Cryoelectron Microscopy of Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2004 ABSTRACT Cryoelectron microscopy of Mouse mammary tumor virus , a Betaretrovirus , provided information about glycoprotein structure and core formation. The virions showed the broad range of diameters typical of retroviruses.

Conditionally reprogrammed normal and transformed mouse mammary epithelial cells display a progenitor-cell-like phenotype. [PDF]
PLoS 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]
PLoS ONE, 2012 We have generated a new and improved transgenic mouse strain that permits a temporally controlled expression of transgenes throughout mammary gland development.

Low prevalence of human mammary tumor virus (HMTV) in breast cancer patients from Myanmar
Infectious 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]
Cancer 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
Retrovirology, 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.

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

Apc mutation enhances PyMT-induced mammary tumorigenesis.
PLoS ONE, 2011 The Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) tumor suppressor gene is silenced by hypermethylation or mutated in up to 70% of human breast cancers. In mouse models, Apc mutation disrupts normal mammary development and predisposes to mammary tumor formation ...

Cells, 2013 Tumorigenesis is often described as a result of accumulated mutations that lead to growth advantage and clonal expansion of mutated cells. There is evidence in the literature that cancer cells are influenced by the microenvironment.
