neoplasm
• mammary tumors develop in 70-85% of breeders by approximately 7 months of age
• using the Dunn classification system, 47% of tumors are identified as pale cell, the remaining tumors are classified as Type A+B or type P
• mammary tumors develop in 58% of virgin females by approximately 10 months of age
• using the Dunn classification system 65% of tumors are identified as type A+B, the remaining tumors are classified as pale cell or type P

endocrine/exocrine glands
• mice that do not develop palpable tumors exhibit tumorous lesions or hyperplastic nodules at one year
