Urothelial carcinoma in situ in Tg(Upk2-TAg)1Rkl/0 mice

neoplasm

abnormal tumor vascularization ( J:173505 )

• tumors develop prominent vasculature

• tumors exhibit hypoxia

• however, pericyte coverage is normal

abnormal metastatic potential ( J:173505 )

• one mouse exhibited lamina propria invasion

increased urinary bladder carcinoma incidence ( J:173505 )

• all mice develop bladder urothelial carcinoma in situ

• male mice develop higher bladder weight due to higher tumor burden compared with female mice

increased urinary bladder transitional cell carcinoma incidence ( J:173505 )

• a flat growth with large and pleomorphic nuclei and frequent mitoses
