Former Names B6;SJL-Tg(WapHRAS)69Lln YSJL/J (Changed: 15-DEC-04 ) Type Mutant Stock; Transgenic; Additional information on Genetically Engineered Mutant Mice. Species laboratory mouse Generation F28 Donating Investigator Loretta Nielsen, Amyllin Pharmaceuticals Inc. Description
The transgene integrated into the Y chromosome. These transgenics serve as models for male mammary cancer and ras-mediated solid tumors. The transgene also can be used as a Y-chromosome marker. On the B6,SJL background males develop multiple mammary tumors and salivary gland tumors by one year of age. The salivary tumors are adenocarcinomas arising from serous areas of the submandibular gland. The mammary gland tumors are adenosquamous carcinomas. Microscopic lung metastases were present in 14% of tumor bearing animals. On the FVB background males develop multiple mammary tumors at 6-8 weeks. The tumors are adenosquamous carcinomas with multiple foci of squamous differentiation or adenocarcinomas containing glandular tissue. There is no metastasis observed.Development
This transgenic strain was developed in the laboratory of Dr. Loretta Nielsen at Schering-Plough Research, Bloomfield, New Jersey. This strain was originally identified as Wap-ras line 69-2.

| General Note |
On a genetic background that involves C57BL/6, FVB, and SJL, transgenic male mice develop multiple mammary tumors at 6-8 weeks. The tumors are adenosquamous carcinomas with multiple foci of squamous differentiation or adenocarcinomas containing glandular tissue. No metastasis has been observed. On a background that involves C57BL/6 and SJL, transgenic male mice develop multiple mammary tumors and salivary gland tumors by one year of age. The mammary gland tumors are adenosquamous carcinomas. The salivary tumors are adenocarcinomas arising from serous areas of the submandibular gland. In 14% of these tumor bearing animals microscopic lung metastases are present. | ||
| Molecular Note | This transgene contains the murine whey acidic protein promoter and an allele of the human Harvey rat sarcoma viral oncogene gene homolog that contains a point mutation in codon 12. The transgene integrated into the Y chromosome (SJL). [MGI Ref ID J:72262] | ||
