Melanomas are promising targets for immunotherapy, as they express a number of tissue-specific antigens against which immune responses can be elicited. We have previously described transgenic mice in which malignant cutaneous melanomas are produced.

Murine dendritic cells (DCs) are widely used for experimental vaccinations in mouse models. A high-yield method for freezing and thawing batches of these cells, if compatible with retention of cell immunophenotype, would reduce the time required for

The expression of cell-specialization genes is likely to be changing in tumor cells as their differentiation declines. Functional changes in these genes might yield unusual peptide epitopes with anti-tumor potential and could occur without modificati

The decline in cell differentiation commonly associated with malignant progression may be due in part to an increase in alternative splicing of the pre-mRNAs of tissue-specific genes. As a necessary basis for investigating this possibility in a murin

The c2j albino mutation at the mouse tyrosinase locus arose spontaneously in the C57BL/6 inbred strain and causes complete absence of melanin synthesis, as does the "classical" c mutation of long-established albino inbred strains. Sequence analysis o

Tyr-SV40E transgenic mice are specifically susceptible to melanoma due to expression of the oncogene in pigment cells. Mice of the more susceptible lines die young of early-onset eye melanomas, when skin melanomas are still infrequent and benign. To

Eye tumors of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) have been thought generally to be benign, whereas choroidal ones are malignant. To test this assumption in mice, the W/Wv (Kit) mutant genotype was introduced into melanoma-prone transgenic mice whos

The W/Kit mouse locus, affecting proliferation and survival of pigment cells, blood cells, and germ cells, is known to encode a tyrosine kinase growth factor receptor and is considered a protooncogene; yet it has not heretofore been causally implicat

Genetically albino mouse eggs were injected with an inducible transgene comprising the wild-type tyrosinase (monophenol, L-dopa: oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.14.18.1) cDNA and the metallothionein gene promoter in the expectation that the transgene wou

We have isolated and characterized tyrosinase-specific cDNAs from wild-type mouse skin, to provide a basis for the structural and functional analysis of mutations at the mouse tyrosinase-encoding (Tyr) locus. The cDNAs were synthesized by the polymer
