Abstract excerpt
Transgenic mice that expressed v-fos exclusively in the epidermis by means of a human keratin K1-based targeting vector (HK1.fos) developed preneoplastic epidermal hyperplasia and hyperkeratosis after long latency and an associated wound promotion stimulus. To assess the requirements for papilloma formation and malignant conversion and determine the sensitivity to a chemical promotion stimulus, HK1.fos mice were...
