Mouse-Derived Isograft Tumor Models (MDI)
Our proprietary mouse-derived isograft tumor models (MDI) allow drug efficacy testing in a setting that recapitulates the original tumor very closely. Tumor tissue was isolated from mice with cancer, and the tissue was engrafted for propagation into other mice – also called tumor homograft model. Mouse isograft models enable the investigation of interactions between cells, stroma, and the tumor environment during cancer progression.
While cell line-derived syngeneic tumor models are based on cultured cell lines, our proprietary mouse-derived isograft (MDI) models are propagated in mice only. Hence, the major advantage of these novel spontaneous-derived or carcinogen-induced MDI tumor models is preserving the primary tumor phenotype and intratumoral immune cell populations.
- Derived from spontaneous tumors or carcinogen-induced tumors
- Allow for the identification of biomarkers
- Efficacy testing with high predictive value for patient-derived xenograft studies
- All isograft tumor model projects follow meticulous documentation per GV-Solas requirements and in line with ISO 9001 certification
- Every in vivo project is concluded with custom-tailored reports written by PhD-level medical writers
- Clients will be working with one team of scientists throughout the MDI project.
