Abstract excerpt
beta-Catenin, an oncogene, and P53, a tumor suppressor, are common targets of mutation in human cancers. It has been observed that P53 is often inactivated in tumors involving beta-catenin activation. In an attempt to model this situation in vivo, we crossed the previously characterized MMTV-DeltaN-beta-catenin mouse with the P53 knockout mouse. Female multiparous mice that carry the MMTV-DeltaN-beta-catenin...
