Prkar1a heterozygosity accelerates osteosarcoma development in Tg(Bglap2-TAg)1Rkho/0 mice

mortality/aging
• no mice survive past 5 weeks of age

neoplasm
• mice develop advanced osteosarcoma, often in the spine
• mice exhibit multi-ostotic tumors in long and flat bones, including the skull, vertebrae, ribs, and tibia
• however, metastasis is not seen at this early age
• tumors show increased osteoclast numbers

behavior/neurological
• impaired mobility due to osteosarcoma in the spine
• paralysis due to osteosarcoma in the spine

Poorly calcified femur tumor with bone destruction in a Tg(Bglap2-TAg)1Rkho/0 mouse

mortality/aging
• mice die after 21 weeks of age due to tumors

neoplasm
• spontaneous metastases are seen in the lungs of more than 90% of mice at time of morbidity, and less frequently in the liver and occasionally in the kidney and spleen
• mice form multi-ostotic bone tumors with complete penetrance at a young age and showing varying levels of calcification
• skeletal tumors show a peak incidence in the long bones and a higher prevalence of craniofacial tumors
• tumors exhibit increased osteoclast numbers
• mice develop a spectrum of osteoblastic lesions from benign osteoma to aggressive metastatic osteosarcoma, with most being osteoblastic osteosarcoma, with features typical of high-grade osteosarcoma
• osteosarcomas are genomically unstable
