Refining OVCAR‐3 xenograft models of peritoneal carcinomatosis in nu/nu mice: Comparative intraperitoneal implantation strategies and the role of basement membrane matrix

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A refined murine model of advanced ovarian cancer was established by comparing localized preperitoneal implantation and intraperitoneal injection of OVCAR‐3Luc cells. While localized implantation showed limited tumor persistence, intraperitoneal delivery with BME produced sustained diffuse dissemination confirmed by BLI and histology, providing a ...
