Eµ-myc transgenic mice carry a constitutively overexpressed c-myc oncogene and develop B-lineage lymphomas. Previous studies have shown that c-myc overexpression can lead to in vitro apoptosis. Here, we investigated the in vivo effects of altered c-myc expression on cell proliferation versus death i

## Abstract Among the proto‐oncogenes examined by northern blot analysis, c‐__myc__, c‐Ha‐__ras__, c‐__fos__, and c‐__raf__‐1 have been reported to be activated in rat liver cell carcinomas. However, there are relatively few reports on proto‐oncogene expression in altered hepatic foci (a) early dur
## Abstract Persistent infection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) can lead to a high risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCV core protein plays important roles in HCV‐related hepatocarcinogenesis, because mice carrying the core protein exhibit multicentric HCCs without hepatic inflammation and fibro
It has previously been shown that transgenic female mice expressing TGF1 under control of regulatory elements of the whey-acidic protein (WAP) gene were unable to lactate. This was due to the increased apoptosis of the cells committed to the lobular-lactogenic phenotype. Our goal was to determine w
