neoplasm
|
• cells of hyperplastic lesions show a significant reduction of percentage of proliferating cells but no drastic increase in apoptotic cell number in mammary glands of 8-week old females
• tumor angiogenesis assessed by microvessel density is significantly decreaed relative to tumors from Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul single mutants, along with increased level of ischemic necrosis
|
|
• number of mice displaying lung metastases is decreased by greater than 3-fold compared to Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul single mutants (24 vs 91 mice)
|
|
• mammary tumor latency is strongly increased compared to Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul single mutants (155 days vs 66 days)

endocrine/exocrine glands
|
|
• entire gland is hyperplastic
• mammary glands are composed of single layer of epithelial cells surrounding a dilated lumen
