Embryonic stem cells derived from various derivatives of the murine 129/J
strain are commonly used in the generation of knockout mice. Topical
twice-weekly treatment of the 129/SvEv subline with either 2 or 5 microg of
12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) for 4 weeks resulted in a
sustained inflammation and hyperplasia. Identically treated C57BL/6 mice
developed weaker inflammatory and hyperplastic responses over the same
treatment course, and did not exhibit a sustained hyperplasia. SSIN mice
treated with either 0.5 or 2 microg of TPA developed a sustained
hyperplasia comparable to that seen in 129/SvEv mice, but a weak
inflammatory response. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) measurements indicated
dramatic infiltrations of the skins of all three murine strains by
neutrophils within 48 h of a single TPA application. MPO activities
remained significantly elevated in the skins of 129/SvEv mice and C57BL/6
mice following eight TPA treatments. In contrast, MPO activities in 8 X
treated SSIN skins were comparable to those measured in solvent controls.
129/SvEv mice readily developed papillomas in two- stage skin
carcinogenesis protocols employing DMBA as the initiator and TPA as the
promoter. Papilloma incidences and multiplicities were dose- responsive
with respect to promoter (using twice weekly applications of 1, 2 or 5
microg of TPA). With a promoting dose of 5 microg of TPA > or = 90% of
the mice developed papillomas within 13 weeks, and maximum tumor
multiplicities were reached within 18 weeks. These latter results, when
compared to the published responses of other murine stocks and strains,
demonstrate that 129/SvEv mice are very sensitive to TPA promotion in
two-stage skin carcinogenesis protocols.
