neoplasm
• high-grade mammary carcinomas with both inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity, with features of both luminal and basal subtypes
• tumors are of high grade, solid morphology and express varying levels of estrogen receptor alpha
|
• multiparous mice develop mammary tumors with 80% penetrance and a median latency of 314 days
• however, no tumors are seen in nulliparous mice up to 2 years of age and nulliparous mice do not show increased Espl1 expression as is seen in multiparous mice
• four types of mammary tumors are seen; spindle-like, solid, glandular, and squamous
• mice develop regions of carcinosarcomas or epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) tumors
• rapid tumor progression is due to increased early cellular proliferation coupled with accumulation of DNA damage
|
cellular
• chromosomes in transgene expressing cells are thinner
|
aneuploidy
(
J:216267
)
• mice progressively accumulate aneuploidy in the parous mammary epithelia and tumors show aneuploidy
|
• genomic instability accumulates in mammary epithelial cells of mutants before tumorigenesis
• mammary epithelial cell cultures at passage 0 from multiparous mice show an increase in micro-nuclei, multinucleated cells, chromosome bridges, and aberrant numbers of centrosomes
• mammary epithelial cells from parous mice show a 34% increase in premature sister chromatid separation
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• at 6 months of age, post lactating mammary glands of females weaned on day 1 have delayed involution compared to wild-type females
|
• high-grade mammary carcinomas with both inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity, with features of both luminal and basal subtypes
• tumors are of high grade, solid morphology and express varying levels of estrogen receptor alpha
|
• multiparous mice develop mammary tumors with 80% penetrance and a median latency of 314 days

• four types of mammary tumors are seen; spindle-like, solid, glandular, and squamous
• mice develop regions of carcinosarcomas or epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) tumors
• rapid tumor progression is due to increased early cellular proliferation coupled with accumulation of DNA damage
|
• at 6 months of age, post lactating mammary glands of females weaned on day 1 appear severely hyperplastic
• at 12 months of age, mice develop small masses of mammary hyperplasia, large amounts of immune reaction, and presence of hyperproliferative stroma
