mortality/aging
• 80% die by 16 months of age
|
growth/size/body
• noted as mice age
|
digestive/alimentary system
• grossly distended by large polyps
|
• all mice >6 months of age have macroscopic gastrointestinal polyps; majority are found in glandular stomach with equal distribution in fundus, antrum, and pylorus
• in most animals, 1-3 large polyps (20-30 mm in diameter) originate in pylorus and protrude into duodenum
• all polyps have extensive well-developed smooth muscle component originating from central stalk contiguous with muscularis mucosa
|
• results from protrusion of large polyps into lumen
|
neoplasm
• seen in one animal; incidence similar to age-matched controls
|
• small number of tumors and neoplasias are observed in various organs including multiple liver adenomas in mice 6-20 months of age; incidence similar to age-matched controls
