N normal phenotype
neoplasm
• mutants exhibit accelerated development of acinar-to-ductal metaplasia, malignant pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma compared to single heterozygous Kras mutants, with almost 100% of mutants succumbing to cancer by 12 months of age
• 21 of 25 mice alive past 2 months of age develop well-to-moderately differentiated invasive ductal cancers
• rare metastasis to lungs is seen
• at 3 months of age, 8 of 12 mutants show development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and all mice show PDAC by 6 months of age
• loss of Pten heterozygosity is seen during pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma progression but not in mPanIN lesions
• mutants show malignant pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (mPanIN) development starting at 1 month of age, and all show mPanIN by 3 months of age

mortality/aging
• median survival time is about 3.5 months

endocrine/exocrine glands
• acinar-to-ductal metaplasia is seen at 1-3 months of age, concentrated in the transition zone between morphologically normal pancreatic structures and mPanIN and PDAC lesions
• acinar-to-ductal metaplasia development precedes mPanIN formation
• metaplastic lesions show an increase in CD44+ cells
• mutants exhibit accelerated development of acinar-to-ductal metaplasia, malignant pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma compared to single heterozygous Kras mutants, with almost 100% of mutants succumbing to cancer by 12 months of age
• 21 of 25 mice alive past 2 months of age develop well-to-moderately differentiated invasive ductal cancers
• rare metastasis to lungs is seen
• at 3 months of age, 8 of 12 mutants show development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and all mice show PDAC by 6 months of age
• loss of Pten heterozygosity is seen during pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma progression but not in mPanIN lesions
• mutants show malignant pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (mPanIN) development starting at 1 month of age, and all show mPanIN by 3 months of age
