The cervical squamocolumnar junction of normal and dysplastic human xenografts was maintained in SCID-beige mice. Dysplastic tissue maintained a dysplastic morphology, irregular pattern of keratin expression, elevated levels of cellular proliferation, and human papillomavirus type 16 and/or type 18 DNA. Hyperplastic changes of normal xenografts occurred via high-dose estrogen exposure, and through recombinant adenovirus infection, the introduction and stable expression of an exogenous gene was accomplished.
