With the help of various mouse models for pancreatic cancer, they have succeeded in elucidating the molecular pathways of tumor development in detail and have gained a better understanding of how various characteristics of the disease arise.

«New MRI approach detects early liver tumors in mouse model of human disease.»

It should be noted, however, that while a study on senescent cell ablation in genetically normal mice would provide at least some evidence on the effect of senescent cells (and their ablation) on promoting cancer, even such a study would likely show less effect than could be anticipated in a large mammal model, since even normally - aging mice rarely suffer metastatic disease to the extent of aging humans, as sheer primary tumor volume is generally sufficient to be fatal to mice.

These kind of mice are an extraordinary resource for modeling human disease; for instance, research has found that mice that are genetically mutated to carry the BRCA1 gene (a human breast cancer gene) behave more similarly to human cancer patients than those mice who have had a tumor physically transplanted in.
