Mutations in the Patched (Ptch I) gene are responsible for various familial and sporadic cancers. Ptch(neo67/+) mice, in which exons 6 and 7 are deleted, show genetic background-dependent susceptibility to the development of muscle tumors resembling human rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), BALB/c (BALB) is a susceptible strain whereas C57BL/6 (B6) shows resistance. A genome-wide linkage analysis was carried out using Ptch mice produced from B6 x (BALB x 136) backcrosses to identify loci involved in the control of RMS susceptibility, Quantitative trait locus mapping with the censored tumor latency time as the quantitative parameter was used to detect a significant RAMS susceptibility modifier locus, Parms1] (Patched-Associated RMS 1), on chromosome 2 between D2Mit37 and D2Mit102 (LRS = 10). A Kaplan-Meier survival curve revealed that mice with the B6/BALB genotype develop tumors more frequently and much faster as compared to mice homozygous for the B6 allele (P = 0.02). Additional loci not reaching linkage significance were also detected for medulloblastoma resistance. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
