Expression of a retinoblastoma transgene results in dwarf mice.

Abstract excerpt

Introduction of the normal retinoblastoma gene (RB) into different tumor cells possessing inactivated RB genes suppresses their tumorigenicity in nude mice. These results suggest that RB replacement is a potential strategy for developing future clinical treatments of cancer. In a transgenic mouse model, we found that the quantity of RB protein in a given cell may play an important role in dictating its effect....
