Skin carcinoma development in nontransgenic, K14E6WT, and K14E6I128T mice

Genotype Skin carcinoma incidence (no. of mice with tumors/total no.) Mice with carcinomas (%) Monitoring period (mo) Reference(s) or source
K14E6WT 26/180a 14.4 15 40
K14E6I128T 2/140b 1.4c 20d This study
FVB/N 0/150 <0.7 15 40
FVB/N 0/98 <1 24 27
a

Tumor incidence in K14E6WT line 5737 mice.

b

Tumor incidence in K14E6I128T line 6061 and 6072 mice. Note that one additional carcinoma arose in a K14E6I128T founder mouse (line 6086) that was not bred.

c

The difference between the percentages of K14E6WT and K14E6I128T mice that developed carcinomas was statistically significant (P < 0.0002).

d

Tumors arose at 12 and 20 months.
