Immunization of mice against murine mammary tumor virus infection and mammary tumor development.
Formalin-inactivated whole murine mammary tumor virus (MuMTV), VuMTV membranes, the acid-soluble component of MuMTV, and purified MuMTV glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 55,000 (gp55; also designated as gp52) were used as vaccines in an attempt to identify the MuMTV antigen(s) that can protect mice from exogenous MuMTV infection and subsequent tumor development. Formalin-inactivated whole...
متن کاملBALB/Mtv-null mice responding to strong mouse mammary tumor virus superantigens restrict mammary tumorigenesis.
The absence of endogenous mouse mammary tumor viruses (MMTVs) in the congenic mouse strain, BALB/Mtv-null, restricts the early steps of exogenous C3H MMTV infection, preventing the superantigen (Sag) response and mammary tumorigenesis. Here we demonstrate that BALB/Mtv-null mice also resist tumor induction by FM MMTV, which encodes a stronger Sag compared to C3H MMTV. In contrast to infections ...
متن کاملExpression of MDM2 during mammary tumorigenesis.
The MDM2 oncoprotein encodes a 90 kDa nuclear phosphoprotein capable of abrogating the growth suppressive functions of p53 and pRb tumor suppressor proteins by direct interaction. Alternative splicing of MDM2 protein coding sequences has been documented during tumor progression in human ovarian and bladder carcinomas. The aim of this study was to determine whether alternative splicing of MDM2 o...
متن کاملMammary tumorigenesis and tumor morphology in four C3H sublines with or without exogenous mammary tumor virus.
Mammary tumorigenesis was surveyed in retired breeding females in four sublines of the C3H strain: in standard milk-transmitted early oncogenic mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV)-infected C3H/He and C3H/Ki mice, and in standard milk-transmitted early oncogenic MMTV free C3Hf/He and C3Hf/Ki mice. All of 58 C3H/Ki mice and 98% (306 of 309) of the C3H/He mice developed palpable mammary tumors at ave...
متن کاملMammary tumors and mammary tumor virus expression in hybrid mice of strains C57BL and GR
Mammary tumorigenesis in genetic crosses between the high mammary tumor incidence GR and the low incidence C57BL mouse strains is highly correlated with murine mammary tumor virus expression in milk. Although the F1 and first backcross females had a mammary tumor incidence which was consistent with a single dominant gene segregation, the tumor incidence in the critical second backcross segregan...
