The Genetics of Susceptibility to RIM-Induced Plasmacytomagenesis
BALB/cAn mice are susceptible to the induction of plasmacytomas (PCTs) by the intraperitoneal injection of pristane. An average of 60% of the mice inoculated with pristane develop tumors with a mean latent per...

Synergy of an IgH Promoter-Enhancer-Driven c-myc/v-Ha-ras Retrovirus and Pristane in the Induction of Murine Plasmacytomas
Intraperitoneal injection of BALBc/An mice with a single 0.5 ml dose of the mineral oil pristane leads to the appearance of malignant Ig-secreting (usually IgA) plasma cells in 25% of mice after minimal latent...

Rapid Induction of Plasmacytomas in Mice by Pristane and a Murine Recombinant Retrovirus Containing an Avian v-myc and a Defective raf Oncogene
Plasma cell tumors can be induced in genetically susceptible BALB/cAn mice by the intraperitoneal injection of various kinds of mineral (paraffin) oils or available components of these oils. Currently, the mos...
