Genetically engineered mouse models of prostate cancer.
Despite major improvement in treatment of early stage localised prostate cancer, the distinction between indolent tumors and those that will become aggressive, as well as the lack of efficient therapies of advanced prostate cancer, remain major health problems. Genetically engineered mice (GEM) have been extensively used to investigate the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying prostate t...
متن کاملGenetically Engineered Mouse Models for Human Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the world, which is a cause for more solid tumor-related deaths than all other carcinomas combined. More than 170,000 new cas‐ es are diagnosed each year in the United States alone, of whom ~160,000 will eventually die, accounting for nearly 30% of all cancer deaths (Siegel et al., 2012). The annual incidence for lung cancer per 100,000 popul...
متن کاملStem cells in genetically-engineered mouse models of prostate cancer.
The cancer stem cell model proposes that tumors have a hierarchical organization in which tumorigenic cells give rise to non-tumorigenic cells, with only a subset of stem-like cells able to propagate the tumor. In the case of prostate cancer, recent analyses of genetically engineered mouse (GEM) models have provided evidence supporting the existence of cancer stem cells in vivo. These studies s...
متن کاملTranslational therapeutics in genetically engineered mouse models of cancer.
Advances in knowledge of the molecular alterations of human cancers, refinements in technologies for the generation of genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs), and the development of cancer therapies have accelerated in recent years. Progress in these fields provides the foundation for clinically relevant studies to be performed in GEMMs, through which it is possible to glean information on...
متن کاملGenetically engineered mouse models in oncology research and cancer medicine
Genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) have contributed significantly to the field of cancer research. In contrast to cancer cell inoculation models, GEMMs develop de novo tumors in a natural immune-proficient microenvironment. Tumors arising in advanced GEMMs closely mimic the histopathological and molecular features of their human counterparts, display genetic heterogeneity, and are able...
