neoplasm
• extremity sarcomas in mice injected with Ad-Cre invade adjacent skeletal muscle and uterine sarcomas invade the intestinal wall and pancreas
• 20% of mice with large extremity sarcomas develop metastasis to the lungs
|
• 90% of mice injected intramuscularly with an adenovirus expressing Cre recombinase (Ad-Cre) into the extremities develop soft tissue sarcomas after a median time of 3 months
(J:125101)
• high penetrance of soft tissue sarcomas also develops after injection of Ad-Cre into the uterus
(J:125101)
• soft tissue sarcomas present as large solitary masses originating at the site of Ad-Cre injection, and are high-grade spindle cell neoplasms
(J:125101)
• sarcomas show myofibroblastic differentiation with intracytoplasmic filaments with densities
(J:125101)
• gene expression analysis indicates that Ad-Cre induced sarcomas are undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma/malignant fibrous histiocytoma
(J:155389)
