Access through your institution Buy or subscribe To establish a suitable model, the authors crossed a mouse in which the liver activator protein (LAP) promoter drives expression of the
tetracycline transactivating protein (tTA) in liver cells, with a mouse in which MYC is under control of the tetracycline response element (which is bound by tTA) — producing the
LAP-tTA/tet-off-MYC mouse. Only mice expressing both the _Lap_ and _Myc_ transgenes and not treated with doxycycline — which also regulates tTA — expressed MYC and developed hepatocellular
carcinomas. As liver tumours are usually refractory to therapy, the authors expected that inactivation of MYC in the mice with established liver tumours would be ineffective in causing
tumour regression. However, this was not the case, 50 transgenic mice moribund with liver tumours showed rapid and sustained tumour regression when treated with doxycycline to inactivate
MYC. This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your institution Subscribe to this journal Receive 12 print issues and online access
