Treatment of female C57BL/6J (B6) mice carrying the mutant Min allele of the adenomatous polyposis coli (Apc) gene with ethylnitrosourea (ENU) results in approximately 90% of mice developing an average of three mammary tumors within 65 days. As a first step in the identification of loci modifying susceptibility to ENU-induced mammary tumors and hyperplasias, we have tested ENU-treated Apc(Min)/+ (Min/+) mice on...
