Histological analysis of prostate tumors in Tg(TRAMP)8247Ng/0 mice

neoplasm
• males display focal and invasive adenocarcinoma of the prostate by 20 weeks (J:65303)
• mice exhibit a range of prostate hyperplasia to invasive carcinomas (J:217920)
• mice treated with bromhexine hydrochloride, a TMPRSS2 inhibitor, at 15 weeks of age and continued to about 20 weeks, show larger prostate glands (ie, larger prostate tumors) than vehicle-treated mice and reduced incidence of distant metastasis to lung and liver from 55% in vehicle-treated mice to 20% with bromhexine hydrochloride (J:217920)

reproductive system
• intraepithelial hyperplasia can be detected in males by 10 weeks of age and by 22 weeks of age, almost all prostatic glands are hyperplastic
• males display focal and invasive adenocarcinoma of the prostate by 20 weeks (J:65303)
• mice exhibit a range of prostate hyperplasia to invasive carcinomas (J:217920)
• mice treated with bromhexine hydrochloride, a TMPRSS2 inhibitor, at 15 weeks of age and continued to about 20 weeks, show larger prostate glands (ie, larger prostate tumors) than vehicle-treated mice and reduced incidence of distant metastasis to lung and liver from 55% in vehicle-treated mice to 20% with bromhexine hydrochloride (J:217920)

endocrine/exocrine glands
• intraepithelial hyperplasia can be detected in males by 10 weeks of age and by 22 weeks of age, almost all prostatic glands are hyperplastic
• males display focal and invasive adenocarcinoma of the prostate by 20 weeks (J:65303)
• mice exhibit a range of prostate hyperplasia to invasive carcinomas (J:217920)
