Tsc1-null and Tsc2-null MEFs have reduced tumorigenic potential. Tumor development and survival curves are shown for immunodeficient nude mice after subcutaneous inoculation with 1 × 106 MEFs. Mice receiving Tsc1–/– cells (A) or Tsc2–/– cells (B) had delayed tumor formation and a longer survival than mice receiving control cells. All cells used in B were deficient in tumor suppressor gene TP53.
