Orthotopic Mouse Models

Description: 

In orthotopic xenograft models, tumor cells are either implanted or injected into the equivalent organ from which the cancer originated. The orthotopic models have similar tumor microenvironment as the original tumor and are therefore deemed to more closely resemble the human tumorigenesis
