Transgenic Mice Carrying Wild Type Human Her-2 Under the Whey Acidic Promoter

This technology is an animal model designed to help pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries develop Her-2 based vaccines or immunotherapeutic agents. Background & Unmet Need: Her-2 positive breast cancer is a breast cancer that is positive for a protein called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2). Presence of Her-2 promotes the...

Establishment of a Prostate Carcinoma Bone Tumor Model in Mice

This technology is a new tumorigenic cell line from the human prostate carcinoma cell line PC-3. These cell lines, known as PC-3/IF, when implanted in the femurs of nude mice, provide a xenograft tumor model of bone metastatic prostate carcinoma. The PC-3/IF cell lines are highly tumorigenic, with tumor cells replacing the marrow cells in the bone...

Establishment of a Metastatic Prostate Carcinoma Tumor Model in Mice

This technology is a new tumorigenic cell line from the human prostate carcinoma cell line PC-3. These cell lines, known as PC-3/PI, are highly tumorigenic when implanted in the prostate of nude mice, providing a xenograft tumor model of prostate carcinoma. In this model, lymph node metastases form from the primary tumor, similar to what occurs in...
