Tumorigenicity of Esophageal Cancer Stem Cells (ECSCs) in nude mouse xenograft model
Background and objectives: Modeling cancer in vivo is a very important tool to investigate cancer pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms involved in cancer progression. Laboratory mice are the most common animal used for rebuilding human cancer in vivo. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are the main reason of failure in cancer therapy because of tumor relapse and metastasis. Isolation of cancer stem cell...
متن کاملEffects of epidermal growth factor receptor concentration on tumorigenicity of A431 cells in nude mice.
To test the relationship between the concentration of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors and tumor growth in vivo, we measured the rate of growth of several independently isolated A431 cell lines in athymic mice. This series of A431 clonal variants with differing extents of EGF receptor gene amplification and protein expression were implanted into athymic mice and the time to solid tumor f...
متن کاملRelationship of cell growth behavior in vitro to tumorigenicity in athymic nude mice.
The serum requirements, anchorage requirements, saturation densities, and contact inhibition responses of a variety of mammalian cell lines were determined under uniform conditions. The serum requirement of both transformed and normal cells was a sensitive function of initial plating density. Cloning efficiency on irradiated mouse monolayers was found to be an invalid indicator of contact inhib...
متن کاملAssociation of Chromosomal Alterations with Arsenite-Induced Tumorigenicity of Human HaCaT Keratinocytes in Nude Mice
Inorganic arsenic is a well-documented human carcinogen. Chronic low-dose exposure to inorganic arsenic is associated with an increased incidence of a variety of cancers, including skin, lung, bladder, and liver cancer. Because genetic alterations often occur during cancer development, the objective of this study was to explore what types of genetic alterations were induced by chronic exposure ...
متن کاملFibroblast-dependent tumorigenicity of cells in nude mice: implication for implantation of metastases.
The inadequate nature of the microenvironment is one of several factors considered in the failure of tumor engraftment in athymic mice; in the present work, we have tried to more adequately reconstitute it by injecting tumor cells together with fibroblasts. We have demonstrated that the s.c. co-inoculation of fibroblasts with different kinds of tumor cells of animal origin [rat rhabdomyosarcoma...
