neoplasm
• lymphomas and carcinomas in heterozygous mice spread rapidly to other organs, while in a control mouse, the tumor remained localized to the lung
|
• 33% of female heterozygotes develop lymphomas and sarcomas
• males do not develop lymphomas or sarcomas at an incidence greater than controls
|
• heterozygotes show a predisposition to malignant tumors after 70 weeks of age
• at 70 weeks of age the incidence is 16.4 percent and none in controls; by 100 weeks of age, 32.4 percent of mice develop tumors, and the incidence in controls is 14.3 percent
• 44% of the malignant tumors are epithelial cancers
|
• 22% of heterozygous males develop epithelial tumors, including squamous cells carcinomas of the oral cavity and ear canal, lung adenocarcinomas, hepatocellular carcinomas and pancreatic islet cell carcinoma; controls developed none
• female heterozygotes do not develop carcinomas at an incidence greater than controls
|
• observed in the oral cavity and ear canal
|
• 33% of female heterozygotes develop lymphomas and sarcomas
• males do not develop lymphomas or sarcomas at an incidence greater than controls
