Background  Lung cancer is the leading cause of morbidity and death worldwide. Although the available lung cancer animal models have been informative and further propel our understanding of human lung cancer, they still do not fully recapitulate the complexities of human lung cancer. The pathogenesis of lung cancer remains highly elusive because of its aggressive biologic nature and considerable heterogeneity, compared to other cancers. The association of   C ul4 A   amplification with aggressive tumor growth and poor prognosis has been suggested. Our previous study suggested that   C ul4 A   is oncogenic in vitro, but its oncogenic role in vivo has not been studied.    Methods  Viral delivery approaches have been used extensively to model cancer in mouse models. In our experiments, we used Cre‐recombinase induced overexpression of the   C ul4A  gene in transgenic mice to study the role of   C ul4A  on lung tumor initiation and progression and have developed a new model of lung tumor development in mice harboring a conditionally expressed allele of   C ul4A .    Results  Here we show that the use of a recombinant adenovirus expressing Cre‐recombinase (“ A deno C re”) to induce   C ul4A  overexpression in the lungs of mice allows controls of the timing and multiplicity of tumor initiation. Following our mouse models, we are able to study the potential role of   C ul4A  in the development and progression in pulmonary adenocarcinoma as well.    Conclusion  Our findings indicate that   C ul4A  is oncogenic in vivo, and this mouse model is a tool in understanding the mechanisms of   C ul4A  in human cancers and for testing experimental therapies targeting   C ul4A .
