Establishment and Validation of an Orthotopic Metastatic Mouse Model of Colorectal Cancer
Metastases are largely responsible for cancer deaths in solid tumors due to the lack of effective therapies against disseminated disease, and there is an urgent need to fill this gap. This study demonstrates an orthotopic colorectal cancer (CRC) mouse model system to develop spontaneous metastasis in vivo and compare its reproducibility against human CRC. IGF1R-dependent GEO human CRC cells wer...
متن کاملCurcumin Inhibits Tumor Growth and Angiogenesis in an Orthotopic Mouse Model of Human Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer is a malignant neoplasm originating from transformed cells arising in tissues forming the pancreas. The best chemotherapeutic agent used to treat pancreatic cancer is the gemcitabine. However, gemcitabine treatment is associated with many side effects. Thus novel strategies involving less toxic agents for treatment of pancreatic cancer are necessary. Curcumin is one such agent...
متن کاملVEGF-C ShRNA inhibits pancreatic cancer growth and lymphangiogenesis in an orthotopic fluorescent nude mouse model.
The aim of this study was to assess the inhibitory efficacy of short hairpin RNA (ShRNA) targeting vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) in an orthotopic pancreatic cancer mouse model. BxPC-3 human pancreatic cancer cells expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) were orthotopically implanted onto the pancreas of nude mice. All mice were randomly divided into four groups when the avera...
متن کاملBioluminescent orthotopic model of pancreatic cancer progression.
Pancreatic cancer has an extremely poor five-year survival rate of 4-6%. New therapeutic options are critically needed and depend on improved understanding of pancreatic cancer biology. To better understand the interaction of cancer cells with the pancreatic microenvironment, we demonstrate an orthotopic model of pancreatic cancer that permits non-invasive monitoring of cancer progression. Luci...
متن کاملDynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of an orthotopic pancreatic cancer mouse model.
Dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) has been limitedly used for orthotopic pancreatic tumor xenografts due to severe respiratory motion artifact in the abdominal area. Orthotopic tumor models offer advantages over subcutaneous ones, because those can reflect the primary tumor microenvironment affecting blood supply, neovascularization, and tumor cell invasion. We have...
