mortality/aging
• heterozygotes irradiated with gamma-rays at a dosage of 8 Gy exhibit a significantly shorter life span than wild-type controls
|
neoplasm
• over a period of 100 weeks, heterozygotes exhibit increased susceptibility to spontaneous tumor development (78% vs 53% in wild-type), with a significantly higher number of tumors per mouse than wild-type mice (1.09 vs 0.59, respectively)
• heterozygotes develop a high frequency of epithelial tumors (52%), gonad tumors (12%), and lymphomas (10%), whereas wild-type mice develop primarily age-related tumors such as lung tumors, angiomas, and sarcomas
|
• heterozygotes develop a high frequency of thyroid gland atypical hyperplasia and intraepithelial adenomas only after gamma-irradiation
|
• ~3.5% of heterozygotes develop mammary gland adenocarcinomas vs none of wild-type mice
|
• 8.6% of heterozygotes develop low-grade prostate intraepithelial neoplasia vs none of wild-type mice
|
• 8.6% of heterozygotes develop liver adenocarcinomas vs 3% of wild-type mice
|
• 10% of heterozygotes develop liver adenomas vs 6.5% of wild-type mice
|
• 10% of heterozygotes develop lymphomas that can infiltrate other organs such as the liver or small intestine and express exclusively either the B-cell marker CD45R/B220, or the T-cell marker CD3
|
• heterozygotes exhibit an increased frequency of lung adenocarcinomas after gamma-irradiation
|
• tumor incidence is dramatically increased in gamma-irradiated heterozygotes (85% vs 41% in wild-type control mice), with more lymphomas and epithelial tumors detected in radiation-treated heterozygotes relative to wild-type controls or to unirradiated groups
• more lymphomas and epithelial tumors are observed in radiation-treated heterozygotes relative to wild-type controls or to unirradiated groups
• gamma-irradiation induces a high frequency of thyroid gland atypical hyperplasia and intraepithelial adenomas, and enhances the formation of lung cancers, germ cell tumors and stromal cell tumors in the testis (Leydig cell tumors) and ovary
|
• 12% of heterozygotes develop gonad tumors, including sex-cord stromal cell tumors (7%) and germ cell tumors (5%)
• heterozygotes exhibit an increased frequency of germ cell tumors and stromal cell tumors in the testis (Leydig cell tumors) and ovary after gamma-irradiation
|
• heterozygotes exhibit an increased frequency of Leydig cell tumors after gamma-irradiation
|
• heterozygotes exhibit an earlier tumor onset
|
cellular
• MEFs and tumor cellss derived from heterozygous mutant mice show an increased rate of chromosome aberrations, including chromosome end-to-end fusions and fragmentations, as well as loss of telomeres at the fusion sites
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• heterozygotes irradiated with gamma-rays at a dosage of 8 Gy exhibit a significantly shorter life span than wild-type controls
|
respiratory system
• heterozygotes exhibit an increased frequency of lung adenocarcinomas after gamma-irradiation

|
endocrine/exocrine glands
