ErbB2 and ErbB2/IRS2 mice had similar time to tumor formation, tumor histology, and lung metastases. Kaplan-Meier plots of age-matched MMTV-ErbB2/IRS2 bigenic (black line) and MMTV-ErbB2 transgenic (gray line) (a) parous and (b) nulliparous mice. Mean time to tumor formation (MTTF) is shown in days and was measured by weekly palpation. Formation was recorded when first palpable. c H&E of tumors from nulliparous mice representing the histological phenotypes presented. d Immunoblotting of protein lysates from ErbB2 and ErbB2/IRS2 bigenic tumors for expression of IRS1, IRS2, HER2, and downstream signaling pathways. e Lungs of tumor-bearing mice were sectioned, stained with H&E, and analyzed for lung metastases. Numbers represent percentage of mice containing lung lesions to total number of mice analyzed
