Female protein, amyloidosis, and hormonal carcinogenesis in Turkish hamster : differences from Syrian hamster

The Syrian hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) has been widely used as an experimental animal and is a unique model for three sex hormone-regulated events: 1) estrogen-initiated renal carcinogenesis, 2) sex limited expression of amyloidosis, a ubiquitous disease, and 3) sex hormone control of a serum amy...

Zusammenfassung:	The Syrian hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) has been widely used as an experimental animal and is a unique model for three sex hormone-regulated events: 1) estrogen-initiated renal carcinogenesis, 2) sex limited expression of amyloidosis, a ubiquitous disease, and 3) sex hormone control of a serum amyloid P component (SAP) called female protein (FP).
