Pathology Image Detail

Caption

Mammary gland: this photomicrograph illustrates the morphology of the center of the neoplasm. Neoplastic cells form thick trabeculae with occasional central liquefactive necrosis (comedo pattern) and a few small secondary lumens.

Description

Adenocarcinoma, solid, with secondary lumens, mammary gland

Age at Necropsy

330 days

Notes

This neoplasm arose in a mouse that was bitransgenic for Tgfa and Notch4. The phenotype of this neoplasm is consistent with that of a neoplasm arising in a mouse transgenic for Notch4.
