| abstract |
Non-mammalian, transgenic animals, e.g. flies, that exhibit neoplastic phenotypes, i.e. spontaneously produce metastatic tumors, are provided. Also provided are methods of using the subject transgenic non-mammalian animals to identify compounds having activity with respect to cellular proliferative, and particularly neoplastic, diseases. Finally, kits from screening compounds for anti-neoplastic activity are provided. |
