mortality/aging
• mice begin to die at around 1 year of age unlike wild-type mice
|
respiratory system
• mice exhibit an increase in the total number of lung cells compared with wild-type mice
• however, lung weight is normal
|
• at 6 weeks, 30% of mice develop small lung tumors unlike wild-type mice
|
• at 11-25 months, 64% of mice develop lung adenocarcinoma compared with 7% of wild-type mice
|
• the number and percentages of bronchioalveolar stem cells are increased compared to in wild-type mice
|
• at 12 weeks, mice exhibit alveolar hyperplasia with scattered bronchioaveolar stem cells unlike in wild-type mice
|
• the number and percentages of alveolar type 2 cells are increased compared to in wild-type mice
|
neoplasm
• at 20 months, mice exhibit an expansion of Mac-1+ and GR-1+ Mac-1+ cells compared with wild-type mice
• however, Mac-1+ and GR-1+ Mac-1+ cell numbers are normal at 3 months
|
• at 6 weeks, 30% of mice develop small lung tumors unlike wild-type mice
|
• at 11-25 months, 64% of mice develop lung adenocarcinoma compared with 7% of wild-type mice
|
immune system
• after 18 months
|
hematopoietic system
• after 18 months
|
growth/size/body
