Comparative Genomic hybridization of gamma-irradiated T-cell lymphomas. Mus musculus

This analysis compares the signal of DNA from T-cell lymphoblastic lymphomas induced by gamma-irradiation versus normal thymuses Keywords: Tumor profiles, comparison of tumoral versus wilf-type tissues, lymphomas and leukemias Overall design: C57BL/6J animals were maintained in our animal facilities following the appropriate ethical recommendations from our institutions. For tumor induction, 4-week-old mice of both sexes were exposed to four weekly doses of 1.75 Gy/dose of ionizing gamma radiation. Treated mice were observed daily until moribund, then sacrificed and autopsied. DNA, RNA and proteins were isolated from these samples using routine procedures.
