Colorectal Cancer Mouse Xenograft Model. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most frequently lethal forms of cancer. Colorectal cancer ranks third among the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the United States.
Humanized mouse models are powerful tools for studying cancer, haematopoiesis, and inflammatory and infectious disease. These models are used to Both athymic nude mice and mouse xenograft models that use human tumor cell lines have been Bevacizumab was effective in Phase III clinical trials for colorectal and renal carcinoma and received. The simplest tumour model is the subcutaneous model, in which cell lines initially derived from human tumours (xenograft model) or mouse tumours.

A renewable tissue resource of phenotypically stable, biologically and ethnically diverse, patient-derived human breast cancer xenograft models.
In particular, orthotopic tumor xenograft mouse models are emerging as the preference for cancer research due to increased clinical relevance over subcutaneous mouse models. These can be grouped into genetically-engineered, chemically-induced, and inoculated models. Patient derived tumor xenografts (PDTX) are created when cancerous tissue from a patient's primary tumor is implanted directly into an immunodeficient mouse.
