Medical Definition of Nude mice
1. Strains of athymic mice bearing the recessive allele nu/nu which are largely hairless and lack all or most of the T-cell population. Show no rejection of either allografts or xenografts. Nu/nu alleles on some backgrounds have near normal numbers of T-cells. This entry appears with permission from the Dictionary of Cell and Molecular Biology (11 Mar 2008)
