August 1998 in “Carcinogenesis” The study demonstrated that elevated levels of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and polyamines, when combined with a mutant Ha-ras gene, led to spontaneous tumor development in double transgenic mice. These mice, which were bred to carry both K6/ODC and v-Ha-ras transgenes, developed well-differentiated keratoacanthomas, some of which progressed to carcinomas within 2 months. The tumor development was dependent on ODC, as the use of the ODC inhibitor DFMO prevented tumor formation and caused regression. This indicated that ODC overexpression and activated Ha-ras were sufficient for malignant transformation, providing a model to study epithelial tumor development without chemical carcinogens or tumor promoters.
