VEGF-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 کاملPreclinical fluorescent mouse models of pancreatic cancer
Here we describe our cumulative experience with the development and preclinical application of several highly fluorescent, clinically-relevant, metastatic orthotopic mouse models of pancreatic cancer. These models utilize the human pancreatic cancer cell lines which have been genetically engineered to selectively express high levels of the bioluminescent green fluorescent (GFP) or red fluoresce...
متن کاملA novel red fluorescent protein orthotopic pancreatic cancer model for the preclinical evaluation of chemotherapeutics.
BACKGROUND Realistic models of pancreatic cancer are necessary to develop effective drugs for the disease. More aggressive tumor models enhanced by brighter fluorescent biomarkers to follow the disease in real time would enhance the ability to predict accurately the effect of novel therapeutics on this particularly malignant human cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A novel, highly fluorescent, red...
متن کاملReal-time imaging of tumor progression in a fluorescent orthotopic mouse model of thyroid cancer.
There is a need for a clinically relevant mouse model of thyroid cancer that enables real-time, non-invasive monitoring of tumor growth, progression, and drug response over time. Human thyroid cancer cell lines NPA (papillary) and KAK-1 (anaplastic) were stably transfected to express either red or green fluorescent protein. Cancer cells were injected into the thyroid glands of 8-week-old athymi...
