Abstract excerpt
Inbred strains of mice differ in susceptibility to colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CA-CRC). We tested 10 inbred strains of mice for their response to azoxymethane/dextran sulfate sodium-induced CA-CRC and identified a bimodal inter-strain distribution pattern when tumor multiplicity was used as a phenotypic marker of susceptibility. The FVB/NJ strain was particularly susceptible showing a higher tumor...
