Abstract excerpt
Mouse radiation-induced acute myeloid leukaemias (AMLs) which arose in a (CBA/H x C57BL/6) genetic background have a 45% incidence of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 4. Frequent chromosome 4 LOH in mouse radiation-induced (C57BL/6 x RF/J) thymic lymphomas (TLs) is associated with promoter/exon 1 region hypermethylation of the remaining p15INK4b and p16INK4a alleles, so this may be common to mouse...
