Abstract excerpt
Epidermal keratinocyte cultures were established from newborn mice expressing a null mutation in the p53 gene to explore the contribution of p53 to epidermal growth regulation and neoplasia. Keratinocytes were initiated by transduction with a replication-defective retrovirus encoding the v-rasHa oncogene and grafted onto nude mouse hosts. Tumors arising from keratinocytes heterozygous or null for functional p53...
