Elevated proto-oncogene expression in polycystic kidneys of the C57BL/6J (cpk) mouse.
1 Feb 1991
Abstract excerpt
Polycystic kidney disease in the C57BL/6J (cpk) mouse is an autosomal recessive disorder which leads to the rapid development of renal cysts and kidney failure during the first 3 to 4 postnatal weeks. Previously, we showed that the cystic kidneys of affected mice have abnormally elevated levels of c-myc mRNA. In the study presented here, it is shown that mRNAs for the proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-Kiras, as well as...
