Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple intestinal neoplasia caused by a mutation in the murine homolog of the APC gene.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mouse lineage that exhibits an autosomal dominantly inherited predisposition to multiple intestinal neoplasia (Min) was described and linkage analysis showed that the murine homolog of the APC gene (mApc) was tightly linked to the Min locus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic identification of Mom-1, a major modifier locus affecting Min-induced intestinal neoplasia in the mouse.

TL;DR: The genetic mapping of a locus that strongly modifies tumor number in Min/+ animals is reported, and this gene, Mom-1 (Modifier of Min-1), maps to distal chromosome 4 and controls about 50% of genetic variation in tumorNumber in two intraspecific backcrosses.
Journal Article

Loss of Apc+ in Intestinal Adenomas from Min Mice

TL;DR: Allelic loss at the ApC locus in spontaneously occurring intestinal adenomas from mice heterozygous for the ApcMin nonsense mutation was analyzed using a site-specific quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay.
Journal ArticleDOI

ApcMin: A mouse model for intestinal and mammary tumorigenesis

TL;DR: Min mice provide a good animal model for studying the role of Apc and interacting genes in the initiation and progression of intestinal and mammary tumorigenesis and can be increased in an age-specific manner by treatment with ethylnitrosourea (ENU).
Journal ArticleDOI

Corrections and Clarifications: Multiple Intestinal Neoplasia Caused By a Mutation in the Murine Homolog of the APC Gene

TL;DR: In this paper, a mouse lineage that exhibits an autosomal dominantly inherited predisposition to multiple intestinal neoplasia (Min) was described and linkage analysis showed that the murine homolog of the APC gene (mApc) was tightly linked to the Min locus.
