Abstract excerpt
Bcl11b is a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor gene and expressed in many tissues such as thymus, brain and skin. Irradiated Bcl11b+/- heterozygous mice mostly develop thymic lymphomas, but the preference of Bcl11b inactivation for thymic lymphomas remains to be addressed. We produced Bcl11b+/- heterozygous and Bcl11b wild-type mice of p53+/- background and compared their incidence of gamma-ray induced thymic...
