It affects about 1% of the adult population worldwide and is prevalent in women. Its cause is of unknown origin, but we know that is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Pristane-induced arthritis (PIA) in mice is …

Abstract
In an attempt to further elucidate the involvement of inflammation in carcinogenesis, genetically selected mice to develop an maximum (AIRmax) or minimal (AIRmin)acute inflammatory reaction are used in several studies that promote the induction of tumor initiation and progression in the skin. AIRmax mice are significantly more resistant to skin carcinogenesis than mice AIRmin. The gene …
