Conditionally reprogrammed normal and transformed mouse mammary epithelial cells display a progenitor-cell-like phenotype. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Mammary epithelial (ME) cells cultured under conventional conditions senesce after several passages. Here, we demonstrate that mouse ME cells isolated from normal mammary glands or from mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV)-Neu-induced mammary tumors, can be ...

Generation of a novel MMTV-tTA transgenic mouse strain for the targeted expression of genes in the embryonic and postnatal mammary gland. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We have generated a new and improved transgenic mouse strain that permits a temporally controlled expression of transgenes throughout mammary gland development.

PyMT-Maclow: A novel, inducible, murine model for determining the role of CD68 positive cells in breast tumor development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
CD68+ tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are pro-tumorigenic, pro-angiogenic and are associated with decreased survival rates in patients with cancer, including breast cancer.

Low prevalence of human mammary tumor virus (HMTV) in breast cancer patients from Myanmar

open access: yesInfectious Agents and Cancer, 2017
Background Human mammary tumor virus (HMTV) is 90–95% homologous to mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV), one of the causal agents of murine mammary tumors.

Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus Infects Human Cells [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Research, 2005
Abstract Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) has long been speculated to be involved in human breast cancer and more recently in human primary biliary cirrhosis. Despite complete proviral sequences markedly homologous to MMTV being identified in human breast cancer tissue, no convincing evidence has been presented to date that MMTV can ...

Rapid spread of mouse mammary tumor virus in cultured human breast cells

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2007
Background The role of mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) as a causative agent in human breast carcinogenesis has recently been the subject of renewed interest.

Highly Variable Genomic Landscape of Endogenous Retroviruses in the C57BL/6J Inbred Strain, Depending on Individual Mouse, Gender, Organ Type, and Organ Location. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Transposable repetitive elements, named the "TREome," represent ~40% of the mouse genome. We postulate that the germ line genome undergoes temporal and spatial diversification into somatic genomes in conjunction with the TREome activity.

Amplification of mouse mammary tumor virus genomes in non-mammary tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1989
Extra proviral copies of mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) are known to be present in the genomes of certain T-cell lymphomas of mice. Analysis of additional non-mammary tumor cell types known to express MMTV transcripts and antigens revealed the presence of extra acquired MMTV proviruses in a pituitary tumor cell line, a macrophage line, and Leydig ...
