General description
In 2000, an immune-competent syngeneic mouse model for ovarian cancer was reported . Mouse ovarian surface epithelial cells (MOSEC) isolated from C57BL/6 mice were found to spontaneously transform into malignant tumorigenic cells following prolonged passages in vitro . Late passage MOSEC lost the classical “cobblestone” contact-inhibited in vitro properties reminiscent of normal epithelial cells and instead grew as multi-layered cell clusters indicative of transformed cells. Intraperitoneal injection of late passaged MOSEC into athymic and normal, immune-intact, syngeneic C57BL/6 mice gave rise to tumors throughout the abdominal cavity like those observed in women with Stage III and IV cancer . MOSEC are thus useful syngeneic mouse models to study the role of the immune system in the establishment and progression of ovarian cancer.
