Project description:To investigate immunoediting at the primary tumour, we used DNA barcoding combined with NGS. By stably integrating 4T1 murine cancer cell line with 250000 unique DNA barcodes (1 barcode per cell), we can trace how barcode (and therefore subclonal) diversity changes over time and after treatment with immunotherapy.
Project description:To investigate immunoediting at the primary tumour, we used DNA barcoding combined with NGS. By stably integrating 4T1 murine cancer cell line with 5000 unique DNA barcodes (1 barcode per cell), we can trace how barcode (and therefore subclonal) diversity changes over time and after treatment with immunotherapy.

By stably integrating 4T1 murine cancer cell line with 5000 unique DNA barcodes (1 barcode per cell), we can trace how barcode (and therefore subclonal) diversity changes over time and in reponse to the endogenous immune system in immunocompetent mice compared to immunocompromised mice.

By stably integrating 4T1 murine cancer cell line with 250000 unique DNA barcodes (1 barcode per cell), we can trace how barcode (and therefore subclonal) diversity changes over time and in the presence of the endogenous immune system, compared to immunocompromised mice.

Project description:By using DNA barcoding to trace individual cancer cells from the 4T1 murine model of cancer, we were able to identify two cancer cell clones that were highly immune evasive and resistant to immune destruction both by the endogenous immune system and when treating with immunotherapy. We isolated these clones (IE1 and IE2) from the bulk parental population for further characterisation. We wondered if copy number variations could explain the phenotype we observed, so we carried out WGS to investigate this.
