Mouse models of lung cancer.
Human lung cancer is responsible for approximately 30% of all cancer deaths worldwide with >160,000 deaths in the United States alone annually. Recent advances in the identification of novel mutations relevant to lung cancer from a myriad of genomic studies might translate into meaningful diagnostic and therapeutic progress. Towards this end, a genetic model animal system that can validate the ...
متن کاملMouse models for human lung cancer.
In recent years several new mouse models for lung cancer have been described. These include models for both non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Tumorigenesis in these conditional mouse tumor models can be initiated in adult mice through Cre-recombinase-induced activation of oncogenic mutations in a subset of the cells. They present a marked improvement over mou...
متن کاملRadiation-guided drug delivery to mouse models of lung cancer.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to achieve improved cancer-specific delivery and bioavailability of radiation-sensitizing chemotherapy using radiation-guided drug delivery. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Phage display technology was used to isolate a recombinant peptide (HVGGSSV) that binds to a radiation-inducible receptor in irradiated tumors. This peptide was used to target nab-paclitaxel to ir...
متن کاملProgress and applications of mouse models for human lung cancer.
The continued progress of modelling lung cancer in mice has led not only to new means of understanding the molecular pathways governing human lung cancer, but it has also created a vast reservoir of alternative tools to test treatments against this malignancy. More sophisticated somatic mouse models for nonsmall cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer and pulmonary squamous cell carcinoma have...
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...
