neoplasm

increased pituitary gland tumor incidence ( J:130264 )

• however, the number of prolactinomas is not increased relative to in wild-type mice

• when pituitary glands are examined, mice exhibit an increased rate of tumorigenesis (in 48% of mice compared to 30.6% of wild-type mice)

• nonprolactonmas stain positive for multiple hormone subtypes including Prl, GH and TSH

homeostasis/metabolism

increased circulating growth hormone level ( J:130264 )

• regardless of tumor status mice exhibit increased serum growth hormone levels (28.27+/-41.4 ng/ml compared to 8.44+/-20.7 ng/ml in wild-type mice)

endocrine/exocrine glands

increased pituitary gland tumor incidence ( J:130264 )

• when pituitary glands are examined, mice exhibit an increased rate of tumorigenesis (in 48% of mice compared to 30.6% of wild-type mice)

• however, the number of prolactinomas is not increased relative to in wild-type mice

• nonprolactonmas stain positive for multiple hormone subtypes including Prl, GH and TSH

nervous system

increased pituitary gland tumor incidence ( J:130264 )

• when pituitary glands are examined, mice exhibit an increased rate of tumorigenesis (in 48% of mice compared to 30.6% of wild-type mice)

• however, the number of prolactinomas is not increased relative to in wild-type mice
