Radiation-induced tumorigenesis in preneoplastic mouse mammary glands in vivo: significance of p53 status and apoptosis.
In mouse mammary tumorigenesis, p53 mutations facilitate tumorigenesis in concert with other oncogenic alterations. Ionizing radiation enhances tumorigenesis in preneoplastic mammary outgrowth lines and induces p53-dependent apoptosis. We asked if normal p53 function modulates radiation-induced tumorigenesis in preneoplastic mammary lesions by affecting the apoptotic pathway of cell deletion. T...
متن کاملMouse mammary tumor virus genome expression in chemical carcinogen-induced mammary tumors in low- and high-tumor-incidence mouse strains.
Involvement of mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) in 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary tumorigenesis was investigated in low- (BALB/c) and high- (BALB/cfC3H) mammary-tumor-incidence mouse strains. Both strains contain endogenous MMTV integrated into the cellular genome. Additionally, BALB/cfC3H mice are infected with exogenous MMTV-S which is responsible for a higher incidence...
متن کاملImportance of mammary gland DNA synthesis on carcinogen-induced mammary tumorigenesis in rats.
DNA synthesis in mammary gland estimated by [3H]thymidine incorporation was significantly higher on the day of proestrus than on the second day of diestrus in 50-day-old female Sprague-Dawley rats. The percentage of progressive mammary tumors, tumor growth rate, and the number and the weight of tumors per tumor-bearing rat were significantly higher in the animals given a single i.v. injection o...
متن کاملMice lacking the amplified in breast cancer 1/steroid receptor coactivator-3 are resistant to chemical carcinogen-induced mammary tumorigenesis.
Amplified in breast cancer 1 (AIB1; steroid receptor coactivator-3, p/CIP, RAC3, ACTR, TRAM-1, or NCoA-3) is a transcriptional coactivator for nuclear receptors and certain other transcription factors and is a newly defined oncogene overexpressed in human breast cancer. Although the role and molecular mechanism of AIB1 in normal physiology and in breast cancer are currently under intensive inve...
متن کاملPeroral Estradiol Is Sufficient to Induce Carcinogen-Induced Mammary Tumorigenesis in Ovariectomized Rats without Progesterone
A role for estrogens in breast cancer is widely accepted, however, recent evidence highlights that timing and exposure levels are important in determining whether they elicit harmful versus beneficial effects. The rat chemical carcinogen model has been widely used to study the effects of estrogens but conclusions on the levels that lead to tumor development and an absolute requirement for proge...
