived from the C57BL (B) background, while mice of the A/J (A) strain exhibited the lowest response. In order to determine the number of genes controlling the level of macrophage chemotactic responses, segregation analysis of backcross mice derived from high responder B and low responder A parental mice was performed. The results of analysis of the data by the maximum likelihood modeling, a computerized method, showed that the difference in macrophage chemotactic responsiveness in the strain combination of B and A mice is due to the effects of two autosomal genetic loci.
