integument
• mice administered doxycycline at weaning develop spontaneous melanoma after an average of 15 weeks with a 50% penetrance
• withdrawal of doxycycline results in rapid, durable and complete tumor regression within 10 days
• doxycycline treated mice administered the MEK inhibitor Selumetinib or GSK1120212 show tumor stasis but not tumor regression
• doxycycline treated mice administered a selective inhibitor of CDK4/6, PD-0332991 together with either Selumetinib or GSK1120212 show tumor regression

mortality/aging
• 50% of doxycycline-treated mice die due to generally compromised physiological state secondary to renal failure despite frequent bladder irrigations

neoplasm
• at 24 weeks after doxycycline induction, mice develop prostate adenocarcinomas that exhibit epithelial-mesenchyme transition
• doxycycline-induced prostate adenomas can compress the bladder, originate from epithelial cells and express luminal, intermediate and basal cell markers
• doxycycline-treated mice that are subsequently castrated exhibit reduced prostate tumor proliferation compared to pre-castration
• withdrawal of doxycycline does not affect tumor cell proliferation

endocrine/exocrine glands
• at 16 weeks after doxycycline induction, prostates exhibit basaloid hyperplasia driven by urogenital epithelium unlike in wild-type mice
• at 24 weeks after doxycycline induction, mice develop prostate adenocarcinomas that exhibit epithelial-mesenchyme transition
• doxycycline-induced prostate adenomas can compress the bladder, originate from epithelial cells and express luminal, intermediate and basal cell markers
• doxycycline-treated mice that are subsequently castrated exhibit reduced prostate tumor proliferation compared to pre-castration
• withdrawal of doxycycline does not affect tumor cell proliferation
• at 5 weeks after doxycycline induction, prostates exhibit a moderate degree of aberrant proliferation unlike in wild-type mice

• upon induction of Ppargc1a expression in melanocytes, mice exhibit a noticeably darkened coat color relative to the yellow coat color of Ay/a Tg(Tyr-rtTA)37Lc/0 mice; however, the coat color does not become completely black
• upon induction of Ppargc1a expression in melanocytes, mice exhibit significantly increased presence of melanin in hair follicles relative to Ay/a Tg(Tyr-rtTA)37Lc/0 mice
