The mouse cancer model 'Multi-Hit' allows for the evaluation of oncogene cooperativities in tumor development based on stochastic Cre-recombination events. Cells with cooperating oncogenes are positively selected and give rise to tumors. The approach is used to study Ras downstream effector pathways in tumorigenesis.
