Mouse colorectal cancer organoids: Lessons from syngeneic and orthotopic transplantation systems
Colorectal cancer (CRC) organoids provide more accurate and tissue-relevant models compared to conventional two-dimensional cultured cell cultures. Mouse CRC organoids, in particular, offer unique advantages over their human counterparts, as they can be transplanted into immunocompetent mice. These...

description | Colorectal cancer (CRC) organoids provide more accurate and tissue-relevant models compared to conventional two-dimensional cultured cell cultures. Mouse CRC organoids, in particular, offer unique advantages over their human counterparts, as they can be transplanted into immunocompetent mice. These syngeneic transplantation models create a robust system for studying cancer biology in the immunocompetent tumor microenvironment (TME). This article discusses the development and applications of these organoid systems, emphasizing their capacity to faithfully recapitulate in vivo tumor progression, metastasis, and the immune landscape. |
