Tumor Biology Unit

TCDM offers know-how and research services in tumor modeling in vivo. The available models include

  • Human cancer cells inoculated in immunocompromized mice or rats (tumor xenograft). Tumor lines can be implanted subcutaneously or orthotopically
  • DMBA induced mammary cancer in mice and rats
  • Genetically modified mouse tumor models
  • Mammary gland transplantation models

 

The models are valuable to support preclinical research and assessment of anticancer treatments.
