neoplasm
• castrated male mice show rapid formation of high-grade PIN and carcinoma after androgen-mediated prostate regeneration with evidence of microinvasion
• castrated male mice show rapid formation of high-grade PIN and carcinoma after androgen-mediated prostate regeneration with evidence of microinvasion (J:153425)
• mutants show extensive prostate intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) III and PIN IV 9-12 months after tamoxifen induction, with some areas of squamous papilloma, however mutants rarely develop lethal prostate cancer up to 2 years following tamoxifen induction (J:191327)
