• 100% of mice induced with tamoxifen at P0 and P1 develop medulloblastoma with a median onset of morbidity of 63 days of age
• medullablastomas of tamoxifen treated mice show extensive and abnormal vascularization and highly differentiated tumor cells surrounding a perivascular tumor stem cell niche that is not seen in single Trp53 conditional mutants
• blood clots are often seen in the lumen of abnormal blood vessels
• medulloblastoma initiates from a perivascular tumor stem cell niche
• medulloblastomas of tamoxifen treated mice acquire somatic inactivation of Ptch1 and show expression signatures of sonic hedgehog subgroup medulloblastoma
|
• 18 of 26 mice treated with tamoxifen at P0 and P1 develop gliomas in the forebrain and brain stem
