Because allelotype analysis of tumors has been important in the identification of new tumor suppressor genes, here we studied loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in a well-defined animal experimental system. We analyzed spontaneous liver tumors from C3HHc x C57BL/6J (B6C3F1) mice and urethane-induced hepatocellular tumors from (C3H/He x Mus spretus) x C57BL/6JBy (HSB) interspecific mice. A total of 95 different genetic markers were tested: 13 in 24 B6C3F1 tumors, 76 in 58 HSB tumors, and six in both groups. Minisatellite finger-printing analysis detected one case of LOH and less than 1% genomic rearrangements in polymorphic and nonpolymorphic bands, respectively. There were no changes at hepatocellular susceptibility loci or at markers homologous to loci frequently lost in human hepatocellular carcinomas. Therefore, our results suggest that LOH and genomic rearrangements are uncommon in mouse hepatocellular tumors.

D008810 Mice, Inbred C57BL One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.

D009115 Muridae A family of the order Rodentia containing 250 genera including the two genera Mus (MICE) and Rattus (RATS), from which the laboratory inbred strains are developed. The fifteen subfamilies are SIGMODONTINAE (New World mice and rats), CRICETINAE, Spalacinae, Myospalacinae, Lophiomyinae, ARVICOLINAE, Platacanthomyinae, Nesomyinae, Otomyinae, Rhizomyinae, GERBILLINAE, Dendromurinae, Cricetomyinae, MURINAE (Old World mice and rats), and Hydromyinae.

D012091 Repetitive Sequences, Nucleic Acid Sequences of DNA or RNA that occur in multiple copies. There are several types: INTERSPERSED REPETITIVE SEQUENCES are copies of transposable elements (DNA TRANSPOSABLE ELEMENTS or RETROELEMENTS) dispersed throughout the genome. TERMINAL REPEAT SEQUENCES flank both ends of another sequence, for example, the long terminal repeats (LTRs) on RETROVIRUSES. Variations may be direct repeats, those occurring in the same direction, or inverted repeats, those opposite to each other in direction. TANDEM REPEAT SEQUENCES are copies which lie adjacent to each other, direct or inverted (INVERTED REPEAT SEQUENCES).

D012150 Polymorphism, Restriction Fragment Length Variation occurring within a species in the presence or length of DNA fragment generated by a specific endonuclease at a specific site in the genome. Such variations are generated by mutations that create or abolish recognition sites for these enzymes or change the length of the fragment.
