pubmed:abstractText |
Activated Harvey murine sarcoma virus ras genes were introduced into epidermal cells in vivo by direct application of retroviruses to mouse skin. Subsequent treatment with the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induced benign papillomas, some of which progressed to invasive carcinomas. Initiation with virus was irreversible for at least 4 months, since TPA treatment after this latency period produced papillomas within 4 weeks. Analysis of viral integration sites showed that carcinomas are clonal in origin. Both papillomas and carcinomas express virus-specific ras mRNA and the viral form of ras P21 protein. The results show that activated ras genes can replace chemical carcinogens in initiation of mouse skin carcinogenesis. This system presents a novel approach to in vivo analysis of the biological role of oncogenes in epithelial tumorigenesis.
