digestive/alimentary system
• tamoxifen induced mice show intestinal crypt hyperplasia
• intercellular spaces between enterocytes are enlarged in tamoxifen induced mice
|
• PAS-positive vesicles (secretory granules) are seen in crypt enterocytes and at the crypt-villus transition of tamoxifen treated mice
|
• mature villus enterocytes show clusters of subapical vesicles, autolysosomes, and microvillus inclusions on day 4 after tamoxifen induction
• marker analysis indicates disturbed basolateral polarity of villus enterocytes in tamoxifen treated mice
• subapical accumulation of secretory granules precedes occurrence of microvillus inclusions
|
• intestines show a severe reduction to almost complete absence of apical microvilli on day 4 after tamoxifen induction
|
• tamoxifen treated mice exhibit fusion of intestinal villi
|
• mice show intestinal villus atrophy on day 4 after tamoxifen induction
