mortality/aging
• heterozygotes begin to die at 4 months of age with 50% dying by 6 months of age
|
neoplasm
• in situ carcinomas are seen in both the small and large intestines
• over 50% of lesions in mutants over 12 months of age are tubular adenomas harboring invasive carcinomas
|
• small and large adenomas are seen throughout the intestine
• the number of polyps is increased and the distribution of polyps shifted towards the ileum under specific pathogen-free conditions
|
• compared to ApcMin heterozygotes more lesions are see in the colon, however the overall number of lesions is the same in both lines
|
• 9% of heterozygotes developed mammary adenocanthomas
|
cardiovascular system
• first seen around 4 months of age, associated with decreased life span
|
digestive/alimentary system
• first seen around 4 months of age, associated with decreased life span
|
• rectal prolapse, associated with more severe polyposis in the colon, is seen as early as 4 months of age and is seen in 61% of surviving mutants by 6 months of age
• the prolapse is highly dysplatic and in 10% of these dysplatic areas adenocarcinoma is also seen
• fewer mutants raised in specific pathogen-free conditions developed rectal prolapse
|
• in situ carcinomas are seen in both the small and large intestines
• over 50% of lesions in mutants over 12 months of age are tubular adenomas harboring invasive carcinomas
|
• small and large adenomas are seen throughout the intestine
• the number of polyps is increased and the distribution of polyps shifted towards the ileum under specific pathogen-free conditions
|
• compared to ApcMin heterozygotes more lesions are see in the colon, however the overall number of lesions is the same in both lines
|
hematopoietic system
endocrine/exocrine glands
• 9% of heterozygotes developed mammary adenocanthomas
|
integument
• 9% of heterozygotes developed mammary adenocanthomas
