Generation of a Mouse Model of Von Hippel–Lindau Kidney Disease Leading to Renal Cancers by Expression of a Constitutively Active Mutant of HIF1α
10 Sept 2011
Abstract excerpt
Renal cancers are highly aggressive and clinically challenging, but a transgenic mouse model to promote pathologic studies and therapeutic advances has yet to be established. Here, we report the generation of a transgenic mouse model of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) renal cancer termed the TRACK model (transgenic model of cancer of the kidney). TRACK mice specifically express a mutated, constitutively active HIF1α in...
