De in dit protocol beschreven primaire methode is catheterisatie van de muis blazen, die brede toepassingen voor het inbrengen van cellen of een agent die bestemd zijn voor de lokale levering aan de blaas epitheel heeft. De specifiek protocol hierboven beschreven is geoptimaliseerd voor de korte-termijn studies (~ 10 dagen). Implantatie van de juiste aantal cellen is cruciaal, aangezien een groter aantal cellen resulteert in een snellere tumorgroei en mogelijk verlies van dieren door grote tumorlast. Met 200.000 MB49 ce...

Blaaskanker is de tweede meest voorkomende kanker van het urogenitale kanaal met bijna 75.000 nieuwe gevallen en 15.000 sterfgevallen verwacht in 2012 1. Hoge tarieven van herhaling vereisen levenslange follow-up, die blaaskanker een van de duurste vormen van kanker te behandelen maakt. Blaaskanker dat de spierlaag is binnengedrongen kan uitzaaien naar de lever, de longen of het bot via het lymfestelsel. Multimodale behandeling van gevorderde tumoren resulteert in slechts 20-40% overleving na 5 jaar. Daarom zijn effectieve behandeling strategieën die gericht zijn op het verminderen van de herhaling en de progressie van oppervlakkige blaaskanker evenals het verbeteren van de therapeutische resultaten bij patiënten met gevorderde ziekte dringend nodig. Ontwikkeling van nieuwe therapieën nodig preklinische modellen om de werkzaamheid na de eerste in vitro evaluatie evalueren. De tumormicromilieu kan aanzienlijk invloed op de ontwikkeling en het reactievermogen van kanker, die de noodzaak voor preclinic hoogtepuntenal modellen waarin tumoren ontstaan ​​of kan in het orgaan van oorsprong worden vastgesteld. Een benadering is de ontwikkeling van transgene modellen waarin tumoren spontaan ontstaan ​​of kunnen worden geïnduceerd in een orgaan-specifieke wijze. Een uitstekende protocol van een transgeen blaaskanker model is onlangs gepubliceerd 2. Het nadeel van transgene modellen is dat tumoren vaak langzaam en met minder uniformiteit dan gewenst ontwikkelen. Bovendien onderhoudskosten voor een kolonie te worden beschouwd. Een alternatief voor transgene modellen orthotope implantatie van tumorcellen, die het voordeel van korte termijnen voor tumor vestiging in commercieel verkrijgbare muizen heeft. Terwijl sommige menselijke blaaskanker cellijnen orthotopically kan worden gekweekt (wij hebben met succes gebruikt UM-UC-3), kan het wenselijk zijn om tumoren te vestigen in immunocompetente muizen zijn. Twee muizen blaaskanker cellijnen die orthotopically groeien zijn MBT-2 en MB49 3. Omdat MBT-2 cellen worden besmet met het replicerentype C retrovirus 4, hebben we gekozen MB49 cellen voor onze studies. Het is belangrijk op te merken dat MB49 cellen werden geïsoleerd uit een mannelijke muis en orthotope implantaties zijn anatomische redenen uitgevoerd bij vrouwelijke muizen. Dit heeft het voordeel van gemakkelijke identificatie van de geïmplanteerde cellen met markers van het Y-chromosoom, maar het geslacht mismatch kan een nadeel voor immunologische studies. De blaas epitheel wordt omzoomd door een glycosaminoglycaan (GAG) laag, die fungeert als een barrière voor infectie door micro-organismen. Deze barrière kan ook interfereren met de implantatie van tumorcellen en verscheidene methoden ontwikkeld om dit probleem (tabel 1) te overwinnen. Elektrocauterisatie is uitgebreid gebruikt als fysieke middelen voor de GAG-laag 5-13 en een protocol demonstreren elektrocauterisatie is onlangs gepubliceerd in Jupiter 14 verstoren. Echter moet een elektrocauterisatie apparaat niet beschikbaar, chemische middelen aan de G vernietigenAG laag, zoals zilvernitraat of poly-L-lysine kan ook 15-24. Tumoren effectief vastgesteld door een korte blootstelling van de blaas een kleine hoeveelheid zilvernitraat (5-10 pl, 0,15-1,0 M, ~ 10 seconden) of langer contact met poly-L-lysine (100 pl 0,1 mg / ml gedurende 20 min) (tabel 1). Hier beschrijven we een werkwijze die trypsine gebruikt geïmplanteerd MB49 cellen vergemakkelijken. In een poging om therapeutische toepassingen voor blaaskanker verbeteren heeft gentherapie veel aandacht vergaard. Vanuit een klinisch standpunt, blaaskanker is een ideaal doel voor gentherapie vanwege gemakkelijke toegankelijkheid van het orgaan en zich lokaal leveren van de lading. Virale vectoren die zijn onderzocht voor blaaskanker gentherapie omvatten een oncolytische herpes simplex virus 25, retrovirus 26, kanariepokkenvirus 27, vaccinia virus, AAV, en adenovirus 28. In het tweede deel van ons protocol beschrijven we een werkwijze voor virale aflevering die vrijwel identiek is aan instillatie van de tumorcellen. Van belang in ons lab is de ontwikkeling van nieuwe benaderingen om genaflevering, die wij beoordelen via bioluminescentie met een adenovirale vector die een luciferase transgen uitdrukt. Echter, de methode van blaaskatheterisatie worden gebruikt voor levering van verschillende agentia en daarom heeft brede toepasbaarheid.

Blaaskanker is de tweede meest voorkomende kanker van het urogenitale kanaal en nieuwe therapeutische benaderingen die kunnen verminderen herhaling en progressie nodig zijn. De tumormicromilieu kan significante invloed op tumorontwikkeling reactie. Het is derhalve vaak wenselijk om tumorcellen groeien in het orgaan waaruit zij afkomstig. Dit protocol beschrijft een orthotopic model van blaaskanker, waarin MB49 muizen blaascarcinoom cellen worden bijgebracht in de blaas via katheterisatie. Succesvolle tumorcel implantatie bij dit model moet verstoring van de glycosaminoglycaan beschermende laag, die kan worden bereikt door fysische of chemische middelen. In ons protocol de blaas wordt behandeld met trypsine vóór cel instillatie. Catheterisatie van de blaas kan ook gebruikt worden om geneesmiddelen te leveren zodra de tumoren vastgesteld. Dit protocol beschrijft de afgifte van een adenovirale construct dat een luciferase reportergen tot expressie. Terwijl our protocol is geoptimaliseerd voor de korte-termijn studies en richt zich op gentherapie, de methodologie van muis blaaskatheterisatie heeft brede toepassingen.

Ex Vivo Culture of Patient Tissue &amp; Examination of Gene Delivery

This video describes the use of patient tissue as an ex vivo model for the study of gene delivery. Fresh patient tissue obtained at the time of surgery is sliced and maintained in culture. The ex vivo model system allows for the physical delivery of genes into intact patient tissue and gene expression is analysed by bioluminescence imaging using the IVIS detection system. The bioluminescent detection system demonstrates rapid and accurate quantification of gene expression within individual slices without the need for tissue sacrifice. This slice tissue culture system may be used in a variety of tissue types including normal and malignant tissue and allows us to study the effects of the heterogeneous nature of intact tissue and the high degree of variability between individual patients. This model system could be used in certain situations as an alternative to animal models and as a complementary preclinical mode prior to entering clinical trial.

An Orthotopic Model of Murine Bladder Cancer

In this straightforward procedure, bladder tumors are established in female C57 mice through the use of catheterization, local cauterization, and subsequent cell adhesion. After their bladders are transurethrally catheterized and drained, animals are again catheterized to permit insertion of a platinum wire into bladders without damaging the urethra or bladder. The catheters are made of Teflon to serve as an insulator for the wire, which will conduct electrical current into the bladder to create a burn injury. An electrocautery unit is used to deliver 2.5W to the exposed end of the wire, burning away extracellular layers and providing attachment sites for carcinoma cells that are delivered in suspension to the bladder through a subsequent catheterization. Cells remain in the bladder for 90 minutes, after which the catheters are removed and the bladders allowed to drain naturally. The development of tumor is monitored via ultrasound. Specific attention is paid to the catheterization technique in the accompanying video.

Bladder tumors are established in female mice in a minimally invasive fashion through catheterization, local cauterization, and subsequent adhesion of carcinoma cells to the burn sites.

Multi-photon Imaging of Tumor Cell Invasion in an Orthotopic Mouse Model of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Loco-regional invasion of head and neck cancer is linked to metastatic risk and presents a difficult challenge in designing and implementing patient management strategies. Orthotopic mouse models of oral cancer have been developed to facilitate the study of factors that impact invasion and serve as model system for evaluating anti-tumor therapeutics. In these systems, visualization of disseminated tumor cells within oral cavity tissues has typically been conducted by either conventional histology or with in vivo bioluminescent methods. A primary drawback of these techniques is the inherent inability to accurately visualize and quantify early tumor cell invasion arising from the primary site in three dimensions. Here we describe a protocol that combines an established model for squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue (SCOT) with two-photon imaging to allow multi-vectorial visualization of lingual tumor spread. The OSC-19 head and neck tumor cell line was stably engineered to express the F-actin binding peptide LifeAct fused to the mCherry fluorescent protein (LifeAct-mCherry). Fox1nu/nu mice injected with these cells reliably form tumors that allow the tongue to be visualized by ex-vivo application of two-photon microscopy. This technique allows for the orthotopic visualization of the tumor mass and locally invading cells in excised tongues without disruption of the regional tumor microenvironment. In addition, this system allows for the quantification of tumor cell invasion by calculating distances that invaded cells move from the primary tumor site. Overall this procedure provides an enhanced model system for analyzing factors that contribute to SCOT invasion and therapeutic treatments tailored to prevent local invasion and distant metastatic spread. This method also has the potential to be ultimately combined with other imaging modalities in an in vivo setting.

A comprehensive overview of the techniques involved in generating a mouse model of oral cancer and quantitative monitoring of tumor invasion within the tongue through multi-photon microscopy of labeled cells is presented. This system can serve as a useful platform for the molecular assessment and drug efficacy of anti-invasive compounds.

Combination Radiotherapy in an Orthotopic Mouse Brain Tumor Model

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are the most common and aggressive adult primary brain tumors1. In recent years there has been substantial progress in the understanding of the mechanics of tumor invasion, and direct intracerebral inoculation of tumor provides the opportunity of observing the invasive process in a physiologically appropriate environment2. As far as human brain tumors are concerned, the orthotopic models currently available are established either by stereotaxic injection of cell suspensions or implantation of a solid piece of tumor through a complicated craniotomy procedure3. In our technique we harvest cells from tissue culture to create a cell suspension used to implant directly into the brain. The duration of the surgery is approximately 30 minutes, and as the mouse needs to be in a constant surgical plane, an injectable anesthetic is used. The mouse is placed in a stereotaxic jig made by Stoetling (figure 1). After the surgical area is cleaned and prepared, an incision is made; and the bregma is located to determine the location of the craniotomy. The location of the craniotomy is 2 mm to the right and 1 mm rostral to the bregma. The depth is 3 mm from the surface of the skull, and cells are injected at a rate of 2 &mu;l every 2 minutes. The skin is sutured with 5-0 PDS, and the mouse is allowed to wake up on a heating pad. From our experience, depending on the cell line, treatment can take place from 7-10 days after surgery. Drug delivery is dependent on the drug composition. For radiation treatment the mice are anesthetized, and put into a custom made jig. Lead covers the mouse's body and exposes only the brain of the mouse. The study of tumorigenesis and the evaluation of new therapies for GBM require accurate and reproducible brain tumor animal models. Thus we use this orthotopic brain model to study the interaction of the microenvironment of the brain and the tumor, to test the effectiveness of different therapeutic agents with and without radiation.

The purpose of this article is to describe the use of an orthotopic glioblastoma model for chemoradiation studies. This article will go though cell processing, implanting, and radiotherapy of the mouse using an intracranial model.

An Orthotopic Bladder Tumor Model and the Evaluation of Intravesical saRNA Treatment

We present a novel method for treating bladder cancer with intravesically delivered small activating RNA (saRNA) in an orthotopic xenograft mouse bladder tumor model. The mouse model is established by urethral catheterization under inhaled general anesthetic. Chemical burn is then introduced to the bladder mucosa using intravesical silver nitrate solution to disrupt the bladder glycosaminoglycan layer and allows cells to attach. Following several washes with sterile water, human bladder cancer KU-7-luc2-GFP cells are instilled through the catheter into the bladder to dwell for 2 hours. Subsequent growth of bladder tumors is confirmed and monitored by in vivo bladder ultrasound and bioluminescent imaging. The tumors are then treated intravesically with saRNA formulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). Tumor growth is monitored with ultrasound and bioluminescence. All steps of this procedure are demonstrated in the accompanying video.

An Orthotopic Mouse Model of Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma

Several types of animal models of human thyroid carcinomas have been established, including subcutaneous xenograft and orthotopic implantation of cancer cells into immunodeficient mice. Subcutaneous xenograft models have been valuable for preclinical screening and evaluation of new therapeutic treatments. There are a number of advantages to using a subcutaneous model; 1) rapid, 2) reproducible, and 3) tumor establishment, growth, and response to therapeutic agents may be monitored by visual inspection. However, substantial evidence has shed light on the short-comings of subcutaneous xenograft models1-3. For instance, medicinal treatments demonstrating curative properties in subcutaneous xenograft models often have no notable impact on the human disease. The microenvironment of the site of xenographic transplantation or injection lies at the heart of this dissimilarity.
Orthotopic tumor xenograft models provide a more biologically relevant context in which to study the disease. The advantages of implanting diseased cells or tissue into their anatomical origin equivalent within a host animal includes a suitable site for tumor-host interactions, development of disease-related metastases and the ability to examine site-specific influence on investigational therapeutic remedies. Therefore, orthotopic xenograft models harbor far more clinical value because they closely reproduce human disease. For these reasons, a number of groups have taken advantage of an orthotopic thyroid cancer model as a research tool4-7.
Here, we describe an approach that establishes an orthotopic model for the study of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC), which is highly invasive, resists treatment, and is virtually fatal in all diagnosed patients. Cultured ATC cells are prepared as a dissociated cellular suspension in a solution containing a basement membrane matrix. A small volume is slowly injected into the right thyroid gland. Overall appearance and health of the mice are monitored to ensure minimal post-operative complications and to gauge pathological penetrance of the cancer. Mice are sacrificed at 4 weeks, and tissue is collected for histological analysis. Animals may be taken at later time-points to examine more advance progression of the disease. Production of this orthotopic mouse model establishes a platform that accomplishes two objectives: 1) further our understanding of ATC pathology, and 2) screen current and future therapeutic agents for efficacy in combating ATC.

Generation of an orthotopic mouse model of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma is described here. This technique employs surgical placement of human anaplastic thyroid cancer cells into the thyroid of immunodeficient mice, thus creating a more clinically relevant setting to study disease progression as well as screen innovative therapeutic interventions.

Bioluminescent Orthotopic Model of Pancreatic Cancer Progression

Pancreatic cancer has an extremely poor five-year survival rate of 4-6%. New therapeutic options are critically needed and depend on improved understanding of pancreatic cancer biology. To better understand the interaction of cancer cells with the pancreatic microenvironment, we demonstrate an orthotopic model of pancreatic cancer that permits non-invasive monitoring of cancer progression. Luciferase-tagged pancreatic cancer cells are resuspended in Matrigel and delivered into the pancreatic tail during laparotomy. Matrigel solidifies at body temperature to prevent leakage of cancer cells during injection. Primary tumor growth and metastasis to distant organs are monitored following injection of the luciferase substrate luciferin, using in vivo imaging of bioluminescence emission from the cancer cells. In vivo imaging also may be used to track primary tumor recurrence after resection. This orthotopic model is suited to both syngeneic and xenograft models and may be used in pre-clinical trials to investigate the impact of novel anti-cancer therapeutics on the growth of the primary pancreatic tumor and metastasis.

Improved understanding of pancreatic cancer biology is critically needed to enable the development of better therapeutic options to treat pancreatic cancer. To address this need, we demonstrate an orthotopic model of pancreatic cancer that permits non-invasive monitoring of cancer progression using in vivo bioluminescence imaging.

An Orthotopic Murine Model of Human Prostate Cancer Metastasis

Our laboratory has developed a novel orthotopic implantation model of human prostate cancer (PCa). As PCa death is not due to the primary tumor, but rather the formation of distinct metastasis, the ability to effectively model this progression pre-clinically is of high value. In this model, cells are directly implanted into the ventral lobe of the prostate in Balb/c athymic mice, and allowed to progress for 4-6 weeks. At experiment termination, several distinct endpoints can be measured, such as size and molecular characterization of the primary tumor, the presence and quantification of circulating tumor cells in the blood and bone marrow, and formation of metastasis to the lung. In addition to a variety of endpoints, this model provides a picture of a cells ability to invade and escape the primary organ, enter and survive in the circulatory system, and implant and grow in a secondary site. This model has been used effectively to measure metastatic response to both changes in protein expression as well as to response to small molecule therapeutics, in a short turnaround time.

This orthotopic model of human prostate cancer allows for quantification of tumor size, circulating tumor cells, and formation of distinct metastasis to the lung. As cells must escape the primary organ, enter the blood stream, and implant into a secondary site, this model effectively recapitulates the scenario in humans.

Minimally Invasive Establishment of Murine Orthotopic Bladder Xenografts

Orthotopic bladder cancer xenografts are the gold standard to study molecular cellular manipulations and new therapeutic agents&#160;in vivo. Suitable cell lines are inoculated either by intravesical instillation (model of nonmuscle invasive growth) or intramural injection into the bladder wall (model of invasive growth). Both procedures are complex and highly time-consuming. Additionally, the superficial model has its shortcomings due to the lack of cell lines that are tumorigenic following instillation. Intramural injection, on the other hand, is marred by the invasiveness of the procedure and the associated morbidity for the host mouse.
With these shortcomings in mind, we modified previous methods to develop a minimally invasive approach for creating orthotopic bladder cancer xenografts. Using ultrasound guidance we have successfully performed percutaneous inoculation of the bladder cancer cell lines UM-UC1, UM-UC3 and UM-UC13 into 50 athymic nude. We have been able to demonstrate that this approach is time efficient, precise and safe. With this technique, initially a space is created under the bladder mucosa with PBS, and tumor cells are then injected into this space in a second step. Tumor growth is monitored at regular intervals with bioluminescence imaging and ultrasound. The average tumor volumes increased steadily in in all but one of our 50 mice over the study period.
In our institution, this novel approach, which allows bladder cancer xenograft inoculation in a minimally-invasive, rapid and highly precise way, has replaced the traditional model.

The established technique to inoculate primary invasive orthotopic bladder cancer xenografts requires laparotomy and mobilization of the bladder. This procedure inflicts significant morbidity on the mice, is technically challenging and time-consuming. We therefore developed a high-precision, percutaneous approach utilizing ultrasound guidance.

Urinary Bladder Distention Evoked Visceromotor Responses as a Model for Bladder Pain in Mice

Approximately 3-8 million people in the United States suffer from interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), a debilitating condition characterized by increased urgency and frequency of urination, as well as nocturia and general pelvic pain, especially upon bladder filling or voiding. Despite years of research, the cause of IC/BPS remains elusive and treatment strategies are unable to provide complete relief to patients. In order to study nervous system contributions to the condition, many animal models have been developed to mimic the pain and symptoms associated with IC/BPS. One such murine model is urinary bladder distension (UBD). In this model, compressed air of a specific pressure is delivered to the bladder of a lightly anesthetized animal over a set period of time. Throughout the procedure, wires in the superior oblique abdominal muscles record electrical activity from the muscle. This activity is known as the visceromotor response (VMR) and is a reliable and reproducible measure of nociception. Here, we describe the steps necessary to perform this technique in mice including surgical manipulations, physiological recording, and data analysis. With the use of this model, the coordination between primary sensory neurons, spinal cord secondary afferents, and higher central nervous system areas involved in bladder pain can be unraveled. This basic science knowledge can then be clinically translated to treat patients suffering from IC/BPS.

Approximately 3-8 million people in the United States suffer from interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), a debilitating condition characterized in part by pelvic pain. In order to study nervous system contributions to the condition, a physiological model of urinary bladder pain is used in mice and rats.
