cellular
polyploidy
(
J:172430
)
|
• following withdrawal of doxycycline and intrasplenic injection of adenovirus expressing Cre recombinase, adult liver cells exhibit an increase in polyploidy
|
mortality/aging
|
• median survival of mutants is 27 weeks following withdrawal of doxycycline and intrasplenic injection of adenovirus expressing Cre recombinase
• median survival of mutants with tumors is 16.5 weeks following withdrawal of doxycycline and intrasplenic injection of adenovirus expressing Cre recombinase
|
tumorigenesis
|
• following withdrawal of doxycycline and intrasplenic injection of adenovirus expressing Cre recombinase, some mice develop liver tumors composed of multiple fleshy vascular nodules
|
|
• tumors of mice injected with adenovirus expressing Cre recombinase and without doxycycline to induce MYC expression are composed of hepatocellular neoplasms characterized by sheets of cells with occasional mitotic figure, slightly pleomorphic nuclei, and prominent nucleoli
• tumors show a range of differentiation between well- and moderately-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma
