mortality/aging
• all mice die prior to 500 days
|
behavior/neurological
• 85% of mice
|
neoplasm
• 90% of mice develop medulloblastomas
|
• mice develop tumors outside of the central nervous system consisting of soft-tissue sarcomas
|
• 90% of mice develop malignant gliomas with astrocytic characteristics
• 40% of high-grade astrocytic gliomas exhibit necrosis, pseudopalisading tumors cells, high degree of nuclear atypia, and microvascular proliferation similar to human glioblastoma multiforme
• tumors are relatively heterogeneous histological and in lineage marker expression
|
nervous system
N |
• at 2 months of age, brain cells in the subventricular zone and progenitor cells exhibit normal growth rates
|
• 90% of mice develop medulloblastomas
|
• 90% of mice develop malignant gliomas with astrocytic characteristics
• 40% of high-grade astrocytic gliomas exhibit necrosis, pseudopalisading tumors cells, high degree of nuclear atypia, and microvascular proliferation similar to human glioblastoma multiforme
