Mouse Models of Human Cancer Database (MMHCdb)

The Mouse Models of Human Cancer Database (formerly, the Mouse Tumor Biology database) integrates data on the frequency, incidence, genetics, and pathology of neoplastic disorders, emphasizing data on tumors that develop characteristically in different genetically defined strains of mice.

The Mouse Models of Human Cancer Database (formerly, the Mouse Tumor Biology Database) supports the use of the mouse as a model system of human cancers by providing access to information on and data for:

  • spontaneous and induced tumors in mice
  • genetically defined mice (inbred, hybrid, mutant, and genetically engineered strains of mice) in which tumors arise,
  • genetic factors associated with tumor susceptibility in mice,
  • somatic genetic-mutations observed in tumors,
  • Patient Derived Xenograft (PDX) models,

Examples of the data accessible from MMHCdb include:

  • tumor frequency & latency data,
  • tumor genomic data
  • tumor pathology reports and images,
  • associations of models to the scientific literature,
  • links additional on-line cancer resources
