Recent technological advances have opened the door for the fast and cost-effective generation of genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) to study cancer. We describe here a conceptually novel approach for the generation of chimeric GEMMs based on the controlled introduction of various genetic el
Genetically engineered mouse models have been generated to study the molecular basis of prostate cancer (PCa) development, progression, and metastasis. Selection of a prostate-specific promoter, such as the probasin (PB) and prostate specific antigen (PSA) promoters, is critical for generating suffi
New developments in mouse genetics have transformed the field of genetics from a reactive to a proactive science. Current technologies in transgenesis, chromosome engineering, and saturation mutagenesis are introduced. These approaches permit the creation of new mutations and consequent mutant pheno
