| Approximately 85% of the compound mutant females develop focal mammary tumors at 6-10 months of age. Both virgin and breeder mice develop tumors. Approximately 37% of tumor-bearing mice develop metastatic disease to the lung. High expression of neu is detected in tumor tissue while very low levels are found in lung and ovary.

Former Names B6.FVB-Tg(MMTVneu-OT-I/OT-II)CBnel Tg(Trp53R172H)8512Jmr/J (Changed: 15-NOV-07 ) Type Congenic; Mutant Strain; Targeted Mutation; Species laboratory mouse Generation N10+ (18-JAN-08) Donating Investigator Brad Nelson, BC Cancer Agency Description
These compound transgenic mice carry a rat Erbb2/HER-2/neu oncogene tagged with ovalbumin epitopes OT-I and OT-II, which are recognized by T cell receptors, under the control of the MMTV promoter (termed fusion protein neuOT-I/OT-II). In addition, this strain carries a mouse Trp53 mini-gene, harboring a G to A point mutation in codon 172 (changing Arg to His; R172H) driven by the rat whey acidic protein promoter.Approximately 85% of compound mutant females develop focal mammary tumors at 6-10 months of age. Both virgin and breeder mice develop tumors. Approximately 37% of tumor-bearing mice develop metastatic disease to the lung. High expression of neu is detected in tumor tissue while very low levels are found in lung and ovary.
Female mice carrying only the neuOT-I/OT-II mutation develop focal mammary tumors at approximately 18 months of age.
This strain may be useful in studies of cancer immunotherapy.
Development
This compound mutant strain carries two independently-created transgenes that were later intercrossed. One construct/line was designed to tag T cell receptor-recognized ovalbumin epitopes SIINFEKL and ISQAVHAAHAEINEAGR with the rat Erbb2/HER-2/neu oncogene, creating a fusion protein under the control of an MMTV promoter (termed neuOT-I/OT-II). The vector was injected into C57BL/6 oocytes. Line C was selected for further studies based on mammary-specific expression and favorable tumor latency and frequency. This line was maintained on a C57BL/6 background. The second transgene contributes the rat whey acidic protein promoter driven mouse Trp53 mini-gene that carries a point mutation in codon 172 (CGC to CAC; Arg172His). This transgenic line was generated by microinjection into FVB mouse embryos and backcrossed to C57BL/6 for more than ten generations by the donating investigator. These independent transgenic strains were interbred to produce this bi-transgenic line.
