neoplasm
• mice develop only a few small adenomas (polyps) by 4 months of age
• mice show loss of the wild-type Apc allele in the small adenomas formed
• Rac1 and Cdc42 signaling appears to be reduced
• the density of microvessels within adenomas is significantly lower than that in ApcMin heterozygotes
• however, tumor-associated macrophages are recruited to adenomas and release vascular endothelial growth factor normally
• mice develop only a few small adenomas (polyps) by 4 months of age

cardiovascular system
• the density of microvessels within adenomas is significantly lower than that in ApcMin heterozygotes
• however, tumor-associated macrophages are recruited to adenomas and release vascular endothelial growth factor normally

homeostasis/metabolism
• treatment of mice with zoledronic acid (a specific inhibitor of MMP9) for 6 weeks fails to result in further suppression of adenoma formation, unlike in ApcMin heterozygotes

digestive/alimentary system
• mice develop only a few small adenomas (polyps) by 4 months of age

mortality/aging
• mice survive significantly longer than ApcMin heterozygotes

neoplasm
• at 4 months of age, mice show an even greater reduction in the total number of intestinal adenomas (polyps) per mouse than mice that are homozygous for Arhgef4tm1Taki and heterozygous for ApcMin
• at 4 months of age, mice show an even greater reduction in the size of intestinal adenomas (polyps) than mice that are homozygous for Arhgef4tm1Taki and heterozygous for ApcMin
