Analysis of differentiation therapeutic approaches on murine breast cancer organoids
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In this experiment, we have tested the effect of microRNA-203 as a potential differentiation inducer in breast cancer organoids, derived from the PyMT mouse model. MMTV-PyVT transgenic mice express the Polyoma Virus middle T antigen under the direction of the mouse mammary tumor virus promoter/enhancer. Hemizygous MMTV-PyMT females develop palpable mammary tumors which metastasize to the lung. These mice have high penetrance of early onset of mammary cancer compared to other mammary tumor models. PyMT mice were crossed with miR-203 knock-in mice, where miR-203 expression is induced upon DOX treatment. Thus, organoids derived from the mammary gland tumors of such mouse model where evaluated in vitro. miR-203 expression was therefore induced by Doxycycline in vitro, and compared to other well-defined differentiation media for breast cancer tissue, such as the mammary epithelial cell culture media and kit (CC-2551B; Lonza).
