neoplasm
• doxycycline (dox) treated mice rapidly develop invasive urothelial cancer
• tumors of dox treated mice are high-grade urothelial carcinomas, grow mostly with a solid, non-glandular pattern and show blunt cellular atypia and focal glandular differentiation
• tumors invade the lamina and muscularis propria
• marker analysis indicates that tumors are related to human basal BLCA3 subtype

renal/urinary system
• doxycycline (dox) treated mice rapidly develop invasive urothelial cancer
• tumors of dox treated mice are high-grade urothelial carcinomas, grow mostly with a solid, non-glandular pattern and show blunt cellular atypia and focal glandular differentiation
• tumors invade the lamina and muscularis propria
• marker analysis indicates that tumors are related to human basal BLCA3 subtype
|
• 12 of 18 mice develop unilateral or bilateral hydronephrosis as early as 2 weeks after dox treatment due to obstruction of the upper ureter by tumor masses
|
• due to bladder tumors in dox treated mice
