digestive/alimentary system
• in some mice cell numbers are depleted in some regions of both the small intestine and colon
|
• severe decrease in the number of Paneth cells
|
• hyperplastic and expanded crypt regions in both adult and weanling jejunum crypts
• increase in apoptosis coincident with the increase in proliferation
|
• the majority of mice develop adenomas or adenocarcinomas at 12-17 months of age
• adenomas and adenocarcinomas are seen in the small intestine only except for in the founder mouse that had tumors in the small intestine and colon at 15.5 months of age
|
• the majority of mice develop adenomas or adenocarcinomas at 12-17 months of age
• lesions are typically polyp-shaped or flat
|
