Here, we present a standard pipeline to obtain murine ATC tumors by spontaneous genetically engineered mouse models. Further, we present tumor dynamics and pathological information about the primary and metastasized lesions. This model will help researchers to understand tumorigenesis and facilitate drug discoveries.

Several types of animal models of Hashimoto's thyroiditis have been established, as has spontaneous autoimmune thyroiditis in the NOD mouse. H-2h4 mice are a simple and reliable model for HT induction. This article describes this approach and evaluates the pathological process for a better understanding of the SAT murine model.
